A miraculous recovery for an 84 year-old who is widely reported to have received in home CPR for cardiac arrest on June 14. "For patients [aged 80-89] with witnessed OHCA [out of hospital cardiac arrest] of cardiac aetiology found in a shockable rhythm, survival was higher: 15% "

Until we know more 📌, I’m viewing this as panic due to the very sudden passing of Miss Lindsey. My eye is on August 3rd. Watch this space. 👀 Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Seriously is the photo real or if it is recent? He looks in better health than he looked 5 years ago!

McConnell “said”? I’m not a journalist but a more accurate summary would be “a statement was issued in McConnell’s name saying…” and it might also point out that if the statement were true, it would be easy for his office to release a video of the alive McConnell yet they haven’t done so yet.

Mitch McConnell did not SAY anything. This is a press release. You have no idea whether he wrote it, his staff wrote it, or whether this photograph is AI, which I suspected it is. None of this is proof of life, and for you to report it as such is inaccurate. When you hear Mitch McConnell talk, THEN…
