18 Cases of Heart Inflammation After COVID-19 Vaccination Reported in Connecticut
https://www.theepochtimes.com ^ | BY ZACHARY STIEBER | May 25, 2021 Updated: May 25, 2021

A single state has recorded 18 cases of myocarditis in people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. All of the cases in Connecticut required hospitalization.

Acting Health Commissioner Dr. Deirdre Gifford told reporters during a virtual press briefing on Monday that the cases have been “rare” and “mild.”

But she added later when asked how many of the patients were hospitalized, “All of the cases that were reported to us were individuals that were hospitalized, the vast majority for a couple of days.”

“One individual that we’re aware of is still hospitalized. The other 17 have been sent home and they’re doing fine,” she said.

No other state appears to have publicly reported concrete numbers of myocarditis, or heart inflammation, among those who got a COVID-19 vaccine after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said it was investigating reports of the condition.

The Washington State Department of Health said in a statement on Monday that it was “aware of reports of a small number of cases of myocarditis or pericarditis in some patients, post-vaccination,” adding, “Further investigation is needed to determine if these cases are connected in any way to COVID-19 vaccines.”

Health care providers in Washington, Idaho, and Oregon have been notified about the issue so they are prepared to quickly identity symptoms if more cases occur.

Symptoms of myocarditis include chest pain, an abnormal heartbeat, and shortness of breath.

In a May 20 notification, the Oregon Health Authority told health care providers that there were at least six recorded cases of myocarditis in the state following vaccination, the Salem Statesman Journal reported. All six required hospital care.

The authority did not immediately return a request for comment.

The CDC’s vaccine safety work group announced last week that it was presented with myocarditis in persons who received shots produced by Moderna or Pfizer. The group said it concluded there “are relatively few reports of myocarditis to date” and that the cases predominately occur in adolescents and young adults within four days after vaccination.”

Most cases appear to be mild, the group added. Experts in the group were following up on the cases.

The group was collecting information in part from gleaning reports submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, a passive reporting system that allows anybody to submit reports about adverse events following vaccination.

As of May 25, 155 reports have been submitted regarding myocarditis among people who received a COVID-19 jab.

Pfizer and Moderna have said they are aware of the reports.

Youth are largely at little risk of death or severe illness after getting infected with the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, which causes COVID-19. But some experts are urging the young to get a shot to better protect those who are more vulnerable, including the elderly.

European regulators are also probing reports of post-vaccination myocarditis.

Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the head of the CDC, told a virtual briefing last month that there was no link seen between COVID-19 vaccines and myocarditis after the Pentagon reported over a dozen cases among service members and their families.

The American Heart Association and American Stroke Association said in a joint statement on May 23 that the benefits of COVID-19 vaccines outweigh the “rare, possible risk of heart-related complications, including inflammation of the heart muscle, or myocarditis.” The associations are still recommending all adults and kids over the age of 12 get a COVID-19 vaccine.

Over 77,000 children under the age of 12 have received at least one shot as of May 24, according to the CDC. Another 2.1 million between the ages of 12 and 15 have gotten at least one jab.

“Our health and medical experts still continue to convey that it is the right step for 12 to 15 year olds to get vaccinated, that these are limited cases,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters on Monday. “And that, obviously, the risks of contracting COVID are certainly significant, even for people of that age.”

Obviously a fake story as the pro-vaxxers will bring up; there are no ‘serious’ side effects (not that you’re given a fact sheet as to what may happen to you).

Nothing to see here. The “vaccines” are still 100% safe and 100% effective. Plus, we are guaranteed not to have to worry about any future adverse reactions or any possiblity our natural immune system is wrecked permanently. Greatest medical miracle ever seen in modern times.

Heart inflammation, death, skin peeling, boils, etc., simply mean the shot is working.

Hopefully our $15/hr CDC “Vaccine Navigators” will be along shortly to explain why cutting lives short is a reasonable cost, if only you’d stop valuing life so idealistically!

Imho the headline is that this was not disclosed after the trials when it is extremely unlikely that these “side-effects” were not known.

The second takeaway is that the creators of the vaccine have made no (known) attempt to understand the mechanism at work that is causing the side-effect.

This is blatant medical malpractice.

This sounds really stupid at first glance.   How many instances of myocarditis occurred before the vaccine?   Zero?   No?

Per the NIH....

The incidence of myocarditis is approximately 1.5 million cases worldwide per year. Incidence is usually estimated between 10 to 20 cases per 100,000 persons.

How many additional asymptomatic cases are out there?

This is blatant medical malpractice.


This cardiologist MD/PhD/JD agrees....and, plans to file suit (w/other docs)....

Dr Richard Fleming....

.....Dr. Fleming argues that the perpetrators must be prosecuted for their crimes, and that all of the necessary evidence is already available.

18 cardiomyopathies in one state.

Curious to see how the Vax collaborators will dance their way out of this one.

Ya think it'll be the old 'only 18? out of 73 hundred quatrillion? Means nothing' trick, or the 'them people was gonna have cardio whatyamacallit any way' trick?

Maybe the 'you don't understand how VAERS works, kid' trick?

Either way, its another in the death of a thousand cuts for poor old vaxxy.

First man in world to receive Covid Vaccine is dead…

The first man in the world to receive a Covid-19 vaccination has died, aged 81. Bill Shakespeare was only the second person in the world to get the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine in December at University Hospital Coventry.

Coventry councillor Jayne Innes said that Mr Shakespeare had died and said the “best tribute to Bill is to have the jab”. In a Facebook post, she added: “Bill will be remembered for many things, including a taste for mischief.”

Wow. They sure do turn it on, don't they? The best tribute to the dead guy is to take what likely kilt him.

We do live in interesting times.

In the past any vaccine showing even a fraction of such adverse reactions would have been pulled off he market. But pharmaceutical companies are cashing in hands over fists and the public not knowing any different falls for it hook line and sinker, even so there are other ways and means available to fight this virus.
