Did B.J. Thompson collapse suddenly from a COVID-19 vaccine-induced cardiac arrest?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!
Claim : B.J. Thompson Collapsed From Vaccine Cardiac Arrest!
Right after news broke that B.J. Thompson collapsed suddenly during a team meeting, some people immediately claimed or suggested that the Kansas City Chiefs defensive end suffered a COVID-19 vaccine-induced cardiac arrest!
McCullough Foundation : JUST IN – 25-year-old Kansas City Chiefs defensive end B.J. Thompson suffers a seizure and cardiac arrest during a team meeting.
Type of COVID-19 vaccine administered, number of doses, and batch information should be disclosed to investigate if this is related to COVID-19 vaccination.

Truth : B.J. Thompson Did Not Collapse From Vaccine Cardiac Arrest!
It’s now tradition for anti-vaccination activists to blame all athlete deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.
Here are the reasons why this is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccine activists…
Fact #1 : B.J. Thompson Had A Seizure
B.J. Thompson (born Brandon Thompson Jr. on 23 March 1999) is a 25 year-old American football defensive end for the Kansas City Chiefs in the NFL (National Football League).
On Thursday, June 6, 2024, B.J. Thompson had a seizure during a special teams meeting, before going into cardiac arrest. The Kansas City Chiefs medical staff quickly stabilised him, and B.J. Thompson was taken to a hospital, where he is in stable condition.
To be clear – B.J. Thompson did not collapse from a cardiac arrest, like Damar Hamlin, or Bronny James. He suffered a seizure, before going into cardiac arrest, as reported by NFL Networks’s Tom Pelissero:
The #Chiefs canceled all team activities today after a backup defensive lineman had a seizure in a special teams meeting and went into cardiac arrest, per sources.
#Chiefs DL BJ Thompson is in stable condition after suffering a seizure and going into cardiac arrest during a meeting this morning, per source.

Fact #2 : Seizures Can Lead To Cardiac Arrest
It is important to note that B.J. Thompson suffered a seizure before going into cardiac arrest, because sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is a major cause of death for people with epilepsy, or people suffering from seizures:
Among patients with epilepsy, sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is a major cause of death. It is commonly thought that SCA in epilepsy occurs after a seizure…
Fact #3 : COVID-19 Vaccines Do Not Cause Seizures
To be clear – COVID-19 vaccines do not cause seizures or epilepsy. There is no plausible or known pathogenesis for any vaccine to cause seizures.
Naturally, people claiming or suggesting that COVID-19 vaccines cause seizures, are unable to detail how it is possible, or provide any actual evidence. They want to convince us it’s true, but are too baffled to explain how, or show us any evidence.
In contrast, tens of billions of doses of COVID-19 vaccines have been administered worldwide, and extended monitoring over the last 3 years have shown that they do not cause seizures.
Fact #4 : Athletes Are At Higher Risk Of Cardiac Arrest
While athletes appears to be the epitome of healthy young people, many are at risk of dying from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA).
In fact, studies show that sudden cardiac arrest is the leading medical cause of death in young athletes. On average, about 2,000 young people in the United States (less than 24 years old) die from sudden cardiac arrest every year, and many do not have previously-known heart disease.
That’s why many states in the United States enacted laws requiring automated external defibrillators (AED) to be made available in health clubs, gyms, schools, and other public places.

Fact #5 : Unknown If B.J. Thompson Was Vaccinated Against COVID-19
Despite suggestions that B.J. Thompson was fully-vaccinated, there isn’t any actual evidence that he ever received the COVID-19 vaccine. He certainly did not post about getting the vaccine on his X account (formerly Twitter)!
It is possible that B.J. Thompson was unvaccinated against COVID-19, because the COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United States. The NFL also did not require players or coaches to be vaccinated against COVID-19, even though it did require all employees who have contact with the players to be fully-vaccinated.
Ironically, many people who were injured or died suddenly were actually unvaccinated, like Kris Jordan, Aaron Carter, Kirstie Alley, Stephan Bonnar, Shane Macaulay, David Wayne Burleson, and Kaden Clymer.
Until and unless he (or his family) reveals his COVID-19 vaccination status, anyone who tells you that BJ Thompson was vaccinated or otherwise, is likely lying to you. None of us know that.
Fact #6 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear Within Hours / Days
Even if B.J. Thompson was fully-vaccinated against COVID-19, he would have received his doses more than three years ago!
He cannot possibly have suffered from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not months later.
Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination.
Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days or weeks.
The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.
Your own immune system will identify the spike proteins as foreign, and destroy them within a matter of days, although some may last for up to a few weeks. This is part of how vaccines teach your immune system to identify the enemy and destroy it.
