You know what also causes myocarditis? COVID-19 [1].
So the choices were:
1. Don't pressure young people to get vaccinated. Nearly everyone who's unvaccinated eventually catches COVID-19. Some of them would have severe reactions and die; or spend time in a hospital, taking up space and delaying care for others, causing those other people to die. Nearly all of them would pass COVID-19 on to other people, many of whom would be older and die. Some of them would develop myocarditis and die.
2. Pressure young people to be vaccinated for COVID-19. Some of them would develop myocarditis and die.
#2 is strictly better than #1.
Sometimes in life there are no good options; only not-so-great options and very bad options.

- ccn0p 4y agoOne of the cruxes of the issue is what constitutes "pressure". Should we block children from going to school in order to "pressure" them forcing the risk of #1 on them rather than allowing parents to make their own choices?
- addingadimensio 4y agoYou still get Covid after you are vaccinated. Fun fact if you are vaccinated before you catch Covid you cannot develop an immunity to the nucleocapsid is this good is this bad I don’t know tune in in 10 years when we know more
- udp 4y ago> if you are vaccinated before you catch Covid you cannot develop an immunity to the nucleocapsid Do you have a reference?

- RansomStark 4y agoThat's not necessarily the case, if fact it might be the exact opposite. 1. Don't pressure young people to get the vaccine, some will end up in hospital, some will die. 2. Pressure young people to get the vaccine and 6 times as many of them end up in hospital from the vaccine, taking up more space, and putting more pressure on the system [0], some of them will die [1][2] [0] https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.30.21262866v1 https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.30.21262866v...
