This tweet was posted and then taken down by the CDC on their twitter page.

Well if that isn’t blatant misdirection, I don’t know what is…I guess clots have always been lurking under us all this time for the last 40 years, but now all of sudden its a public health crisis…no connection to what has changed in the last year, right? Like maybe a jab in the arm?

It’s game day! Whether you’re an #athlete, #coach, or a #fan, don’t let a blood clot ruin game day. Jump, cheer, and stretch between plays, and learn more about preventing blood clots for yourself, your team, and your friends and family. #SuperBowl https://t.co/H4Ou0xBFSJ pic.twitter.com/Fr75qmjQBX

Or maybe this one from Pfizer?

Deep vein thrombosis (#DVT), a blood clot in a deep vein, can travel to the lungs, leading to a pulmonary embolism (#PE). Symptoms of PE include difficulty breathing and chest pain. Contact your doctor if experiencing symptoms—this is no time to wait.
