The Modern Vaccine shows more myocarditis than previously thought. FDA and CDC investigate

American media published a report claiming that the Moderna coronavirus vaccine may be associated with a higher risk of myocarditis in young adults than previously believed. The report is based on new data from a Canadian study that has yet to be published, but which is filtered thanks to two researchers who unveiled it under guarantee of anonymity.

How much more dangerous is the Moderna vaccine than Pfizer? Well, preliminary data leaked to WaPo show that the risk of myocarditis could be up to 2.5 times higher for the US-made vaccine.

This in the US could be a very hard blow for Moderna, because, based on this news, citizens would prefer Pfizer to Moderna, also because both are mRNA vaccines.

WaPo sources pointed out that the new research has not yet been concluded and that there is still a lot of work to be done before the FDA decides on changing the warnings and contraindications.

The investigation, which involves the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is focusing on Canadian data that suggests that the Moderna vaccine may carry a greater risk for young people than the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, especially for males. younger. 30 or so. Authorities are also looking at US data to try to determine if there is evidence of an increased risk of Moderna in the US population.

The FDA and CDC will therefore examine the data from this research carefully before changing the contraindications which, however, will apply to minors in their 30s. Furthermore, according to the same sources, vaccines remain extremely safe.
