There doesn’t appear to be a limit to stupidity and big pharma takes full advantage of it.
Watch what? I was replying to the comment made in post #21. Post #21 doesn’t contain a video. It contains a comment that demonstrates a lack of understanding around both the incidence of myocarditis and the statement made by CDC.
CBS:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Thursday that it will convene an “emergency meeting” of its advisers on June 18th to discuss rare but higher-than-expected reports of heart inflammation following doses of the mRNA-based Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines.
So far, the CDC has identified 226 reports that might meet the agency’s “working case definition” of myocarditis and pericarditis following the shots, the agency disclosed Thursday. The vast majority have recovered, but 41 had ongoing symptoms, 15 are still hospitalized, and 3 are in the intensive care unit.
There have been over 5000 deaths after being vaccinated and several hundred thousand cases of severe medical complications. FOYI. We have a renal patient in our family who is very fragile. She was convinced to get the J&J shot. Within two weeks she was in the hospital and now she has a heart condition in addition to all the other problems. Go figure.
Ok now you are sacrificing your credibility.
The only reason why these particular myocarditis cases are at the forefront of attention is because they all share similar timing and similar factor of all taking place after 2nd mRNA shot.
I’m not saying they aren’t caused by the vaccine. There’s at least some circumstantial evidence they are, and both Israel and the CDC have identified a potential link.
I’m pointing out that myocarditis is not a death sentence and it’s not even uncommon. In fact, it’s extremely common and caused by many different things; often a cold. Symptoms are typically either mild or nonexistent. Recovery is typically quick and easy.
Myocarditis or “heart inflammation” sounds very serious and urgent on its surface. Some use the fact that people often aren’t familiar with it to stoke fear. I’m putting the diagnosis into context. Is it desirable to see a rise in myocarditis? No. Is it the end of the world? No. Is it worth investigating and monitoring? Absolutely. Should there be some sort of warning provided with the vaccines that are associated with this with warning signs that should trigger a visit to the doctor? Probably, yes.
As with everything, I want people informed and to have the necessary context to understand things. Some just want fear. I think parents and teens need to make informed decisions based on the latest evidence. And doing so requires that they understand what that evidence means in practical terms.
It’s pretty terrible if the vast majority of these teens would have suffered far less worse from just getting actual Covid. Or may have never gotten Covid at all.
