A new study of U.S. service members found higher than expected rates of heart inflammation following receipt of COVID-19 vaccines. It's a finding Defense Department researchers say should call attention to the condition, known as myocarditis, as a potential side effect of the immunizations.
"While the true incidence of this adverse event is unknown at this time, the presentation pattern and clinical course suggest an association with an inflammatory response to vaccination," wrote the group, led by Dr. Jay Montgomery, of Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.
Personnel in the study ranged in age from 20 to 51. Cardiac symptoms resolved within a week of onset for 16 patients, but seven continued to have chest pain at the time of publication.
An association between the COVID-19 vaccines and myocarditis was first reported in Israel with a case study in February involving a 19-year-old male. The U.S. military was the first to begin tracking cases in the U.S. population.
The Food and Drug Administration last week added a warning to the documentation that accompanies the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines to notify recipients of the risk of developing myocarditis, seen mainly in young men.
The papers say that the vaccines may bring "increased risks of myocarditis and pericarditis, particularly following the second dose.
CDC officials added that they had not yet determined how the vaccines cause myocarditis. But a group of researchers from the Mayo Clinic reported June 16 that the condition in patients following the mRNA vaccine did not resemble the inflammation seen in patients who have had a bad reaction to the smallpox vaccine.
"Potential mechanisms for myocarditis post-mRNA-based vaccination include a non-specific innate inflammatory response or a molecular mimicry mechanism between viral spike protein and an unknown cardiac protein," wrote Dr. Kathryn Larson.

The Army has just released guidance to mandate the vaccine to all Soldiers on the expected FDA approval date on our about 1 September.
I’ll hold out for as long as I legally can.
“Rare” is a subjective, not objective, modifier.
Science does not use subjective modifiers.
I’ve heard it’s good to delay the 2nd dose if possible. In other countries, people wait up to 3-4 MONTHS not weeks for the 2nd one. Especially young people. And there is speculation that this (or only having one shot in children’s case) may be beneficial.
Get the J&J...... it’s not any different than the other crap they gave you with the airgun.
It makes you wonder how many folks have died after getting the vaccine as opposed to how many have died using Hydroxycloroquine and Ivermectine.
One is championed almost as a religious symbol, the other two are vilified as ineffective and for awhile a death sentence (looking at you Cavuto).
I was lucky... the J&J was what they had in stock on my vaccination day. But, at the time, everyone was convinced by the published figures that the mRNA vaccines were better. In fact, I got my shot date moved up because someone walked out of the clinic, as they wanted the mRNA vaccine instead.
I got the J&J shot 6 months after having negative reaction to the first Pfizer shot. Work-required.
However, I viewed some ‘crank’ videos on the J&J vaccine beforehand so when I came down with the ‘crank-predicted’ headaches I knew to take aspirin to reduce the crank-described vein clots.
JME.
I heard one doctor suggest that women (particularly younger women) are better off with mRNA and men with J&J. Children with only one dose of mRNA. (If at all.)
And this is but one of the known effects in the short term. Who knows what problems lie ahead in the long term?
Playing devil’s advocate here but someone can respond with: well what about the long haul symptoms or complications of Covid?
But I agree there’s to much fishiness in the vaccine culture to constitute genuine concern for public health and defeating the pandemic. :(
Except in the case when the NIH scientists talk about Natural Immunity. They always use the words ‘could” and “may” when issuing guidance for natural immunity duration.
The Red Cross says I have Covid-19 antibodies. I will never allow them to stick the vaccine in me. The only reason they would insist on it would be because the vaccine is not about the virus.
My feelings, exactly. They obviously have a hidden agenda.
That’s goood you had at least a few months between them. And as I wrote elsewhere I’ve heard that younger men are better off with J and J as the heart inflammation risk from mRNA disproportionally impacts young men while the clotting risk from J and J is mostly young women.
I recommend spending that time figuring out ways to get out of it.
Imagine Hell as the effects of a poison that people are injected with.
Even a bioweapon-modified coronavirus has to jump from person to person or animal to person. Taking an experimental treatment bypasses or interferes with the body's natural defenses against coronaviruses that have been around for thousands of years.
And if the military orders you to take a vaccine and that vaccine injures you, you should get a big paycheck every month for the rest of your life.
