What do you even mean? National vaccination regulations reflect the myocarditis/pericarditis risk since half a year already. E.g. Germany doesn't vaccinate under 30s with Moderna etc.
- willcipriano 5y agoHow did OP become so confident in the assertion that it does not cause heart issues? The US media has been claiming the myocarditis risk was some sort of antivax conspiracy theory, that is when they covered it at all.

- Pyramus 5y agoNot sure which "media" you got this from, myocarditis cases were first reported in young athletes with Covid, then army personnel that was vaccinated, if I remember correctly. The absolute risk is very small though, a lot smaller than e.g. driving a car.
- willcipriano 5y agoHere is a example from NBC[0]. The headline is: "No, the COVID-19 vaccine does not cause myocarditis", the content does not line up with the assertion the headline makes and sort of weasel words it's way to "well it does but less then Covid", but most people just read the headline. I think media like this is what confused people to think: "the COVID-19 vaccine does not cause myocarditis". I've heard similar assertions on shows like The View and Good Morning America, but I don't have clips.
