It's hard to Google for sources on this since you just get people talking about the vaccine. Here's something I found:
> Across all ages, the risk of myocarditis was almost 16 times higher for people with COVID-19 compared to those who aren’t infected. The myocarditis risk is 37 times higher for infected children under 16 years and seven times higher for infected people ages 16-39 compared to their uninfected peers.

- beaned 5y agoThat particular quote seems to be comparing infected to non-infected, not infected to vaccinated.
- staticassertion 5y agoYes, I thought that was clear. That is what I was trying to find.
- beaned 5y agoI see. But I think the question at hand raised by OP is infected vs vaccinated, not infected vs uninfected? > My understanding is that the incidence of myocarditis is much higher in a COVID infection than from any of the vaccines.
- staticassertion 5y agoYes it takes one extra step to answer that question. We have numbers comparing infected to uninfected, and numbers comparing vaccinated to unvaccinated (and presumably uninfected).
