The MMWR study on Pediatric Patients and Myocarditis

In this episode of Kid’s Corner, Dr. Mumper discusses pediatric myocarditis. Listen as she dives deep into a study about the incidence of myocarditis in pediatric patients in comparison to the COVID-19 natural infection versus the mRNA vaccines. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/pdfs/mm7114e1-H.pdf

Dr. Mumper demystifies the data in the study and the study design and compares it to the recommendations from CDC Director, Dr. Mandy Cohen. Especially with matters of heart health (like infant myocarditis), we encourage you to read the study, watch these videos, and form your own opinion.
