There is nothing anecdotal about CDC warning on heart inflammation and pericarditis risk following mRNA vaccination. For a population of 16-28 year old men in which the cases mostly are clinically observed, the chance of getting it is close to 1 in 15,000
Thanks for the info. I already have some minor heart issues, so this info worries me quite significantly. Could you please provide the source of those particular numbers?
Also, please share if you’ve done any related calculations / comparisons. I’d be very interested.
This link lists the number of confirmed cases as of August 11. There were 762 confirmed cases most clustering in men 16-29 or as the CDC says “particularly in male adolescents and young adults.”
As of August 11 there were approximately 10 million fully vaccinated men in this age group.
Divide 700 into 10 million to arrive at the chance of getting it conditional on belonging to this population.
Thanks for the additional information. I haven’t read that stuff, so all I had was anecdotal. I’m quite willing to believe there are side effects with decent rates and studies attached.
