The primary series of the messenger RNA-based vaccines, made by Pfizer and Moderna, have already been linked to heart inflammation , but not as much research has been done on whether booster doses also present heart-related risks.
In the study, French researchers analyzed 4,890 myocarditis cases admitted to hospitals in the country between Dec. 27, 2020, and Jan. 31, 2022. They used 48,900 controls from the general population, matching for gender, age, and area of residence.
Receipt of a COVID-19 vaccine booster was found to result in an elevated risk of myocarditis, a type of heart inflammation, particularly receipt of a Moderna booster.
The adjusted risk after a Pfizer booster was three times higher among the boosted, and four times higher after a Moderna booster.
For people aged 12 to 29, the risk was 4.9 times higher for Pfizer booster recipients. Data for young Moderna booster recipients was not available because France suspended use of the vaccine in October 2021, and only made it available again the following month for those over 30 years old.
For those aged 30 and above, a Pfizer booster was associated with a 2.4 times higher risk of heart inflammation, while Moderna’s booster brought a 4.1 times higher risk.
The risks were more elevated if a person received the third dose within 170 days of the first dose. A booster is the third dose because a primary series is comprised of two doses. Similarly, the risk of myocarditis after the second dose is higher in cases where a person receives the dose within 27 days of the first dose.U.S. authorities have […]

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
