There was always an existing doubt about the side effects Covid vaccine with several cases of people developing myopericarditis. While the numbers were small, the inflammation of the heart was a serious concern. Now, researchers have claimed that myopericarditis after a Covid jab is not a risk greater than the same posed by any other vaccination. In a study conducted in Singapore, the researchers revealed that the chances of developing myopericarditis are about 18 cases per million dosages. When grouped, non-Covid vaccinations have an average of 56 cases of myopericarditis per million doses. They also noted that myocarditis was more common in individuals who have taken mRNA jabs, with a 10-fold increase in the risk of developing heart conditions in males after the second dose. 

The researcher added that the risk of such adverse events overweighted the benefits of vaccination in terms of hospitalization, infection, and mortality rates. The study results can be used to frame policies regarding the administration of mRNA vaccine to the young male population.
