The outcome of that study confirms what has been known for some time, doesn't it?
-Increase in cardiac related issues in the 18-39 age group of (mainly) males may be related to mRNA vaccines but further study needed

  • Increase in cardiac related issues in the general population higher after Covid infection than after the vaccine.

Thanks for the link!

Final 2 paragraphs also very relevant:

"Confounding by age may be present in the 60 years or older age group, which may explain the slight

elevated risk for cardiac-related deaths following vaccination. This may also explain the increased risk

for the entire vaccination analysis group for cardiac-related deaths since this group comprises the vast

majority of deaths. Removing those aged 60 years or older yielded non-significant results for cardiac-
related deaths following vaccination (RI = 1.15, 95% CI = 0.99 - 1.34), mRNA vaccination (RI = 1.17, 95%

CI = 1.00 - 1.37), and males with mRNA vaccination (RI = 1.09, 95% CI = 0.89 - 1.34).

Lastly, this analysis was conducted during the first months the vaccines were available. Both COVID-19

mortality due to infection or risk of mortality associated with vaccination have likely changed over time.

In the fall of 2022, most people have either been vaccinated or have natural immunity to COVID-19.

Many have had multiple vaccine doses, multiple infections or both. Research to assess the current risks

and benefits of the COVID-19 vaccine to help update vaccine recommendations should be studied in this context"

My 15 year old has doctor's advice not to have his booster (would be entitled as lives with immunosuppressed person). He has a history of vaccine reactions and yep, got pericarditis after second Pfizer.

@Callimanco
I was so sorry to read that your son developed pericarditis. I truly hope that he is on the road to recovery. Sending all my best wishes your way.
