![]() Unfortunately in young teenage males, the risk of myocarditis was higher with the vaccine than covid infection. Not necessarily the biggest confounding point possible, but there could be a selection bias going on here that hasn't been accounted for. It remains possible that our findings have been influenced by referral bias, with troponin testing performed more widely following vaccination due to media reports of vaccine-associated myocarditis." As such, we are not able to determine what proportion of patients underwent cardiac imaging or biopsy to confirm the diagnosis of myocarditis. we relied on hospital admission codes and death certification to define our outcome measures. This also only takes into account a few particular kinds of medical risk, so using this to make an assessment of whether the vaccine is overall riskier than COVID infection wouldn't be correct.Īlso worth noting, from the study which this linked study is referencing to make this point: Though it should be stated that the risk seems to go from 10 incidents per million from COVID infection to 15 incidents per million after second vaccine dose. (Of course, myocarditis also occurs through covid infection as well, but to suggest that someone who got myocarditis from the vaccine would've gotten it from covid as a guarantee implies that there's only one mechanism present behind both, which is a nfident statement) That is, while catching covid would result in spike proteins being produced by the virus and circulating throughout the body, it might happen over a longer time period than with the vaccine being administered - and hence the 'shock' to the heart (in terms of the quantity of spike proteins) might cause the resulting myocarditis? Weren't there preprints suggesting it was the impulse of spike proteins that made it into the blood following a faulty administration that potentially caused myocarditis? I thought the mechanism wasn't in question, but the quantity and duration. Because the side effects seem to be originating from the spike protein, not the vaccine itself. If you’re worried about the vaccine side effects, you should be extremely worried about Covid itself. ![]() The disease trends break down when looked at on a more granular level and it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. My buddy who grew up playing sport and has maintained a good overall fitness and fairly health life style got a long term active infection and had his O2 in the high 80s for months. My grandfather who was dying of dementia and recently had a stroke was fine from it, not even hospitalized. My grandmother in her 80s with pre-cancer and not vaccinated felt under the weather for a few days. My youngest brother who is by far the healthiest out of all of us, got it the absolute worst. My mom who’s in her 50s and smokes felt like she had a cold. My dad in his 50s who is overweight had some tightness feeling in his chest but that was all. I myself felt like I had the flu for 6 days, but outside of the congenital heart issue, I have a very strong immune system. My brother who has a genetic heart condition like me as well as asthma, had a fever for about 8 hours and that was it. His healthy wife also in her 20s had to go to the hospital for breathing issues. I have a friend who got Covid right after his treat that’s wipes out his immune system. There seems to be no real consistency with Covid response. New to reddit? Click here!
