Army linked soldier's heart condition to Covid vaccine, former CBS News journalist reports
June 24, 2024
Washington, D.C. — The U.S. Army and National Guard acknowledged a soldier’s “debilitating heart condition” is connected to the COVID-19 vaccine, according to a new report by former CBS reporter Catherine Herridge. Army National Guard Specialist Karoline Stancik, 24, has reportedly racked up over $70,000 in medical debt after being hospitalized for heart complications. She suffered her first heart attack after receiving the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. An Army memo about Stancik’s situation acquired by Herridge shows she had been diagnosed with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or "POTS." Stancik described having intense adverse reactions to her vaccinations, including high heart rate, neuropathic pain and difficulty breathing. She was released from active duty in 2022, costing her medical benefits and a salary. The effects she experienced were so detrimental to her health, Stancik said, that she considered suicide. She now requires a pacemaker and heart surgery. An Army spokesperson reportedly told Herridge that Stancik could have remained on active duty while receiving treatment. She denied having ever been counseled about this option. Neither the Pentagon nor Moderna responded to a request for comment from TND Monday.

Kansas City, Kansas - A horrific scene unfolded at Children's Mercy Park on June 25 when an official collapsed during a game between Canada and Peru.

After being tended to by medical personnel for a moment, he was taken away on a stretcher. At this time it's unclear what happened and Fox Sports decided against showing a replay of the official collapsing. Temperatures in Kansas City reached over 90 degrees on Tuesday afternoon and Ventura was reportedly working in the sunny side of the stadium.
