Fox News
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s COVID-19 vaccine advisory committee will attend an emergency meeting next week to discuss higher than expected reports of heart inflammation in young males who received their second dose of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.
As of May 31, the agency has received 275 preliminary reports of the heart inflammation — known as myocarditis and pericarditis — among 16 to 24-year-olds, CDC’s Dr. Tom Shimabukuro said Thursday. Over 12 million people within that age group have been fully vaccinated.More Related News
