The popular Jack 96.9 morning show host in Vancouver, Canada, will be taking a hiatus until 2023 following a heart attack last week.
Popular gay radio personality and vaccine advocate “Drex,” says he was watching TV at home when he experienced a strange sensation, according to The Province.
“It was really weird. I felt nauseous like I needed to throw up and do a bowel movement at the same time,” he said.
The 43-year-old man began to feel tightness in his chest. He contacted his friend to call 911 immediately after he failed to reach his husband, who was at work at the time.
According to Drex, firefighters were at his house within 10 minutes, and paramedics arrived shortly thereafter. He was sent to the emergency room. A heart attack was diagnosed after an EKG was performed by doctors.
“They put in a stent straight away, within 20 minutes of arriving at emergency,” said Drex. “They said we got to do it now.”
More from The Province:
Doctors will later tell him one of his arteries was completely blocked, while another was at 80 per cent. Three other arteries were also clogged, but less severely and didn’t require the small mesh tubes to hold them open.
On Monday, Drex had a second stent for the artery that was 80 per cent blocked.
The heart attack was a wake-up call, Drex said.
In an ironic twist, on the day of his heart attack, Drex had interviewed TC Carling, president of the Canadian Men’s Health Foundation, on his morning show on Jack 96.9. The foundation is a non-profit group that works to improve men’s health and reduce their risk of chronic diseases.
“We were talking about how men don’t take their health seriously,” said Drex. “And, stupidly, I was one of them. I didn’t listen to my own body. I didn’t take it seriously because I’m a dude and men are dumb and I was thinking, ‘It’ll be nothing,’ but no, you’re having a f—ing heart attack.”
In hindsight, Drex said he had been feeling unwell and sluggish the last year. His lifestyle and diet — “I like delicious things,” he admitted — didn’t help. He also has a family history of heart problems: His grandma required quadruple bypass surgery and his dad had to undergo a triple bypass.
Drex shared his health scare on Twitter, where he received tons of comments from the anti-vaxxers.
It can be recalled, Brex launched an attack against the anti-vaxxers last year, labeling them “morons” and demanding them to shut up.
“To the folks saying getting vaccinated is a “deeply personal decision” it’s time to shut the f*ck up and sit the f*ck down. It’s a matter of public health. The media and governments aren’t lying to you. You’re just a f*cking moron who doesn’t know sh*t from clay. STFU already,” Brex wrote on his Twitter.
Play stupid games and win stupid prizes.
Drex is a staunch believer in Covid vaccine. He celebrated and praised the British Columbia government after they introduced the Covid-19 vaccine passport to its constituents.
He was gloating about people getting fired for refusing to take part in a medical experiment.
“How great is that! BC will have a vaccine passport! I love it. Prove your vaccinated and you can do stuff! Also workplace requirements to get vaxxed in many places. If you thinks it’s a terrible idea you know how to un-follow me,” he added.
Drex warned the anti-vaxxers that if they don’t get the Covid shots, they could end up in the intensive care unit (ICU) or even die. And yet, look at where he is now.
“Get the Vaccine available to you! don’t be a numpty, you might end up in an ICU…or DEAD.”
Drex continues to insist that his diagnosis is unrelated to the Covid vaccine, despite the evidence to the contrary.
“Imagine almost exiting from a heart attack only to have anti-vaxxers come for you… blaming vaccines. Seriously go and get f*cked,” he wrote.
Drex reported that a number of the comments he received were “quite demoralizing,” and as a result, he has now locked out his Twitter account.
