Oh man the memorial fan arts are gonna break my heart (for the uninitiated, he voiced several characters on Cartoon Network and Nick Toons shows, most notably Professor Utonium on the Powerpuff Girls, I don't know if he did the rebooted series...among other things)

Around 33% to 42% of Canadians receive the seasonal flu vaccine each year. Coverage rates vary significantly by age and health status, with seniors aged 65 and older reporting the highest vaccination rates (63%), while only about 32% of younger adults with chronic medical conditions get the shot.

Also what a terribly uninformed and cold comment to make.

This is a weird one, Busch says he needs a doctor after a race two weeks ago as he is battling a sinus problem, races the week after apparently fine. Fast forward he is checked into a hospital with a severe illness and dead in less than 24 hours.

Apparently the G force he experienced caused his sinus issue to get worse. They won’t release autopsy results so it’s something they don’t want ppl to know.

yeah sometimes I do wonder if Health issues do happen because of this kind of sport even if the crash doesn't kill you something else probably did

Apparently Busch was in more trouble than he thought, well you're burning up and coughing up blood it might be too late and apparently it was. There is talk he might of had a blood clot.

a few days ago, but just noticing now...

Kyle Busch's cause of death revealed: Busch passed away "after severe pneumonia progressed into sepsis, resulting in rapid and overwhelming associated complications."

Why do I keep thinking what happened was similar to what happened to Jim Henson except *one google later* well that killed part of my theory

Henson would be alive today. Died of common illness.

Jim Henson would be 90 if he was alive today. Statistically he would have not made it to 2026.

he would have been 90 this year had he lived, and yeah even I kind of think he probably would have died by now had he survived....if not retired (he was started to have shoulder problems too)

@Goalie and what happened to him is the reason why I never ignore a cough

Billionaires live longer than us common folk. And that’s what he would be. I don’t want to get into it but did you see the ghouls who donate to American politics? They are all very very very old.

Jim Henson was not a billionaire. Also what does ghouls who donate to American politics have to do with anything? Usually genetics and general healthy lifestyles factor in longer lives. Billionaires also make a very small % of the total population so a comparison really isn't fair.

I hope they do an autopsy & check Lemieux's brain for repeated concussions which could have led to him having symptoms of CTE or Parkinson's.

Former NHL player Claude Lemieux passes away at age 60

Former NHL player Claude Lemieux, whose career as one of hockey’s biggest on-ice pests and clutch scorers helped him win four Stanley Cups, has passed away at the age of 60.

Pretty young age, I am hearing it might have been suicide? If so CTE for sure was probably an issue. I was hoping that Brendan was going to make it with the Jets, but I guess he just wasn't good enough.

Thing I learned today.... Brendan and Claude became the first father son duo to be suspended for biting another player...

Unfortunately it was suicide. His son (one of his sons) found him at 3am at the family warehouse in Florida. Never cared for Claude or Brendan. Just dirty players but mental health certainly affects ppl with and without money.
