Myocarditis after Covid-19 Vaccination in a Large Health Care Organization | NEJM

"10.69 cases per 100,000 in male patients between the ages of 16 and 29 years."

Pfizer only according to the study. Quite concerning as Moderna appears to be even more dangerous than Pfizer.

@pete i would very much like to understand what it means to have a “mild” myocarditis.
The adjective seems to be always added without any definition. It’s almost as if they’re trying not to make it look too bad.

@pete @drgo

Interesting pre-print about differences in the myocarditis among classical myocarditis (pre-2020), vaccine-induced, and Covid-caused.

It looks like both Covid and vaccines cause myocarditis considerably less severe than the classical presentation.

That makes sense if it’s caused by the spike protein.

@lucash_dev @drgo One factor here may be that classical myocarditis happens to people who have something more seriously wrong with them.
