Summary of NACI advice on vaccination with COVID-19 vaccines following myocarditis (with or without pericarditis)
Organization: Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC)Published: 2022
"Rare cases of myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the heart lining) following vaccination with COVID-19 mRNA vaccines have been reported in Canada and internationally. Most cases have occurred in males 12 to 29 years of age after a second dose of an mRNA vaccine. Most cases have been mild and resolved quickly.
Following review of the latest evidence and consultation with Canadian cardiologists, NACI has issued updated guidance on re-vaccination with COVID-19 vaccines for those who experienced myocarditis and/or pericarditis after a previous dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine." - Summary of NACI advice on vaccination with COVID-19 vaccines following myocarditis (with or without pericarditis)
