As the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) investigates rare reports of heart issues among adolescents and young adults who received COVID-19 vaccinations, Dr. Richard Besser says there is no clear link yet to the vaccines, and encourages parents to keep getting kids vaccinated.
Besser explained that a CDC advisory committee on vaccine safety analyzes data each week for potential red flags, and though reports of myocarditis appear to fall within normal rates, the committee is analyzing reports to make sure the vaccine isn’t a root cause.More Related News
