Two separate vaccine studies have found that COVID-19 poses a higher risk of symptoms than the risk of certain rare vaccine symptoms.
One study out of Israel's Clalit Research Institute in Tel Aviv found that while the Pfizer/BioNTech slightly raises the risk of myocarditis, or heart inflammation, actually catching COVID-19 posed a higher risk for heart inflammation. Researchers looked at nearly 2 million people — some vaccinated, others unvaccinated and some who had COVID-19 and others who didn't — and monitored vaccinated people for 42 days after their first injection. Similarly, they monitored people who had COVID-19 and compared the two groups.More Related News
