An assistant director on Netflix's hit show Emily in Paris has sadly died at the age of 47 while filming in Venice, Italy.
Diego Borella had been filming the fifth season of the program when he reportedly collapsed in front of his colleagues, just moments before they were due to shoot the final scene. Medics rushed to the Hotel Danieli around 7 p.m. on Thursday after being alerted to the incident, according to local media reports.
Responders were sadly unable to save Diego.
Absolutely awful news.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought a medic was required to be on site for union film sets?

It's weird how the article just became an advertisement for the series... describing the new season in detail like a pr article. It was if the Netflix Pr machine couldn't help itself.

When you work at an online tabloid, you have to make your articles as long as possible (to retain eyeballs on the page) while taking the least possible time to write them. So typically the end of a previous story on the same subject will get tacked onto the end of a new story to pad it out.

This will probably be me soon. I’ve treated my body like an outhouse for years and decades. Feels better to do drugs than to be clear-minded in these dark times.
My heart goes out to his family.

Covid infections can have long term cardiovascular effects.

COVID can also have long term negative effects on your memory. My grandmother didn't have the best memory before getting COVID twice, but it got way worse after getting it.

u/cheertea 9d ago
This has always happened. It’s just now being reported on instantly around the world whenever it does so it feels like it’s happening more. My cousin dropped dead playing catch at school in the 6th grade back in 1997, shit happens.

It has always happened, but data is showing it happening way more often in these age groups than in previous generations.

u/bloatedwrinkledmug 8d ago
Every recent generation has been fatter and more sedentary, and (as a population) we increasingly eat processed packaged shit. There’s enough microplastic in your brain to make a spoon. It’s sad but also not real shocking that some things are happening a bit more often in people who are a bit younger.

Because the population is bigger, not necessary bc it happens more.

It’s also Covid. It’s been known to increase your risk of heart attack. Cardiologists have been sounding the alarms.

u/Bippy73 8d ago edited 8d ago
Wow. Someone who actually reads the Covid studies. 👏Yes, and strokes, embolisms, blood clots, even can activate cancer and brain issues like dementia. Friends in remission had their oncologists tell them they are seeing an increase in recurrence in people long in remission, especially after a bad case of it. Anyone who follows the scientific studies, I never understand why people don't care about getting it multiple times. It is a vascular virus.
RIP.

u/binxybaby 8d ago
Yes exactly! I swear I feel like I’m the only one who paid attention to that part. It is a vascular virus!! So no it’s not the “jab” like these ding dong anti covid folks love to blame it on.

u/Bippy73 8d ago edited 8d ago
I feel like I am the only one, too. Also, it's quite easy to end the whole argument about the shot itself. It was an entire year or more before the vaxx was widely available. It took months in 2021 for millions to get the vaxx, but in 2020, the hospitals were reporting increased heart attacks, strokes, appendicitis, blood clots, embolisms,.
Look at that poor guy, I forget his name, who was a Broadway dancer that had the amputations of his legs before he died in like April or May 2020 from Covid. It was all from Covid itself, well before the vaxx.

u/Intrepid_Pop_8530 2d ago
Anecdotal, my healthy 40 year old nephew got diagnosed with Type 1 (Juvenile) diabetes after 4 bouts of COVID. Two before the vaccine. He and his wife were the ones who thought you could have a "COVID bubble", so they weren't as careful as they could have been and outwardly socialized among those in their bubble. You don't develop Type 1 as an adult. Doc thinks likely related to COVID infections.

u/Naughtybuttons 8d ago
Yep. Mom has dementia (none of her family ever had it) step dad died of heart failure, their neighbor in hospital right now because she keeps needing blood transfusions and her blood pressure drops they can’t figure it out, my 10 year old sons best friend passed out and took over 5 mins to revive him at recess, now diagnosed with an aortic heart problem, my son gets up to 3 bloody noses a day. Pouring out pools of blood, and I could go on. My best friend keeps finding blood in her stool. My other close friend has stage 4 colon cancer (she is 38) But every person I know has dealt with weird health issues the last few years. You’d have to be in massive denial to not see something is wrong!!! And friends all talk about it as well.
The biggest thing I’ve noticed. No one is aging gracefully anymore.

u/Bippy73 8d ago
OMG. So sorry to hear this. I have friends who had nothing wrong with them, who lead very healthy lifestyles otherwise, and after Covid, they got weird things. A couple with fast heartbeats that started with the virus, but then never went away. I also hadn't realized that scientists say it happens with other viruses as well, like Epstein-Barr. And mono. I have never had my full energy level after getting mono in my 30s. Also, a couple women we know that got strange Neurodegenerative diseases, one MS, and the other that is like Lou Gehrig's after a couple bad covid bouts.
Again, many will say these things have been always around, but as you are pointing out in your awful list even within your circle, there are a lot more unhealthy people these days since Jan, 2020.

u/BrookesGtownMBA 8d ago
Yes to all of this. I never understood how people could be so careless about this disease.

I worked at a place with coworkers who had COVID 3 and 4 times by 2022. People were speed running reinfection.

u/Bippy73 8d ago
No doubt. I know people who had it 5x at last count at the end of 2023. Very few even test for it now. Instead it's "allergies" or "a sinus infection" without having tested.

It’s such a sad and scary time. Very few people still willing to protect themselves by masking.

u/Subject-Rain-9972 8d ago
You are not really protecting your self by masking. You are protecting others.
Maybe that is why so many idiots denied to use it.

A well fitted N95 does protect the person wearing it. I’ve never had Covid.

Definitely - I use a combo of some of the antiviral nasal sprays, KN95’s, and washing hands religiously. And vaccines of course.

Trust be by now you’ve had Covid.

u/InnocentaMN 2d ago
No, I haven’t. I‘ve unfortunately ended up in hospital from actual colds in the past - there’s a reason I have to be careful about Covid, I didn’t randomly decide I was more at risk than other people.

And long covid too- so many have long covid and don’t know it.

Not to minimize everyone else’s points, but this just happens sometimes. Seemingly perfectly healthy people die suddenly of heart issues very early in life.

u/softrockstarr 8d ago
The ongoing COVID pandemic everyone is currently pretending isn't happening that damages every organ and system in the body.

u/Lucy_Lucidity 8d ago
It’s Covid. We have an airborne disease that everyone started ignoring for some reason, even though we don’t have a sterilizing vaccine, and it’s a disease that attacks your vascular system. People who are still following the science still wear masks in public spaces. Respirator masks. Everyone else has gone back to “normal” and the new normal is people are messing up their immune systems at best. Our world leaders really sold us out but we can protect ourselves and each other by masking.
18
u/bagelsandcats 8d ago
What can we do in terms of staying on top of the heart issues? I’m assuming insurance would never approve testing to make sure Covid didn’t ruin our cardiovascular system. Is the only way to know you had a heart issue stemming from Covid once someone drops??? (Asking seriously) I’ve had Covid like 3 times 😭

u/woodandnailss 8d ago
Yeah get an “advanced lipid panel with inflammation and cardio IQ” looks at tons of biomarkers of damage to arteries and heart stuff (not an expert but just had one of these blood tests done)
23
u/OddAdministration677 8d ago
I’ve also had Covid three times. I just had some extensive blood work done and I’m very concerned about my cardiovascular system. Some scary things have shown up. I had somehow not made the connection.

u/Nona29 8d ago
3 times? I would be cautious of blood clots in the lung. Pulmonary embolism. That's what happened to my mom. She had covid twice. They believed covid contributed to her getting them.
She almost died but caught it just in time for them to do an emergency procedure.
I believe any who had covid should be scheduled for a full scan on great and lungs.
15
u/Lucy_Lucidity 8d ago
The best thing you can do for yourself is to prevent future infections. Both from a vascular/heart health standpoint and to prevent Long Covid. I don’t really know of a way to go about increased testing both because of insurance and because most doctors aren’t keeping up with the Covid science.

Get a CAC imaging test. A lot of healthcare places offer it for $50 and the radiation from the CT scan for this is extremely minimal.

u/ShermyTheCat 8d ago
So we're just supposed to wear masks in public for the rest of our lives? The Spanish Flu also had disastrous effects on heart health, do you wish people were wearing masks outside for the entire 20th century? Honestly I'm so sick of virtue signallers telling me this pandemic is still ongoing, look at the stats and tell me who's following the science
14
u/Simbeliine 8d ago
Tbh no I don't think we should be wearing masks the rest of our lives. I think the buildings we live and work in should have been built with filters, ventilation, and non-damaging UV lights so that we could all naturally live in safer environments with a lower possibility of diseases. Any policy that relies on everyone choosing to do something is extremely fallible. It would be much better to make the environments we live in safer. Since we didn't do that before, we should do it now.

u/softrockstarr 8d ago
You can wear a mask or don't. We don't care anymore. The information is available but it's up to you to care about yourself and your community.

u/Tykki_Mikk 8d ago
Wtf do you mean with “sterilizing” vaccine that is not a medical or biological term. 🥲😂
11
u/fe__maiden 8d ago
Might want to educate. Sterilizing immunity is 100% a medical term, and many vaccines offer full sterilizing immunity in which infection is prevented.
5
u/Lucy_Lucidity 8d ago
It’s a vaccine that induces sterilizing immunity and it absolutely is a medical and biological term. We unfortunately don’t have many that do. Sterilized immunity means that an immune system can completely eliminate a viral infection and prevent the virus from replicating in the host. Also unfortunately, our government leaders led people to believe that these vaccines would induce sterilized immunity. Covid is more dangerous than colds, the flu, and other common viruses. It’s causing long term damage. People are more than welcome to ignore it and continue to get repeat infections and then wonder why they get sick much more often then they used to, why they’re more fatigued then they used to be, why they have coughs they cannot shake, why their “healthy” young friends are having strokes and heart attacks on an increased level. The rest of us wear masks. People can do as they like but for years now there are repeated questions on every social media site. “Why are all of these young/middle aged people dropping dead?” and “Why am I sick all of the time?” The answer is Covid.
3
u/NotTrynaMakeWaves 8d ago
The 40s and 50s are the prime time for suddenly dropping dead, usually due to heart attacks and aneurysms.
Your classic “three score years and ten” is a ‘average life expectancy’ and for everyone that reaches 95, someone else goes at 45.

You ain’t wrong there.
Was chatting with a pediatrician and she mentioned that there are more cases of precocious puberty, partly because of the kinds of food we’re feeding kids nowadays.

u/Delta1Juliet 9d ago
Mostly because menarche is tied to body weight. Girls are hitting necessary body weights earlier, either because of good nutrition or bad.

u/ChaltaHaiShellBRight 8d ago
Girls who are underwight or a healthy weight are also experiencing menarche earlier. There has to be an environmental cause.

u/kanguhrus 8d ago
covid “vaccines”
4
u/Muad-_-Dib 8d ago
Multiple studies have shown that Covid is the cause of the increase in cardiovascular conditions post pandemic, not the vaccines.
The NIH found that people who contracted covid, particularly during the early waves were twice as likely to experience a cardiovascular event like a heart attack or stroke. With the risk being quadrupled if the person needed to be hospitalised.
Another study involving 10,000 covid patients vs 200,000 non infected backed that data up, 2x as likely if you had covid an 4x as likely if you ended up in hospital.
Yet another study showed that a covid infection took a toll on the heart and had the effect of 5 years of ageing, particularly among women, causing arterial stiffness which lead to more heart attacks and strokes.
The effect of vaccination showed a reduction in cardiovascular symptoms, primarily because the vaccine helped people avoid severe covid infections.
Absolutely no evidence suggests the vaccines have any significant impact on the cardiovascular system, younger people showed temporary heart inflammation in roughly 12-30 cases per 1 million people vaccinated. This resolved with treatment and did not cause significant long term issues. Older people only registered about 1-5 complications per 1 million vaccinated.
A study in the UK involving 46 million people showed that those vaccinated have not shown any increase in heart attacks or strokes, unless they also then ended up with covid and in particular severe covid infections (something they were much less likely to get thanks to the vaccine).
You are spreading misinformation.
