A famous and well-respected Canadian doctor in his field has suddenly died while out for a run.
The Chief of Emergency Medicine and Program Medical Director at North York General Hospital (NYGH), Dr. Paul Hannam, died on Saturday, and the cause of his death is a mystery at present. He was fully jabbed.
The tragic death of Hannam has been making the rounds on the internet. He passed away when he was 50 years old.
According to a tweet from his buddy and fellow emergency physician Dr. Howard Ovens, he reportedly passed out while out running.
“Canadian Emergency Medicine is in mourning tonight. Paul Hannam, Olympic sailor, marathon runner, family man, ED director at NYGH, a sweet, thoughtful, compassionate and gentle man died suddenly today on a run. The quintessential mensch. Hug someone you love.”

When asked if an autopsy is being done to ease public concerns, Dr. Oven responded that Dr. Hannam is not a public figure and his family deserves privacy and respect.

Dr. Oven retweeted a post from another doctor arguing that sudden cardiac death during exercise is virtually always caused by an arrhythmia and not by a vaccine.
Sudden cardiac death during exercise is virtually always caused by an arrhythmia. It’s not a new concept and there is no elephant in the room. It’s just a regular tragedy, not an excuse to spread antivax garbage.
