“Paramedics are checking Rep. Reed’s vitals now. He was unconscious for about 30 seconds or so after he hit the ground. He was moments away from a live television hit, but thankfully that moment did not happen on-air,” said Reporter Samantha-Jo Roth in a tweet. “Paramedics have wheeled in a gurney with the intention of taking him out of the rotunda momentarily.”

Tom Reed OK after collapsing at U.S. Capitol before Fox Business News appearance

Quote
Congressman Tom Reed collapsed in the U.S Capitol on Thursday afternoon while he was preparing for a TV appearance on Fox Business News.

Reed was on the Cannon Rotunda near his Congressional office when he reportedly fainted or passed out.

Medical personnel were on the scene and Reed was responsive and talking.

“Everything is fine," said Communications Director Will Reinert. "He is in stable condition and being checked out by medical personnel."

This happened in the mid afternoon in DC. I wonder if dehydration was the//a cause.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Is he on the same diet as No Nads?  The passout twins.

He has a history of heart issues (he had a pulmonary embolism right after first being elected; he was only 39 at the time) and was obese for much of his pre-congressional life. It might be heart-related. It might be heat.

Right now the "Nothing to see here" comment from his press lackey isn't helping matters.
