New study: 133x risk of myocarditis after COVID vaccination

https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/321238

A recent study published on January 25, 2022, on JAMA Network, has shown that the risk of myocarditis following mRNA COVID vaccination is around 133 times greater than the background risk in the population.

The study, conducted by researchers from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) as well as from several U.S. universities and hospitals, examined the effects of vaccination with products manufactured by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna. The study’s authors used data obtained from the CDC’s VAERS reporting system which were cross-checked to ensure they complied with CDC’s definition of myocarditis; they also noted that given the passive nature of the VAERS system, the number of reported incidents is likely to be an underestimate of the extent of the phenomenon.

1626 cases of myocarditis were studied, and the results showed that the Pfizer-BioNTech product was most associated with higher risk, with 105.9 cases per million doses after the second vaccine shot in the 16 to 17 age group for males, and 70.7 cases per million doses after the second shot in the 12 to 15 age group for males. The 18 to 24 male age group also saw significantly higher rates of myocarditis for both Pfizer’s and Moderna’s products (52.4 and 56.3 cases per million respectively).

The study found that median time to symptom onset was two days, and that 82 percent of cases were in males, consistent with previous studies. Around 96 percent of affected people were hospitalized, with most treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs; 87 percent of those hospitalized had resolution of symptoms by time of discharge.

At the time of data review, two reports of death in people younger than 30 years of age with potential myocarditis still remained under investigation and were not included in the case counts.

Among the reported symptoms were: chest pain, pressure, or discomfort (89%), shortness of breath (30%), abnormal ECG results (72%), and abnormal cardiac MRI findings (72%).

The study’s authors noted that myocarditis following vaccination appeared to resolve more swiftly than in typical viral cases; however, given that vaccination is no longer considered a reliable way in which to avoid COVID infection, it is unclear whether this has any specific relevance to the cost-benefit analysis of COVID vaccination, especially considering the low risk of complications following coronavirus infection for the age group most at risk for heart-related complications following vaccination.

Given the plethora of studies confirming a link between vaccination and myocarditis, the CDC has commenced active surveillance of adolescents and young adults to monitor their progress following heart-related incidents after vaccination. Long-term outcome data, however, are not yet available.

In the meantime, the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology advise that people with myocarditis should refrain from competitive sports for three to six months, and only resume strenuous exercise after normal ECG and other test results are obtained. In addition, they advise that further mRNA vaccine doses should be deferred.

In conclusion, the study’s authors note that myocarditis is a “rare but serious adverse event that can occur after mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccination … [and that] the risk of myocarditis after receiving mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines was increased across multiple age and sex strata and was highest after the second vaccination dose in adolescent males and young men. This risk should be considered in the context of the benefits of COVID-19 vaccination.”

I’ll say it again- Israel is a real puzzler to me. They are on the front lines discovering and pointing out the danger of the vaccines… and yet, they are as rabid as any country for support of the snake oil. They have lost their collective minds. They should be screaming for the cessation of the use of this unnecessary for most of the population garbage. But they do not.

The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

80% of covid patients in the local hospital are non-vaxed and this percentage has remained pretty constant.[/quote]

My niece works as a pharmacist at a local hospital. If you ask a conservative nurse there this question - it's 50/50. Probably an honest answer. If you ask a liberal nurse - it's 99% unvaccinated. Either way - the vast majority of these media statistics are unverifiable.

MIT prof: Israel in 'moral bankruptcy' due to COVID policy

https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/321105

Prof. Retsef Levi of the Public Emergency Council for the Coronavirus Crisis says Omicron has toppled the government's COVID narrative.

Prof. Retsef Levi, an expert in risk management and health systems at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a member of the Public Emergency Council for the Coronavirus Crisis, wrote in a piece published on Thursday by Channel 12 that Israel is in a state of "moral bankruptcy" as a result of its coronavirus policy.

"The State of Israel is in the midst of moral and value-based bankruptcy caused directly by the hysterical, forceful and vindictive policies of Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz and the heads of the Ministry of Health, and enabled by de facto support or thunderous and embarrassing silence by the vast majority of government ministers, MKs, Supreme Court justices, intellectuals and the media.

"Anyone of sound mind who listens to Dr. Coetzee, the prudent and intelligent South African physician who discovered the appearance of the omicron variant and reported it to the world, understands that the omicron is actually a highly contagious cold, affecting most of the population at the level of a few days of runny nose, sore throat and possibly fever, and certainly less by orders of magnitude than influenza. Reports from around the world reinforce the understanding that the omicron, fortunately, spreads rapidly, provides long-term immunity to the infected, but does not pose any threat to most of us, the vaccinated as well as unvaccinated - a cold, unpleasant but going away within a few days.

"The omicron also completely collapsed the narrative of the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Health, not to mention making it a laughingstock. The lofty talk of victory in the battle against the virus through vaccines, the Green Pass, and more vaccines have crashed in the face of reality. It has become clear over and over again that the vaccinated become infected and infect, and even - what can you do? - the 'protected' become infected and infect en masse. It turned out that corona vaccines will not defeat this virus, even if the Ministry of Health uses them as a preventative treatment given every four months.

"With a startup past we would expect Bennett to do what is called in high-tech pivoting, changing direction, and recognize the new reality, and the need to return to sanity and a normal life in the country. We would expect him to finally announce that the state of emergency in Israel has ended, and if he doesn't, the Knesset should do so, and if not the Knesset, the Supreme Court should do so. You would expect him to focus on protecting vulnerable populations, and restoring the mental health of Israeli children. But instead, all of these officials seem to have joined together in the goal that the prime minister has defined of 'embittering the lives of the unvaccinated.' The economy, businesses, children, education and even health are not important, but only to embitter the lives of those who are unvaccinated, unprotected.

"Those who are not vaccinated include about 40% of the Israeli population, many of them combat soldiers and commanders in the army, scientists, teachers, police officers - the salt of the earth. The Ministry of Health calls them in sponsored advertisements and statements in the media by the contemptible derogatory nickname 'anti-vaxxers,' although most of them are vaccinated with all routine vaccines, and even the first two vaccines for corona. To them senior members of the health care system, and 'liberal' thinkers, claim medical treatment should not be given. According to them, a person who has evaded military service, smokes, drinks alcohol excessively and eats to the point of morbid obesity should be treated if he has been vaccinated with three corona vaccines. According to them, a terrorist who remains wounded at the scene of an attack should be treated, but Heaven forbid not a decorated commander, a talented scientist or a dedicated teacher, if they dared to exercise their right not to be vaccinated, or even if they refused to take a booster. Absurd and disgraceful.

"The State of Israel is in the midst of moral bankruptcy, because while the Ministry of Health is considering whether to allow a [corona] confirmed doctor to treat patients, it insists on house arresting a child who tests negative, after being exposed to a confirmed 'protected' teacher, only because his parents decided not to vaccinate him. No science, no health - vindictiveness for its own sake. This is a betrayal, no less, of the state in its basic duty to provide and enable education for all Israeli children without discrimination. The mask seems to have been removed, and there is no longer even a pretense - they are embittering the lives of the unvaccinated children. Disgraceful.

"'There is no choice,' they have been telling us in the Ministry of Health for two years, it's an emergency, the health system is about to collapse. Those with in-depth understanding who have managed the major health systems in Israel will say without hesitation that this is completely incorrect. However, it is also worth telling the Ministry of Health and the Government that if after two years you have not learned to strengthen the excellent and dedicated medical staffs in hospitals and the community, in order to allow normal life in Israel alongside corona, flu and other winter viruses, you should hand in the keys and go home.

"And yes, it is possible to do things differently. There are countries, unfortunately few, where healthy children go to school all the time, and even without masks. States like Florida that are thriving economically, and where the leadership understands that educating children is health, that people working is health, that normalcy and calm are health.

"Prime Minister, Health Minister, ministers, Knesset members, Israeli judges - restore normalcy, cohesion, compassion and health to the citizens of Israel - or you will be directly responsible for this moral bankruptcy."

True, and if they show shots of the crowd during the game, it will look as bizarre as it really is.

It goes even beyond that. How many people are in the hospital because of Covid, versus those who are in the hospital for some other reason and simply tested positive for Covid? It goes way beyond ideology, its now about rampant and blatant dishonesty in pursuit of an agenda that crumbling.

Would really be hillarious if everyone in attendance all stood up at the end of the National Anthem (assuming there is one), removed their face diapers and threw them onto the field. Won't happen, but it would be epic.

What if a large portion of the crowd said “fuck it” and took them off and refused to put them back on? My guess is they’d start the game and do close up shots of the sheep wearing their muzzles. A lot of money at stake to the NFL and the very businesses that support vaccinations and mask wearing.

How long ago? Will you also take the booster?


I was vax'd last February and took the booster two weeks ago.

The problem is that you cannot verify a statement like this. These claims are made all the time. There is no validity to these claims because there is no way for them to be verified by a believable source, none....



Sorry but I'm sure the "claim" is accurate in the hospital I referenced. I have quite a number of friends who work and have worked in this hospital as docs and nurses. One of the nurses is head of her shift in the covid wing, in fact is the one who early on in spite of all precautions carried the virus home to her (doctor) husband, (my friend) who I referenced that had to be ventilated and survived. Other close friends who are shooting buddies, that I ride with, etc. include surgeons, a board member, one of the docs was the previous Chief of Staff of this hospital. So they are absolutely in the know. All happen to be conservative, pro 2nd amendment, Trump supporters, anything BUT Fauci followers. When they say "we only deal with a minority of people with covid but they are the ones who have it the worst and often die, for reference our patients have been running about 80% unvax'd / 20% vax'd". I know it's true.

What is considered vaccinated? When the regiment was 2 shots you were not considered vaccinated until 14 days after the last shot. Now the CDC has come out and said if you have not received a booster you are out of date on your vaccines.

So what critera establishes the definiton of vaccinated these hospitals are using?

Right, I bet I could find more than one unvaccinated employee (unless the hospital will only allow vaxxed caregivers to work there) Which is another reason for not believing the line of bs of your hospital ridewv. Those employee's would provide a completely different conclusion about this topic. Many caregivers across the country have consistently done so. Who has more of an agenda. Follow the money. So no, you are not believable. Sorry.

Btw, I couldn't care less whether you got the jabs or not.

What would be the point? The criteria for "vaccinated" changes from day-to-day.

First it was "two jabs." Then it started becoming "two jabs plus the booster." Tomorrow it may become "two jabs plus the booster plus the booster booster," followed the day after by "... plus the booster booster booster."
