From the paper:
> During March 2020–January 2021, the risk for myocarditis
was 0.146% among patients with COVID-19 and 0.009%
among patients without COVID-19. Among patients with
COVID-19, the risk for myocarditis was higher among
males (0.187%) than among females (0.109%) and was
highest among adults aged ≥75 years (0.238%), 65–74 years
(0.186%), and 50–64 years (0.155%) and among children
aged <16 years (0.133%)
I don't get these numbers because the other original paper says the rate is 95.4 per million or 0.00954%, but that's well below the risk with or without COVID-19.
> We estimated a risk of 95.4 cases of myopericarditis per million second doses administered in
patients age 12-39 which is higher than the incidence reported to US advisory committees
