April 2, 2024
Vontae Davis, a former NFL cornerback who became famous for his decision to retire in the middle of a game, has died suddenly at the age of just 35. The body of the former Miami Dolphins, Indianapolis Colts and BuffaloBills star was found lifeless on Monday in his villa in Florida, in Southwest Ranches, northwest of Miami: the athlete's grandmother found him. After seeing Davis on the ground, the grandmother called the police who went to the scene and started a preliminary investigation, excluding, for now, the hypothesis of crime as the cause of death. The most accepted hypothesis at the moment is that the athlete may have had a sudden illness. Many on the web are currently wondering whether adverse reactions to the Covid vaccine are behind the sudden death. Unfortunately, no clear information can be found on this matter. After retiring, he became the manager of a holistic health club and published a children's book called "The Middle School Rules of Vontae Davis."

Grandmother suddenly dies of rare brain disease with 100% fatality rate and no cure
April 2, 2024
A Michigan grandmother has died from a rare degenerative brain disorder similar to mad cow disease – which has a 100% fatality rate and no cure. Arlene VonMyhr, 55, and her husband, Gary, celebrated the University of Michigan winning the national football championship on Jan. 8 before she woke up with stroke symptoms, MLive reported. After being sent home from Byron Center undiagnosed, VonMyhr was rushed to the ER four times over the following two weeks with slurred speech and balance problems, according to the outlet. On her fourth visit Jan. 26, she didn’t leave the hospital until she died on Feb. 19. “It was a really rapid five weeks of decline,” Gary VonMyhr, her high school sweetheart and husband of 34 years, told MLive. Metro Health doctors conducted a lumbar puncture that finally diagnosed her with Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease, a rare degenerative brain disease that is always fatal and has no cure, the outlet reported. “For almost everyone, unfortunately, it’s an extremely rapid course,” Brian Appleby, director of the National Prion Disease Pathology Surveillance Center, told the outlet. About 85% of the cases are reportedly “sporadic” because they happen without an apparent cause and most of the remaining ones come from a genetic mutation of a prion protein, according to MLive. “It causes brain damage. It causes brain cells to die. And we don’t necessarily understand why,” Appleby said.
