Are we really seeing a rise in SCDs?

Question

Asked for Male, 21 Years

I'm hearing daily news on social media outlets as well as Television of young adults dying suddenly of cardiac arrests. They are dead within minutes even before they could seek treatment in a hospital. What is causing all these deaths? Is it the COVID-19 virus or the vaccine or something else? Also what tests can one undergo to know if the heart is in a good condition. Please clarify.
