It highlights studies linking these vaccines to pericarditis and myocarditis, noting that COVID-19-related cardiac injuries are more common. A possible mechanism involves the immune system reacting to mRNA in vaccines. Theories suggest hormonal factors may also play a role in increased inflammation among males.
