Diaz et al.: "Myocarditis and Pericarditis After Vaccination for COVID-19"; Two distinct self-limited syndromes, myocarditis and pericarditis, were observed after COVID-19 vaccination.
The evidence is clear: Myocarditis developed rapidly in younger patients, mostly after the second vaccination. Pericarditis affected older patients later, after either the first or second dose.
‘Forty hospitals in Washington, Oregon, Montana, and Los Angeles County, California, that were part of the Providence health care system and used the same electronic medical record (EMR) were included. All patients with documented COVID-19 vaccinations administered inside the system or recorded in state registries at any time through May 25, 2021, were identified. Vaccinated patients who subsequently had emergency department or inpatient encounters with diagnoses of myocarditis, myopericarditis, or pericarditis were ascertained from EMRs’.
‘Among 2 000 287 individuals receiving at least 1 COVID-19 vaccination, 58.9% were women, the median age was 57 years (interquartile range [IQR], 40-70 years), 76.5% received more than 1 dose, 52.6% received the BNT162b2 vaccine (Pfizer/BioNTech), 44.1% received the mRNA-1273 vaccine (Moderna), and 3.1% received the Ad26.COV2.S vaccine (Janssen/Johnson & Johnson).
Twenty individuals had vaccine-related myocarditis (1.0 [95% CI, 0.61-1.54] per 100 000) and 37 had pericarditis (1.8 [95% CI, 1.30-2.55] per 100 000).’
It looks like this is one more study where these were symptomatic people. Once this was known as an adverse event why didn't we start evaluating every vaccinated person to discover the real incidence. We are assuming this myocarditis is like every other. We assume 80% recovery. We assume these people's cardiac function in the future will be the same as it would have been. We assume it clears up completely. We still don't know the real incidence but only the symptomatic incidence. We don't know exactly what the spike protein or whatever ends up in the myocardium will do in the future. It appears no one really wants to know. We are treating this problem and every vaccine adverse event like "oh it's ok, there are not that many with myocarditis, or pericarditis, or that died" Insanity.
Remember this story in the Toronto Sun about myocarditis in Ontario early on following the inoculations?
