Canadian health authorities say they are monitoring reports of heart inflammation following mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, which are produced by Pfizer and Moderna, after U.S. officials reported a higher-than-expected number of cases in those who had received second doses.
Health Canada said a small number of these cases have been reported in Canada, but it is not yet known whether there is any link between them and mRNA vaccines. It added that it encouraged people to get immunized with any of the authorized and available vaccines.
... On Thursday, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) presented data that showed heart conditions were rare. But they were more frequent than the two agencies would normally expect among individuals aged 16 to 24. The cases were more common among males, especially after a second dose.
