Looks like Israel reports turned out to be true regarding myocarditis link with the pfizer vaccine. Before that, it was the EU who "detected" the link between clots and AZ. I am only bringing this up because I don't know if the vaccines given in third world countries will ever be put to a real test if patients don't have the privilege to seek medical help from their family doctors or emergency departments like patients in Europe & Israel do.

Apparently its pretty rare (we're talking like ~50 cases out of 5million jabs), and primarily happends to young adult men (30 and below).
Inflamation of the heart muscles is serious though..... the good news is that in most cases it just goes away on its own, without long term effects.

I saw a video of a doctor saying he thinks that everyone before the jab (with these mRNA vaccines) should be told, dont do any hard labour or workouts, upto a week after takeing the first and 2nd jab. As that would basically safeguard, most people (these young men, that take it) from getting long term effects from it.

And how big of a percentage were those cases? Because seeing the number of people that are dying every day from the actual sickness, I'm totally fine with taking the risk of getting a few cases of myocarditis and clots.

I think in the USA, theres been like ~80-140 cases (off camra, confirmed, "several dozen cases atleast" comment).
In isreal its like 50-60ish? or so, and theres been some in europe as well.

So this isnt super common.
In isreal I think it was like 50 cases out of more than 5million vaccinations.
Also this is almost exclusively happending with young men (adults 30 or under).
And alot of it (those that get lasting issues), is because of active lifestyles (ei. hard labour or workouts).

Basically, just dont stress your heart, a week or so, after the jab.
Take it nice and slow, if your worried about heart issues resulting from vaccination (esp. if your a young man).

Thanks for the information. I am double vax'ed with pfizer and I had covid19. But good to know for booster vaccines.
