Israeli health officials are studying a “possible link” between the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine and heart muscle inflammation among young men, the Health Ministry said on Tuesday.
“There is some probability for a possible link between the second vaccine dose and the onset of myocarditis among young men aged 16 to 30. … This link became weaker the older the vaccinated individual is,” the epidemiological panel tasked with studying the possibility of a link said in a press release.
