A total of 19,740 autopsies were completed in the study period: 12,395 in subjects age 18-65 years (adults) and 385 in subjects age 7-17 years (children). There were 201 sports-related adult deaths at an incidence rate of 0.76-1.49 per 100,000 participant-years. Of the deaths, 74% were witnessed. Of the adult cases, 68% (n = 136) were due to cardiac causes, with coronary artery disease the most frequent cause (n = 90 [45%]). Structural abnormalities were common in adult cardiac deaths; 51 (38%) had cardiac weight ≥500 g, and 75 (55%) had left ventricular wall thickness >15 mmaustralia averaged 20 deaths per year in sports in the time period BEFORE covid, 14 per year due to heart conditions. and that was deaths, not including cardiac events not leading to death.our population is much larger than australia. So while very uncommon, they are far from unknown, and all this happened before covid vaccinations. duh
