A study was recently published analysing the short-term risk of developing myocarditis and pericarditis up to 28-days after administration of the 1st and 2nd doses of a covid vaccine in the Nordic countries. The results show that out of the 23m people surveyed, a total of 1077 myocarditis and 1149 pericarditis events were identified. For young males aged 16-24 years, the risk following the 2nd dose of Pfizer was 4 to 7 times the background rate and following the 2nd dose of Moderna that risk was in excess of 9 to 28 times. 
				
			SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination and Myocarditis in a Nordic Cohort Study of 23 Million Residents
Question Is SARS-CoV-2 messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccination associated with risk of myocarditis?
Findings In a cohort study of 23.1 million residents across 4 Nordic countries, risk of myocarditis after the first and second doses of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines was highest in young males aged 16 to 24 years after the second dose. For young males receiving 2 doses of the same vaccine, data were compatible with between 4 and 7 excess events in 28 days per 100 000 vaccinees after second-dose BNT162b2, and between 9 and 28 per 100 000 vaccinees after second-dose mRNA-1273.
Meaning The risk of myocarditis in this large cohort study was highest in young males after the second SARS-CoV-2 vaccine dose, and this risk should be balanced against the benefits of protecting against severe COVID-19 disease.
 
	 
 
		 
 
		 ! Morpheus' quote that most are not ready to be unplugged and will fight to defend the system comes to mind once again. I am happy for the schoolkids though, who will be able to finally breathe freely when they return to school on Tuesday, instead of wearing them throughout the summer term as the idiot Health Minister wanted. Now, let's hope they will indeed, i might even drive by some schools on Tuesday to check for myself!
