A study published Thursday found weekly emergency call counts for cardiac arrest & acute coronary syndromes in Israel were significantly associated with the rates of 1st & 2nd COVID-19 injection doses administered to 16-39-year-olds but were NOT with COVID-19 infection rates.

From Scientific Reports:
Cardiovascular adverse conditions are caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infections and reported as side-effects of the COVID-19 vaccines. Enriching current vaccine safety surveillance systems with additional data sources may improve the understanding of COVID-19 vaccine safety. Using a unique dataset from Israel National Emergency Medical Services (EMS) from 2019 to 2021, the study aims to evaluate the association between the volume of cardiac arrest and acute coronary syndrome EMS calls in the 16–39-year-old population with potential factors including COVID-19 infection and vaccination rates. An increase of over 25% was detected in both call types during January–May 2021, compared with the years 2019–2020. Using Negative Binomial regression models, the weekly emergency call counts were significantly associated with the rates of 1st and 2nd vaccine doses administered to this age group but were not with COVID-19 infection rates. While not establishing causal relationships, the findings raise concerns regarding vaccine-induced undetected severe cardiovascular side-effects and underscore the already established causal relationship between vaccines and myocarditis, a frequent cause of unexpected cardiac arrest in young individuals. Surveillance of potential vaccine side-effects and COVID-19 outcomes should incorporate EMS and other health data to identify public health trends (e.g., increased in EMS calls), and promptly investigate potential underlying causes.
Cardiac Arrest Calls
Acute Coronary Syndrome Calls
And this alarming data was first available in August 2021.
BTW, this data was out last August, yet for ‘some reason’ it didnt get published until now. https://t.co/6fIJNgKPtt

New concerning results, Israel 2021 (Prof. Retsef Levi)
MDA Emergency calls:
25% increase in Cardiac arrests & Heart attacks (16-29).
83.6% increase in Heart attacks (Women 20-29).
According to the study, this increase was correlated with Mass vaccination.https://t.co/SWVbjJUSnw https://t.co/ezQp0UJia2 pic.twitter.com/aQrGZVlw96— Ran Israeli (@RanIsraeli) August 10, 2021
2/ Background rate is
p = 35/542K = 1/15,486
If all 542K were vaccinated, excess rate (v-p) would be
(v-p)’=(53-35)/542K
But since only 70% of 542K were vaccinated
(v-p)=(53-35)/(542K*70%) = 1/21,000
a 74% increase relative to background.https://t.co/aarWumyQyC

5/end Concluding:
The estimated vaccine-induced heart attack rate in men aged 20-29 is
1/21K with 95% CI (1/131K – 1/11K)
This means point estimate 74% increase relative to background, and between 12% to 136% with 95% confidence. pic.twitter.com/FRyOK98A8S

7/ It seems that a substantial % of vaccine induced cardiac arrests occur in the 1st week after vaccination.
That kind of data allows vaccine induced heart attack rate estimation without using the background rate of years 2019 and 2020.

9/
p = 1/330K
with p estimated solving for
53 = (v-p) * (542K*70%) + (1-(1-p)**21.4)) * 542K
where 21.4 are the weeks of the period Jan-May 2021. pic.twitter.com/WLLJrpxdXi

Somehow these disturbing figures from one of the world’s most vaccinated countries gets published eight months later.
From Scientific Reports:
The main finding of this study concerns with increases of over 25% in both the number of CA calls and ACS calls of people in the 16–39 age group during the COVID-19 vaccination rollout in Israel (January–May, 2021), compared with the same period of time in prior years (2019 and 2020), as shown in Table 1. Moreover, there is a robust and statistically significant association between the weekly CA and ACS call counts, and the rates of 1st and 2nd vaccine doses administered to this age group. At the same time there is no observed statistically significant association between COVID-19 infection rates and the CA and ACS call counts. This result is aligned with previous findings which show increases in overall CA incidence were not always associated with higher COVID-19 infections rates at a population level35,49,50, as well as the stability of hospitalization rates related to myocardial infarction throughout the initial COVID-19 wave compared to pre-pandemic baselines in Israel51. These results also are mirrored by a report of increased emergency department visits with cardiovascular complaints during the vaccination rollout in Germany52 as well as increased EMS calls for cardiac incidents in Scotland53.
The visuals in Figs. 1 and 2 support and reinforce these findings. The increase in CA and ACS calls starting early January 2021 seems to track closely the administration of 2nd dose vaccines. This observation is consistent with prior findings that associated more significant adverse events, including myocarditis to the 2nd dose of the vaccine19. A second increase in the CA and ACS call counts is observed starting April 18th, 2021, which seems to track an increase of single-dose vaccination to individuals who recovered from COVID-19 infections. This is consistent with prior findings that suggest that the immune response generated by a single dose on recovered individuals is generally stronger than the response to the 2nd vaccine dose in individuals, who were not exposed to COVID-19 infection54. Additionally, the graphs emphasize the absence of correlation between the call counts and COVID-19 infection counts, which is most clearly seen during the two major pandemic waves in 2020.
The CDC has admitted a link between COVID-19 injections and myocarditis in young recipients.
