I am a young man in my early 20s who became obsessed over the last year with digging heavily into medical literature. The goal? To evaluate the math regarding the covid vaccines’ risks and benefits after myocarditis/pericarditis was confirmed to be associated with the covid vaccines in May/June 2021.
Being in the riskiest age and gender category, I wanted to make an informed decision about whether to take it or not. My employer thankfully did not coerce me and allowed me to calmly consider my personal circumstances, history of prior infection, and the shifting data.Other young men were not so lucky. They were (and still are) being pressured into taking the vaccines (and even boosters) by the federal government, military, certain state governments, universities, and companies regardless of shifting data and prior covid recovery status. These mandates involve taking a risk to our cardiac health at the expense of loss of education, income, employer-provided health insurance, and other critical social goods.
