The CDC saw roughly 1300 cases of myocarditis or myopericarditis reported in mRNA vaccine recipients under 29 years old, after administering 52 million doses to that same age group, a minuscule risk and one much lower than that presented by COVID-19. [1] And even then, in those cases, the vast majority resolve on their own with minimal medical intervention. [2] But hey, have a link to the CDC source of that presentation so you don’t have to go to that .win site anymore to find your sources. They’re pretty bad at sourcing information over there [3] [1] https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7027e2.htm https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7027e2.htm [2] https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8321962/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8321962/ [3] https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/meetings/downloads/slides-2021-08-30/03-COVID-Su-508.pdf https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/meetings/downloads/slides-...

From the latest data it looks like the CDC was undercounting: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.30.21262866v1.full.pdf https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.30.21262866v...

  > Post-vaccination CAE rate was highest in young boys aged 12-15 following dose two. For boys 12-17 without medical comorbidities, the likelihood of post vaccination dose two CAE is 162.2 and 94.0/million respectively. This incidence exceeds their expected 120-day COVID-19 hospitalization rate at both moderate (August 21, 2021 rates) and high COVID-19 hospitalization incidence. In short, COVID-19 is not very dangerous for younger people. So much so that the vaccine appears to pose a greater health risk.

    They aren't comparing apples and apples. CAE occured at all for vaccine, vs. 120+ day stay in hospital for covid. And of course they removed those with comorbidities, who are exactly the ones who are worse affected by covid than the vaccine. Lies, damn lies and statistics?
