Mountain biking enthusiast Kyle from the YouTube channel Kyle & April-Ride MTB took the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 jibby jab. Now, he has pericarditis that keeps him from riding and living a normal life. Also, his heart rate goes from sixty beats a minute to a hundred just by standing up from the sitting position. This other condition is called POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome). Standing up makes him almost pass out.

As a means for ensuring the health and safety of District 9-R students and staff one of the basic requirements for meeting this goal is to require students to wear a…
