If the condition suddenly spiked once children started getting the jab...

Then dismissing any connection to the jab is...

Not following the science.

The jab causes adverse reactions.

To deny that is to deny the science.

No, the condition spiked after children began to get the infection, not the vaccine, and was found more commonly after being actively searched for, which is something that happens all the time.

The experts have the data and have concluded that vaccination is not related to an increase of the risk, exactly the opposite of what happens with infection.

So it is actually folloing the science, just not the deceiving misrepresentation that antivaxxer groups are trying to push to mislead people into having unnecessary anxiety about it.

I suppose that's minor compared to having mRNA reverse transcribed into them (now confirmed)

"confirmed" in culture of cancerous cells well known to be unrepresentative of the actual risks of reverse transcription precisely because they lack the controls that healthy cells have to prevent it? are you going to be surprised also that cultured cells are more fragile to changes in temperature than living people?

Also, pretending this risk is not hugely more important in the natural infection that produces orders of magnitude more mRNA from the virus (and not only the spike protein but dozens other genes) without any damaging effect on the body being identified makes absolutely no sense. If the vaccines had any realistic risk of producing negative changes by integration that would have been detected already, and it would be a problem thousands of time more likely to appear during infections.

"unlikely"..... duh of course.

Meanwhile, without the mRNA shot healthy kids NEVER get myocarditis. Not "unlikely".

Young people aren’t at risk from COVID.

Treatments are highly effective.

I'll make sure to call my friend's whose child died of Covid last year and tell them that. It should make them feel better that you said that. And it should also bring their kid back to life right? Because it must have been a mistake since young people aren't at risk from covid.

Young people aren’t at risk from COVID.

I'll make sure to call my friend's whose child died of Covid last year and tell them that. It should make them feel better that you said that. And it should also bring their kid back to life right? Because it must have been a mistake since young people aren't at risk from covid.

It appears that children are more vulnerable to this omicron strain, yet older adults are still a higher risk due to other conditions. either way, it's time to quit listening to these lying loudmouths and get vaxxed. It's a moral and ethical matter for you, me, all 8 billion people on planet Earth. And worthy clergy of every religion are saying the same thing.

That's why I haven't gone to any major gathering or event for 2 years. I don't like it but I have to do my part to fight it. We all do.

Read the article, healthy children infected with SARS-CoV-2 got myocarditis at alarming rates, your comment is demonstrated false in the text.

Young people aren’t at risk from COVID.

Yes they are, the professionals that say so based on data are simply a much more reliable source than anonymous people on the internet that want to live in denial.

Most kids who had COVID-19 don’t develop the post-infection illness, but it is estimated to happen at a significantly higher rate than both of those post-vaccination figures. In April to June 2020, the rate was 200 cases per million in unvaccinated infected people aged 12-20 in the U.S.

I suspect they mean 200 cases per million of confirmed infected kids. The actual number of infected kids is much higher.

Where does it say they were healthy? One thing that is alarmingly high in the US is the obesity, even in kids.

Healthy kids are not significantly affected by Covid19, they do not need these risky "vaccines."

I suspect they mean 200 cases per million of confirmed infected kids. The actual number of infected kids is much higher.

You suspected the Japanese population was already infected and immune to COVID in 2020, this is no rational reason to even think the actual professionals that examine epidemiological data for a living have made wrong estimations.

Where does it say they were healthy? One thing that is alarmingly high in the US is the obesity, even in kids.

Prove then, with actual data (not suspicions) that this is the case, just making baseless assumptions that would be extremely important if true, and therefore not left out of the description, is not an argument.

Healthy kids are not significantly affected by Covid19, they do not need these risky "vaccines."

Pediatricians and other professionals in public health say you are completely wrong, they are a much more trust worthy source of information and they have the data to support their recommendations. You on the other hand have never produced any data to prove that any population is at a higher risk from vaccines than from the infection, even if requested repeatedly, this means you can understand your position is mistaken, but still you choose to repeat it, which only leads to people being mislead into believing it may be true when it is not.

I have consistently stated that the confirmed infections are only a fraction of total infections, especially here in Japan where it appears to be very difficult to get tested (according to many posters on JT)

this is no rational reason to even think the actual professionals that examine epidemiological data for a living have made wrong estimations.

The epidemiologists described in MSM will use whatever data will support their narrative...

No, you're the one that said the article demonstrated that "healthy children infected with SARS-CoV-2 got myocarditis at alarming rates". The article does not say anything about these kids being healthy.

That is not enough to prove the estimations are not adequate, specially since you have repeatedly stated things that have been completely wrong as in the example.

The epidemiologists described in MSM will use whatever data will support their narrative...

As long as you have no evidence that this is wrong the only logical behaviour is to consider it correct, there is something much worse that making conclusions and recommendations based on data obtained from patients, and that is to arbitrarily ignore it to fit your narrative. Do you have data that contradicts this? if not you have no argument.

No, you're the one that said the article demonstrated that "healthy children infected with SARS-CoV-2 got myocarditis at alarming rates". The article does not say anything about these kids being healthy.

The article talks about children in general, you want this to be misrepresented to fit in what you believe (which is that only sick children get COVID) but in reality there is nothing that support that personal conclussion of yours, it is perfectly logical to assume the children that developed myocarditis after infection with SARS-CoV-2 are all suffering from preexisting conditions having exactly zero evidence to prove it.

Again, provide evidence the children that developed the problem are all specially vulnerable or accept you have no basis for such conclusion. Previous reports have detected cases of cardiac problems after infection even in children with mild or no symptoms, this completely contradicts your personal belief.
