A 38-year-old man
- 1 day after the 1st dose of te #CovidVaccine (Moderna): upper extremity pain; 4 days later: pleuritic chest pain
⇒ Fulminant lymphocytic myocarditis & cardiogenic shock

A 22-year-old woman
- 8 days after #COVIDVaccination (AstraZeneca, 1st dose): fever, myalgia, sore throat, diarrhea, vomiting. Next day: continuous chest pain. Later: atrial fibrillation & generalized macular rash
⇒ Multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS)

#CovidVaccines in general may cause thromboembolic events, such as cerebral vein thrombosis, & mRNA-based vaccines in particular may cause myocarditis/pericarditis, with the latter more likely to occur in younger adults after the second vaccination dose."

A 27 and 38-year-old man.
"The long-term outcomes of COVID-19 vaccine-related myocarditis remain unclear."

Cases of #CovidVaccine-induced myocarditis/pericarditis are more likely to be reported ...
- in adolescents (12–17 y) or young adults (18–24 y)
- in males
- in recepients of the Pfizer–BioNTech vaccine
- after the second dose

18-year-old man

- "Almost 9,300 more people than usual have died from conditions unrelated to coronavirus since July"
- "More investigation is needed to understand this."

"With the rise of the percentage of vaccinated humans, we expect the virus to shift its evolutionary preferences towards escape mutations."

Some people are exposed to #SARSCoV2 but never test positive or produce any antibodies to the virus. Pre-existing RNA-polymerase-specific T-cells seem be responsible: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-04186-8
Do the #CovidVaccines influence these RTC-specific T-cells?

- Face masks release plastic microfibers
- Mechanical deformation of the mask increases the release
⇒ A problem for mask wearers and for the environment (pollution through microplastics)
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048969721055352#f0025

"Face masks release microplastics, which are directly inhaled during use or transported through the environment. The latter can adsorb chemical contaminants and harbor pathogenic microbiota ... potentially causing detrimental and cytotoxic effects."

“Antiviral” and “antimicrobial” face masks contain different metalic nanoparticles.
This study found nanoparticles of silver, titanium dioxide, aluminum, silica, magnesium, yttrium, ytterbium, etc.: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.chas.1c00005
These particles will be inhaled.
