The research study and conclusions drawn from it by Ladapo are seriously flawed:

The guidance from the Florida health department came in a terse release at 6:12 on Friday evening, ahead of a three-day weekend: Joseph Ladapo, the state’s top health official, warned young adult men to stop taking coronavirus vaccines by Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech, citing an “abnormally high risk” of heart-related deaths.

But Ladapo’s recommendation — extrapolated from a short state analysis that has not been peer-reviewed, carries no authors and warns that its findings are “preliminary” and “should be interpreted with caution” — was swiftly condemned by medical and public health leaders, who said the Florida surgeon general’s announcement was politics masquerading as science and could lead Americans to forgo lifesaving interventions.

More than a dozen experts interviewed by The Washington Post — including specialists in vaccines, patient safety and study design — listed concerns with Florida’s analysis, saying it relies on information gleaned from frequently inaccurate death certificates rather than medical records, skews the results by trying to exclude anyone with covid-19 or a covid-related death, and draws conclusions from a total of 20 cardiac-related deaths in men 18-to-39 that occurred within four weeks of vaccination. Experts noted the deaths might have been caused by other factors, including underlying illnesses or undetected covid.

“We’re talking about a very small number of deaths. An extra death or two would potentially change these results,” said Robert Wachter, chair of the department of medicine at the University of California at San Francisco and co-author of a patient-safety textbook used in many medical schools. “I’m hesitant to even call it a paper; it isn’t published anywhere. The idea that [the analysis] … is being used to change policy — it does not have the scientific chops to do that.”

“If you submitted that to a peer-reviewed journal, unless you were paying them to publish it, it would get rejected,” added Daniel Salmon, who leads the Institute of Vaccine Safety at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. He called Florida’s report “a dangerous thing to do.”

From the Post article:
"Twitter briefly removed Ladapo’s post touting the study over the weekend, citing it as misinformation, before restoring it hours later..."

For those interested, Ed Dowd is a financial analyst who saw the big increase in 'excess deaths' within the US, and worldwide, and delved into the data. Here he is on the Dr. Drew podcast discussing the data, which includes:
- 20% excess deaths worldwide
- 40% excess deaths in healthy, working age people (healthy people in a group insurance plan)
- 50% excess deaths for Millenials, which he hypothesized is tied to vaccinations
(elderly had increased deaths in 2020; youth serious events spiked in 2021)
- from FOIA releases, clinical trial data for one vaccine showed for one hospitalization prevented, there were 4.5 serious events, including heart attacks, death, etc.
- 36:00 mark - large Thailand study - did extensive prospective studies of young people 13-18 before being vaccinated, and subsequently after vaccination, 29.4% developed cardiac abnormalities.

For those of you who are interested here is an article from Reuters which is critical of Ed Dowd's research:

FTR, I heard him say his theory was that the excess deaths were partly or largely due to vaccinations.

In our lifetime, I can't recall a medical opinion being banned from discussion and labeled as "misinformation".

Lancet - a foundational medical publication - had to retract a fraudulent story on HCQ. Baffling how such a fraudulent study (made up?) could make it through multiple layers of fact and source checking.

[Edit] FWIW, I am not pushing HCQ. Ivermectin may actually be very effective - dozens of African countries are using it for river blindness - and they had much lower infection rates and mortality from Covid.

Well crap, I guess I better get to the un-vaccination clinic.
