That’s a headline and not a study, I read the study in the article. The study states teens who took 2 doses are x7 as likely versus those with 1 dose. Which means 3 in 100000 (or 1 in 33000) for the first those and 22 in 100000 (or 1 in 5000). That’s way off from 1 in 40.

The findings are still concerning and it’s good that they’re being documented and the research paper is even published on PubMed. And based on the findings, policies across countries are being adjusted. And I learned something new.

But what you stated (1 in 40) is misinformation, and that is not helping anyone. And it makes valid criticism look ridiculous. I’ll leave you with that.

I’m sorry man, but when you make outrageous statements like 1 in 40 vaccinated teens get myocarditis and respond with “do your own research” when asked for a source, do you expect a different response?

But now that you did link it. Where does it say 1 in 40?

Whether we should vaccinate adolescents is debatable given the low risk factor, and the study linked in the article mentions exactly that - in places without severe outbreaks, it’s probably best not to or at least not twice (what the researchers from the paper say and not the journalist).
