It would be nice to know how they are diagnosing myocarditis. There is a big difference between a low level positive enzyme in the blood stream and full blown congestive heart failure. Many other viruses cause myocarditis so this is not unique to covid

Yup, small bumps in CPKMB or Troponins are very different than dilated cardiomyopathy and arrhythmia.

Not a doctor, but a heart/ bypass patient. Also had pleurisy years ago and I imagine some loose similarity in the infection . . . just guessing.

From my untrained knowledge, myocarditis would be some type of infection/ inflammation of heart tissue. Is that treatable from some type antibiotic? How stubborn would such an infection be?

H1N1 caused similar effects. Seasonal Flu, and even some severe colds can also cause Myocarditis in some cases.
