COVID-19, according to an Israeli study, has a much higher risk of heart inflammation than Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccine.
According to Tel Aviv University researchers, there were three cases for every 100,000 persons who received the Pfizer vaccine. In persons who were infected with the virus, however, the risk was 11 per 100,000.
The results were published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Wednesday.
The report is the first to analyse the potential hazards of vaccination “in the context of knowing the potential advantages of vaccination,” according to Dr. Grace Lee, an infectious disease expert at Stanford University.
Previous studies have connected the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines to heart muscle inflammation. Male teenagers and young men were the most affected, with chest pain appearing a few days after immunisation.
According to US health experts, roughly 800 vaccine-related cases of two forms of inflammation – in the heart muscle and the lining of the heart – have been confirmed.
Hundreds of thousands of people were vaccinated and not vaccinated, according to the Clalit Research Institute. They looked at unvaccinated people who had been infected or had not been infected separately.
The researchers were constrained in their comparisons because they were studying two different groups of people. The study only looked at the Pfizer vaccination and did not break down the results by age or gender.
