The study states that 0.004% of vaccine recipients were hospitalized from myocarditis. 1,615 out of 38,615,491.
NIH estimates that 31.1% of U.S. adults will experience an anxiety disorder at some point in their lives. https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/statistics/any-anxiety-disorder https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/statistics/any-anxiety-disor....
I would encourage you to discuss with a licensed medical professional about which you are more likely to be experiencing.

- ImaCake 5y agoNot sure about irregular heart beats. But when I was burning out from my PhD a very heavy and intense heart beat was the most notable physical symptom. There was no underlying problem, I was just going through a great deal of emotional stress. The problem with anxiety is that it leads to intense heart beating and your anxiety then leads you to assume something physically wrong with your heart. You don’t think rationally on stress!

- tpoacher 5y agoYou have the priors the other way round. The old adage "when you hear gallopping think horses, not zebras" is not valid if you're in a place where zebras are common and horses aren't. What you say could be true if this person had experienced such events prior to vaccination as well. Otherwise the probability of having a first episode of ectopic beats within 28 days of the vaccine is far less likely to be due to anxiety in the absense of previous history of anxiety, let alone one with rare symptomatology.
- martyvis 5y agoExcept where there is so much disinformation from anti-vaxxers that it induces anxiety in people that are hesitant to get vaccinated
- secondcoming 5y agoVaccines causing myocarditis isn't disinformation.

- gnfargbl 5y agoStating without context that "vaccines cause myocarditis" is indeed disinformation, because it encourages people to irrationally focus on a particular (edge-case) negative outcome, whilst disregarding the (common) positive outcome. Add the context, and the potential for disinformation goes away: "Vaccines cause myocarditis, but overall at a lower rate than the disease itself. Additionally, the disease has many other, much more significant, risks that are mitigated by vaccination." The point I'm making is that disinformation is a psychological effect. A statement can be factually true and still be disinformation ("100% of child abusers found to have consumed dihydrogen monoxide", etc.)
