Two studies have found that the risk of heart disease following a corona vaccination is relatively low, especially when compared to the heart-related risks as a result of infection with corona itself, and vaccinations once morest other diseases.
One study, an analysis of 22 previous studies, found that the risks, including myocarditis, in people who received a corona vaccine were not significantly different from the risks of flu, polio and measles vaccines, and were lower than the risks following vaccination. Against smallpox for example.
The findings, which included data on the effects of more than 400 million doses of different vaccines, were published Monday in the journal “”The Lancet“.
Another analysis, published on April 1, by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States, found that the risk of heart complications, including myocarditis, was higher in people following infection with corona, compared to people who received a corona vaccine. .
Concerns regarding the potential side effects of coronavirus vaccines are one reason why some eligible adults in the United States say they won’t get the vaccines, according to surveys published by the newspaper.The Wall Street Journal“.
It is reported that regarding 70% of eligible Americans have been fully vaccinated once morest corona, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“People have to think regarding the risks on the other hand,” said Jason Berry Block, associate professor at Harvard Medical School and co-author of the CDC analysis. “If they’re not vaccinated and exposed to infection, the risk of heart complications is greater.”
It is reported that the US health authorities decided that the benefits of anti-Corona vaccines in preventing the virus and reducing deaths, outweigh the risks of developing myocarditis or other side effects.
