Myocarditis after SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 vaccination: Epidemiology, outcomes, and new perspectives ABSTRACT Myocarditis, typically manifesting as myopericarditis, is among the serious cardiac consequences observed over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. We performed a comprehensive, evidence-based literature synthesis of findings from clinical trial data reanalysis, post-marketing surveillance, large observational studies, and other diverse research sources that help shed light on the phenomenon of myocarditis post SARS-CoV-2 infection versus COVID-19 vaccine-induced myocarditis. Our conclusions refute several claims previously made by public health agencies and professional associations, namely the following: (1) the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and Omicron infections have caused more cases of myocarditis than the COVID-19 mRNA immunizations; (2) mRNA vaccine-induced myocarditis is typically mild, transient, and rare, with no long-term sequelae; and (3) the risk-benefit calculus favors continued use of these products despite evidence of more iatrogenic cases. We address each of these misconceptions by applying a combination of epidemiological, clinical, and immunological perspectives. We urge governments to remove the COVID-19 mRNA products from the market due to the well-documented risk of myocardial damage, a risk that is strongest for younger males (<40 years old). CONCLUSIONS Myocarditis remains one of the most significant cardiac adverse events linked to the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines manufactured by Pfizer and Moderna. This review critically evaluated the relationship between mRNA vaccines and myocarditis using evidence from reanalysis of clinical trials, post marketing data, prospective cardiac-monitoring studies, and large observational studies. Despite consistent safety signals showing a relatively high risk of myocarditis and its sequelae in younger age groups, public health authorities have defended the continued use of these products with claims that myocarditis from SARS-CoV-2 infections, including Omicron, is more frequent; that vaccine-related myocarditis is rare, mild, and transient (without long term sequelae); and that the benefits outweigh the risks. However, our critique, grounded in epidemiological, clinical, and immunological evidence, challenges these assertions. e combination of low risk of severe COVID-19 and a higher likelihood of mRNA vaccine-related myocarditis in younger people makes it difficult to rationalize a policy of ongoing mRNA vaccines in this population. The theoretical absolute benefit of COVID-19 mRNA vaccination is largely contingent on an individual’s baseline risk of severe COVID-19 disease, prior natural immunity, current SARS-CoV-2 and access to early ambulatory treatment protocols. For healthy individuals under the age of 20, 30, or 40, the upper bound of absolute benefits has consistently been negligible across all strains, often approaching zero. Furthermore, no robust studies to date have reliably established a benefit of the COVID-19 vaccination in infants, children and young adults. Even relatively rare safety signals (on a population-wide basis) can substantially alter the overall risk-benefit analysis in younger populations. The analyses by Krug et al., and Bourdon et al., both substantiate an unfavorable risk-benefit calculus. Specifically, for young males, the risk associated with COVID-19 mRNA vaccine-related myocarditis following the second dose exceeds the potential upper-bound reduction in severe COVID-19 outcomes. This underscores the critical need for age- and risk-stratified evaluations to better inform public health policy and to ensure that the harms do not consistently outweigh the theoretical benefits. Given the substantial evidence presented here concerning cardiotoxicity and serious cardiac events in younger generations, we strongly recommend the immediate withdrawal of COVID-19 mRNA products from the market.

Complete nonsense. AND as I (and medical experts) have been saying for years this particular variant with it's sub-variants is a non-severe viral infection.

I've been saying this since the Omicron variant settled down to a non-severe viral infection. That was years ago and Omicron is still a non-severe viral infection. Alas it's your comment that should be disregarded.

And it's been this way for years and I've been saying this for years. As for the deaths again it is legitimate to ask from or with Covid-19 and what comorbidities were present. It's also worth bearing in mind that complications from the common cold can be enough to kill a person at risk.

I'm not sure you should use the word "garbage". Some might say this is what the entirety of your post are.

I know GB News is ultra Conservative but it doesn't mean the story isn't real. This was just one example of freedom of speech being curtailed in the UK.

Pensioner arrested over 'thought crime' tweet as officers examine 'Brexity books and wife's shopping list' Some exerts from the article: A retired special constable has spoken out about free speech being under attack after he was detained over a social media post warning about anti-Semitism in Britain. The officers arrived after Foulkes challenged a supporter of pro-Palestinian marches on X. Foulkes had responded to a post from an account called "Mr Ethical" featuring a Palestinian flag, writing: "One step away from storming Heathrow looking for Jewish arrivals". Without warning, the Metropolitan Police Intelligence Command had referred his post to Kent Police, citing "concerns around online content". Foulkes was locked in a police cell for eight hours and questioned on suspicion of malicious communications. https://www.gbnews.com/news/free-speech-row-kent-thought-crime-tweet-police-brexit-books

Stop trolling. It's very boring. It also shows a lack of intellectual prowess which is demonstrated in each and every post of yours..

Up to your brilliant retorts again when you have absolutely nothing else. You never fail to show your true intellect.

Are you saying people in the UK aren't getting arrested for social media posts? If you are I, and I'm guessing others on here would like to know your thinking on this. Surely people being arrested for social media posts is a curtailing of freedom of speech.

Oh dear! Some people just can only accept the MSM stories. Mate give it a rest. This comment of yours is simply juvenile.

Qatar calls reports of pending jet gift to Trump ‘inaccurate’ Qatar on Sunday denied reports that the Trump administration is preparing to accept a luxury jet from the country’s royal family in the coming days. ABC News reported earlier Sunday that a super luxury Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet would become available for President Donald Trump as Air Force One and then donated to his presidential library foundation so he could use it after leaving office. But Ali Al-Ansari, Qatar’s Media Attaché to the U.S., told POLITICO the reports are “inaccurate,” suggesting the donation, at the very least, had yet to be finalized. “The possible transfer of an aircraft for temporary use as Air Force One is currently under consideration between Qatar’s Ministry of Defense and the U.S. Department of Defense, but the matter remains under review by the respective legal departments, and no decision has been made,” he said. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/11/qatar-calls-jet-gift-trump-inaccurate-00341084

I hope you realize how ridiculous this comment is. Maybe you don't and still yearn for the days when freedom of speech was curtailed by the authorities when the pandemic was on. Sadly such restrictions still occur. UK is a great example.

Just more of what I cannot say on this forum but Trump the POTUS can say. 3:07 fight They have Trump derangement 3:09 syndrome

You didn't answer the question from @ThreeCardMonte "I’m sure you’re capable of providing the proof of your claim." Bit like that cackling idiot that never answered a question and that you think should've been POTUS. This is pure deflection. It's pitiful.

More baseless opinion. You need to back this up with something (not MSNBC) to give your comment some credibility.

Based on what? The laws or your opinion?

What exactly are the laws about receiving gifts?

To not accept would surely be an insult to the royal family of Qatar.

You should look at some anti-Trump/anti-Musk rallies. Full of unhinged 50s+.

As I was replying to your post crying fascism. Wanting to bring down the price of pharmaceuticals is not "like fascism" as you commented and as for "state controlled" as pointed out regulating pharmaceutical prices by the state is common practice.

Plenty of countries around the world that regulate pharmaceutical prices. Are you saying they're all fascist, state controlled countries?

Makes you wonder why so many ex democrat voters voted for him. Maybe they saw his policies such as closing down the open borders as a good one. One could say it was POPULAR.

Interesting you say this. Just goes to show that Trump is not your typical Republican. The left went to the looney progressive woke left and Trump became more of a populist centrist getting the votes from all those opposed to the direction the Democratic Party took.

I guess when you can withhold billions of taxpayer's money there is a big stick to wave.
