NDA Journal 4 Editor’s Message government apparatchiks arbitrarily dub a “vaccine.”18 The report that dentists worldwide personally refused the experimental formulations more than other health professions is heartening in that dentists as a group appear to be circumspect about accurately translating the experimental formulation spin.19,20 Now we know, secondary to the most accurate mortality tables in the world, those of the life insurance industry,21,22 that not only did those who received the experimental formulations die from Covid, but are now known to be dying at a greater rate from all causes than those who did not.23,24 The formulations were neither safe nor effective, no matter how many unplanned boosters were subsequently recommended. The statistically significant increase of adolescent inflammatory myocardial disease after administration of the experimental formulations is devastating,25,26,27 as acknowledged by more and more cardiologists.28,29 Many other patient populations are seeing similar life-threatening effects. Particularly sad are the sequels of pregnant women that accepted the narrative from the government (CDC) and professional societies (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, Society for MaternalFetal Medicine, the United Kingdom’s Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists) that the injections were not only safe but even strongly recommended,30 all without any meaningful studies in place. There have been more VAERS Covid experimental formulation reports submitted in two years than for all other historically recognized vaccines since 2000.31,32 This and issues such as the rise of inflammatory heart conditions may prompt dentists to modify their office health history and physical examination (H&P) forms. » One change could be by inserting a disclaimer that the dental office cardiovascular system H&P is more limited than one might receive via a cardiologist utilizing a 12-lead ECG and laboratory blood work studies. Further, dentists who are trained to do H&Ps, often as a public service for entities like the Boy33 and Girl Scouts, church groups, school athletes, etc., may want to re-evaluate that voluntary practice. Members of the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) Sports Medicine (SM) faculty annually evaluate UNLV’s college athletes, generally a singularly healthy crowd. In 1987, UNLV SM was asked to examine Simon Keith, a great soccer player from England.34 Keith offered a history that included a heart transplant and a pacemaker. He wanted clearance to run around for 90-minute games at 115° in Las Vegas. Keith was referred to the SM cardiology consultant. With trepidation from everyone involved, except Keith, he was ultimately cleared to play and became an All-American for Coach Barry Barto. Now, adolescents that have been potentially compromised by any of the experimental Covid formulations perhaps should not be cleared for activity that requires an H&P without a full cardiac work-up, including a 12-lead ECG and hematologic lab studies. Sudden cardiac compromise under stress is an increasing phenomenon in this group of patients. No dentist needs to be reminded that many patients avoid dentistry all- together at times because of severe anxiety. Are these patients now at greater risk of cardiovascular compromise during dental visits? The NDAJ welcomes circumspect commentary. Fight On!0
