How often do USC basketball players get cardiac arrests?

I checked with Google Bard. Looks like only 1 USC player every 100 years, on average will have a cardiac arrest. So how can there be 2 in the last year?

USC basketball player Vincent Iwuchukwu had a cardiac arrest a year ago. Doctors still can’t figure out what caused it.

Executive summary

Based on overall statistics, it appears that USC should normally expect to see about 1 cardiac arrest of a basketball player every 100 years or so.

So two events within a 12 month period is statistically highly unlikely. This means there is an external cause.

The last time it happened, a year ago with Vincent Iwuchukwu, doctors never found the cause. To this day, it remains an unsolved medical mystery.

The statistics suggests that fewer than 1 USC player will have a cardiac arrest every 100 years

If there are 20 people on the entire team each year, all black males, then we’d expect to see one cardiac arrest every 100 years at most, on average.



So the fact that we are seeing 2 cardiac arrests in a year suggests something novel is causing this. It would have to be a powerful drug to cause such damage. And it would have to be created within the last year or two, otherwise we would have seen this before.

Congenital defect?

It’s possible that Bronny James has a congenital heart defect that caused the cardiac arrest. If so, that will be easy to diagnose.

But if not, it’s important to figure out what might be causing this.

It could be the COVID vaccine for example. Or maybe something else.

Whatever the cause, I believe this is an opportunity for Bronny James to educate the public.

Summary

Does anyone know what tests they did on Vincent Iwuchukwu that caused the doctors to rule out the COVID vaccine as the cause of his cardiac arrest?

Does anyone know the last time a USC basketball player had a cardiac arrest?

Is there a novel drug, other than the COVID vaccine, that Bronny James and Vincent Iwuchukwu both took that could cause cardiac arrest?

That would be the most obvious thing to check and do tests to eliminate.
