Following recent incidents of healthy young people dying from Sudden Adult Death Syndrome, doctors are developing the country's first SADS registry in Australia.
Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS), also known as Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome, is a term for the sudden, unexpected death of adults by cardiac arrest, often used when an obvious cause of death cannot be found post-mortem. SADS was first documented in 1977, however, in June 2022, a conspiracy theory spread online claiming a purported rise in SADS in young people was linked to the COVID-19 vaccine. The conspiracy continued to spread in 2022, largely promoted by those in the anti-vaccination movement, particularly with coronavirus vaccines.
