Heart Problems In Teens Following COVID Vaccines
The CDC has postponed their “emergency” ACIP meeting which was supposed to take place Friday, June 18th, to next week where it says it will look into the uptick in heart inflammation after the COVID vaccines, primarily in teens and young adults.
The two conditions of concern are myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle (myocardium), and pericarditis, swelling and irritation of the thin, saclike tissue surrounding your heart (pericardium).
Heart inflammation is generally so rare in teens and young adults, the fact that this is happening closely after vaccination suggests a causal connection, and much higher than what we would expect in a normal healthy population.
You can tune into the virtual meeting here.
According to the CDC:
“789 cases of myocarditis/pericarditis have been reported after the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna vaccines, most commonly after the second dose.”
However, according to OPENVAERS data which just pulls data from VAERS, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, there are at least 1342 reports of adverse reactions that involve pericarditis / myocarditis, from all age groups.
And then news media like NBC reduce the number of reports to 300 somehow. Gotta love MSM. It’s bad enough they lie through omission or clever language, it’s worse that most people genuinely take them at face value. Yes, it is more than 300. Try 700. That’s more than 300 right?
Well, looking specifically at VAERS, these are the number of reports. Keep in mind, many events go unreported, and some of these kids’ experiences may not even be reflected in VAERS data yet.
Clearly, this vaccine is far more harmful in children, than the actual virus.
Please parents, do your research!!
Heart Problems in Teens Following COVID Vaccines
Greyson, 19, a student at Ohio State University, received the Pfizer vaccine in May despite having contracted coronavirus last year.
A lifelong athlete, accustomed to running 15+ miles a day, his afternoons are now filled with hospital visits, medical testing (MRI, EKGs, ECHO, blood draws) and expensive stem cell therapy treatments.
“He didn’t want to do it. I thought it was best to get us back to normal. We are now facing a dangerous new normal in which my son has felt close to death, and no one can help him. He screams in pain, and feels like he’s having a heart attack, and his veins are about to explode.
I thought I was doing the right thing and I was wrong. I have felt so guilty about scheduling him for that damn thing, but I can’t take it back. Had I known the risk, and if the state wasn’t making it almost a social pressure to get the vaccine, I wouldn’t have done it, especially since he had it last year and built some natural immunity. I’ve been told now by doctors that we shouldn’t have done it.
To think that colleges will require it to go back is insane after what we’ve been through. I can’t believe colleges will force it knowing that this is occurring. Colleges (or anyone) shouldn’t be able to force someone to get a vaccine. It should be a personal choice.”
— Marie Follmer, mother
His mother also wrote this:
“Warning on the shot my 19 year old – athlete entire life has suffered big time. I wish I would never had done the shot for my children. I thought I was going to help him since he had allergies to so many things foods and environment.
He literally has played sports at elite level his entire life now can’t work this summer, can’t work out, and feels 24/7 that he’s having a heart attack and his veins are about to explode.
ER tons of times since the shot and no one can do anything. Even the night Lyla had surgery he called me and I spent the night in the ER with him while Lyla was in the ICU.
Now he’s getting stem cell treatment that is actually trying to fix the problem created. Thank God we got to see the osteopathic genius doc we are now seeing as his waiting list is several hundred long. We had no choice to try something as he’s literally screaming in pain through his body. What about other families suffering.
The government might want to consider paying him if it’s disabled him now instead of the vaX a million. Stem cells $6k a pop not covered by insurance (of course) to try anything to help but I handed over my credit card and will give all that I have to help him get better obviously.
It’s been terrifying. I think I may need to contact The CDC and Fox News on his situation.
I wish they would have warned us! Apparently it’s hitting athletes worse and may be because they are so fit gets into dna and multiples fast.
I don’t care what anyone says about it being safe at this point…. IT WASNT for my son.
My other teens were fine but they don’t have allergies like Greyson and when all three had covid last year in college only Greyson got sick…so I bought into the idea that I would be helping especially for him avoid getting sicker. I didn’t realize this virus really gets in and stays in the dna.
Oh and now he has high blood pressure. What 19?
This is bad people trust me.
Also at least they could do (DeWine) is pay for the medical bills and multiple tests families are now having to do for their kids vs vaX a million.:. MRI, several EKG, thousands in blood tests, ECHO, etc… or at least the pharma company’s when there is reaction… this is a MESS.
By the way I support vaccines but how about warnings and sharing when information is known about risks… I have felt so guilty about scheduling him for that damn shot. Can’t take it back but living the problems now for sure… and they are life threatening for him.
To add … ER had basically only said covid long haulers and does nothing for him…. followed up with Ohio health covid clinic they said they are studying thousands with long haulers and not his symptoms (but admits not many teens) and determined thyroid… so yes thyroid test is out of sack but like his lymph nodes all swelling from inflammation so his thyroid can’t keep up… entire body inflamed from the shot … thankfully we had connection for osteopathic genius and funds for stem cells to repair the damaged dna now but what about all the others??? Who is paying their vaX a million medical expenses?”
Nico, 14, began experiencing severe chest pains and had trouble breathing within 24 hrs of the first dose of Pfizer.
He was taken to the emergency room, more than once, and ultimately required hospitalization. He was diagnosed with myocarditis, inflammation of the heart. In total, he has undergone thirty two blood tests, six echocardiograms, two chest x-rays, four EKGs, and five troponin tests. He’s had numerous follow up appointments with a cardiologist for ongoing issues, and has been advised not to take the second dose.
“To all the parents out there:
Pay very close attention to all the symptoms of your Covid-19 vaccine and DO NOT take it lightly because my 14 yr old son was “that rare” case they say. I don’t care about statistical data because in all honesty I only have one son. When it’s your child in that hospital bed, you’re not going to care about anything else but his own life!
CDC has been notified according to our Kaiser Pediatric Cardiologist. I hope this helps them increase awareness to all the parents or anyone getting vaccinated.
We now have numerous follow-up appointments with his cardiologist and on-going chest pain that causes his shortness of breath.
#1st Vaccine Shot Diagnosis: Myocarditis”
— Nikki Oz, mother
Evan Morud, 18, is a healthy young man who was eager to get the new vaccine, and signed up as soon as he was eligible.
It was within 48 hrs. of getting the second Pfizer vaccine that he began to realize that something wasn’t quite right.
“I felt like my chest was really tight and my throat was really swollen up, like my lymph nodes and neck. I was winded just standing up from a sitting position. My gut feeling was telling me something was wrong.”
When his symptoms didn’t improve, Evan was brought to the hospital. At that point, his heart rate was 140 bpm, doubling what it should have been, and struggling to function. He was diagnosed with myocarditis, inflammation of the heart wall, a condition that can be fatal if not treated in time.
Despite catching it early on, Evan will still need to take heart medications for the next several months, but hopes to make a full recovery.
“He’s my one and only. He could’ve suffered permanent heart damage. Or sudden death as a result of this.”
— Charnell, mother
Kennedy, 19, received the second Pfizer vaccine and soon after began experiencing severe chest pain, pressure, and shortness of breath.
She was brought to the hospital where a team of doctors performed extensive testing and it was determined that she had myocarditis; inflammation of the heart wall. The team said she was the second young adult they knew of this happening to in the local area.
Kennedy is home now and will continue to be on heart medication for three to six months under the care of a cardiologist. It’s unknown whether or not there will be permanent damage to her heart.
I typically don’t post health related items on FB. After much thought I think it’s important people know about an issue we encountered this weekend.
Kennedy went into the ER with severe chest pain, pressure, and shortness of breath that came on suddenly. We immediately had a team of doctors working to figure out the issue which took 9 separate blood draws, a urinalysis, a Covid test, a chest x-ray, 2-EKG’s, CT scan, and an ultrasound of her heart.
Cardiologist from Hendricks Regional tied in with cardiologists from the Heart hospital and Community North to diagnose her.
We learned she has myocarditis. Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart wall and is not necessarily uncommon to have occur from a virus, but it’s extremely rare in Kennedy’s case. We were told Kennedy is the 2nd documented young adult in the Central Indy area to get this from a vaccine. We learned she developed myocarditis as a result of the 2nd Pfizer vaccine.
After a night of monitoring & heavy push of meds they did get her heart rate stabilized and I’m happy to report she’s now back home. She will be on heart medication for at least 3-6 months under the care of a cardiologist. They can’t tell us at this time if there will be any permanent damage.
For that I ask if you are one of faith and are willing to pray for her we would be grateful. I’m not here to debate pro vs. con vaccine.
I could care less who chooses to get it or not. What I want is for parents of kids & young adults to be educated.
Prior to this happening we had no knowledge this was a possibility, which makes me even angrier this has happened to my child. There’s a lot of pressure on this vaccine right now especially with many colleges saying you must have this to attend classes.
You try to do the right things for your family and community, but as a result our daughter may now have permanent heart issues. I only ask you to read this with an open mind and to learn from our experience.
Please if you choose to be vaccinated read up on myocarditis and don’t dismiss any of the warning signs.”
Simone Scott, 19, a student at Northwestern University, received the first dose of Moderna in April. She felt noticeably fatigued afterward and developed a bad cough, but thought it could be allergies.
Time passed and suddenly it was May, and she was due to receive the second dose. Although she was still not feeling herself, she stuck with the schedule and went in for it.
Over the next two weeks, she experienced frequent nose bleeds, a low-grade fever, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, and irregular heartbeat. During this time, she visited the student health clinic three times, where it was assumed she had some kind of virus and she was given antiviral medication.
By May 16, she had only gotten worse. Dizzy, seriously fatigued and unable to walk, Simone was admitted to the hospital where she and her family were told her heart was failing. Her doctors suspected it was myocarditis, and that “a virus was attacking her heart.”
An emergency surgery to insert a balloon pump was performed, but it failed and Simone was placed on a heart-lung bypass (ECMO). By May 23, doctors informed her parents that a heart transplant was her best option and she was blessed to receive one that evening.
Following the surgery, Simone continued to struggle and had to remain sedated. Her lungs had been severely damaged, and the immunosuppresive drugs she was given to tolerate the transplant led to a severe lung infection. On June 11, Simone’s parents were called in to say their last goodbyes. Simone passed away that Friday morning.
“I lost my only daughter. I never thought I’d have to give up my daughter for the greater good of society. I do suspect it was the v—ine. If not directly, it played a role. I never knew that there was a risk for something as serious as this. I would have wanted to.”
—Valerie, her mother
Gabe, 17, received the second dose of Pfizer and the following day began experiencing severe chest pains, dizziness, high fever, nausea, and vomiting.
After spending ten hours in the emergency room he was diagnosed with myocarditis, inflammation of the heart wall. The hospital admitted that this is an adverse reaction they’re beginning to see among adolescents, especially young males, who have received the vaccine. He’s being treated with various medications and has been sent home for observation.
“We told him to make the decision for himself (he’s almost 18). He’s not thinking it was such a good idea right now.”
— M. Gillespie, mother
Justin, 21, was told that he would need to be vaccinated in order to attend his college. Within 24 hrs of the second dose of the Moderna vaccine, he began experiencing heart palpitations, fever, and flu-like symptoms.
A day later, his Dad brought him to the hospital where he was admitted and diagnosed with myocarditis; inflammation of the heart muscle.
His doctors said that had he waited to be seen the damage to his heart could have been permanent. They also said they had noticed an increase in heart issues being seen in the emergency room; he was the sixth patient they had seen that week. They hadn’t connected the dots before, but plan to raise awareness about it going forward.
Justin was sent home within a few days and is being treated with medicine. He has scarring and continues to struggle with throbbing chest pain weeks later. Justin and his father want to get the word out about what happened to him, and stop these vaccines from being made mandatory for college students (or anybody, for that matter). They believe everybody should have the freedom to choose whether they get it or not, and be informed of the risks.
