Another statement about the danger of vaccination against coronavirus infection is diverging on the Internet - allegedly vaccinated by 800% more often from inflammation of the myocardium. We decided to check if such a fear is confirmed by scientific data.
This information appeared on the site "So we will win!", their group on the social network Facebook* (19,000 subscribers) and Telegram channel (more than 10,000 subscribers), as well as in blog Nech by Veniamin Zaitsev on the website of Livejournal and on his page on Facebook (more than 17,000 subscribers). Each of the records has dozens of reposts, while evaluating the general distribution is difficult due to the fact that users, probably wanting to bypass the Facebook algorithms, which, under posts containing certain keywords, offers to familiarize themselves with reliable information regarding coronaviral infection, divided not by the text itself, but screenshot Messages s attached link to third -party Resources (Livejournal and Telegram). Also, to bypass algorithms in the text, instead of the word “vaccination”, the designation “B” is used, in such the same style decorated and other posts groups “So we will win! With V. Zaitsev. " Information about the relationship between the vaccine from the Covid-19 and myocarditis was actively distributed in the form of a mailing list in the WhatsApp messenger.
Myocarditis is inflammation myocardial (heart type muscle tissue that forms the thickness of the walls of ventricles and atrial), which is often accompanied by necrosis of the muscle cells of the heart (cardiomyocytes). The causes of myocarditis are diverse - these are infectious diseases (including coronavirus infection), the ingress of cardiotoxins (combat or natural poisons), taking certain drugs, systemic diseases, etc. However, most often myocarditis is idiopathic, that is, the reason for its occurrence remains unknown. Treatment may include taking various drugs, a temporary installation of a pacemaker and (in some cases) surgical intervention. Moreover, according to data 2022, published in the leadership of the British Medical Journal (BMJ; a reviewed scientific journal publishing articles in the field of medicine since 1840), a significant number of cases of myocarditis are asymptomatic and the patient recovers independently. Mortality from all causes among patients hospitalized due to acute myocarditis in the UK Compiled Only 4%. For comparison: mortality in diagnosed heart attack in 2022 in the UK Assessed About 30%.
The mailing list is based on three sources: the study of the French scientific group EPI-PHARE, the report “INSUSION OF THE MOCARDA / Myocarditis after Buster vaccination of the MRNA COVID-19”, which is the cardiologist Christian Oygen Muller, presented to the European Cardiologists Society, and the data from the American system of VARS (reporting systems for unwanted phenomena vaccination). Let's figure out in more detail with each of the sources of information and the information posted in them.
French scientific group EPI-PHARE in July 2022 really Published A study on the connection between coronavirus vaccination and myocarditis, however, the authors of the newsletter incorrectly interpreted its results. For example, the newsletter states that “the risk of myocarditis increases after the second injection of the vaccine and more significantly after a booster dose”, while the study is about the opposite situation: “This (after the first booster (third) dose. - Ed.) Risk lower than after the second dose, and decreases with the lengthening of the time between consistent doses.” Moreover, scientists note that the risk of myocarditis after a booster dose of the Spikevax vaccine (it was developed by Moderna) is 0.00025%, and for Comirnaty (it was developed by Biontech and Pfizer) - 0.00114%. At the same time, according to the American collegium of cardiologists, the risk of myocarditis, which arose against the background of coronavirus infection, It is 0.045%, which is 180 times higher than the risk with a booster dose of Spikevax, and 39 times higher than when receiving the third dose of Comirnaty. However, there is no such comparison in the newsletter with a warning about the danger of vaccination, which misleads the reader with respect to really existing risks.
Further, the authors of the newsletter refer to the data obtained during the prospective (evaluating the effect of intervention or factor, and in which, before the outputs, the study participants are divided into groups that are exposed or not exposed to the studied intervention or factor) researchspent on the basis of the university clinic in the Swiss Basel. The criterion for determining myocarditis was an analysis for a special substance - Troponin, protein, which is normally contained in the heart muscle and does not penetrate the bloodstream in the determined amount. If troponin is found in a significant amount in the patient’s venous blood, this condition is called troponemia and indicates the presence of some kind of myocardial damage. Troponin rises Not only with myocarditis, but also with other diseases of the heart, for example, with heart attack. Of the 777 people who received the third, a booster dose of MRNC-vaccines, 40 in the framework of a regular blood test, an increase in troponin was recorded. In 18 cases, there were other reasons for such an increase, in addition to vaccination, in 22 cases, the increase could not be explained by other factors. Based on the results obtained, scientists concluded that the risk of troponinemia for those who made a booster vaccination is 2.8%. At the same time, the authors of the study took a figure of 0.0035% for the generally populated risk (myocardits that arose from all reasons are taken into account) and concluded that after the third dose the risk increases by 800%. By the way, in the mailing list twice the wording “800 times” and once “800%”, although several times are not translated in this way, because “800 times” corresponds to an increase “by 79 900%”, while an increase “by 800%” is a change by nine times.
At the same time, an important fact is missed in the newsletter: in their article, scientists note that the statistics, on the basis of which the generally formal risk has been bred, only cases that require medical care are included, and their study is aimed at identifying the blood even flowing asymptomatically, that is, not delivering the patient to the patient and did not lead to the faculty of specialists. Separately, the authors of the work noted that although 40 cases of myocarditis were identified among the vaccinated, not one of them was accompanied by the main adverse cardiovascular events (an umbrella term that includes hospitalization in heart failure, ventricular arrhythmia, myocardial infarction and death from cardiovascular pathologies). That is, if these people were not participants in the study, they would not even understand that they received some complication. It turns out that we do not know the true risk of myocarditis by a population diagnosed only by blood tests (no one will take a regular analysis for troponin regularly, and many may not even suspect that at some point they had this condition). Thus, the article compares not quite correctly selected parameters: the risk of symptomatic myocarditis, which requires seeking help and therefore falls into statistics, and the risk of increasing troponin in analyzes, which is not felt by the patient and is detected only as part of the study. Moreover, scientists write about this, and the newsletter is silent.
Finally, the third source of information in the newsletter is a system of reporting on unwanted vaccination phenomena (Vaers). It is jointly conducted by CDC and FDA to collect data on unwanted phenomena after the vaccine enters access. Data from this system became more than once Basic for manipulation judgments that Disassembled How "Checked", So our Colleagues-FACECHERS. The fact is that this system involves self -reporting about undesirable phenomena, that is, the patient himself, not a doctor, introduces the data to it. Accordingly, it is impossible to correctly assess what consequences occurred due to vaccination, and which simply happened after the administration of the drug is impossible. Very accurately Vaers disadvantages Describes Director of the Institute of Security of the University of Jones Hopkins Daniel Salmon: “If I received a vaccine from Covid-19, and then my dog was shot down by a car, I can indicate this fact in the report of unwanted phenomena, and it will appear in the database. However, this will not mean that the car knocked my dog because I vaccinated. ”
It is also worth paying attention to the resource that spreads this newsletter. She appeared on the blog on Livejournal There is a certain Veniamin Zaitsev, who calls himself a biochemist by education. His blog is included in the top 500 of the most popular in Livejournal. In addition to the “Living Journal”, Zaitsev actively conducts personal page And group on Facebook, as well as website Under the name "So we will win!" at INVERMEC.Space. The domain name of the site, which is constantly found on the Blog and on the social networks of Zaitsev, hashtag “Ive” and the heading of the site (for example, “where to buy Ivermectin”, “FAQ by Ivermectin” and “Ivermectin calculator”) lead us to the idea that this is actually a project to popularize coronavirus treatment Ivermectin - veterinary antiparasitic drug that does not have proven antiviral activity and not intended for use by people. WHO, US Diseases Control and Prevention Centers (CDC) and Kokrainovskaya library (one of the largest resources for evidence -based medicine) is not recommended to use vermectin to treat a new coronavirus infection.
In their work, factor regularly encounter manipulation and false statements regarding Ivermectin:
- In 2020, Kazakhstani resource Factcheck.kz Checked, is it true that Ivermectin treats Covid-19 in two days, and came to the conclusion that this is a manipulation;
- In 2021, the Ukrainian resource "VOKS Ukrainian" analyzed the statement "Donald Trump was cured of the Covid-19 thanks to the method of Vladimir Zelenko"(Including just the use of Ivermectin) and designated it as an unproven judgment;
- In 2021, the Factsing Department of the Reuters agency Disassembled The publications that veterinary Ivermectin is permissible to use in public, and came to the conclusion that this is not so;
- In 2022, American Factcheck.org found out, is it true that clinical trials showed the benefits of Ivermectin in the treatment of coronavirus infection - it turned out that this statement is not true;
- In 2022, the British resource Full Fact Published The material that the National Institute of Health of the United States allegedly added Ivermectin to the list of treatment methods Covid; Facts have found out that this is not so.
All the fact of the Cherski about Ivermectin can be found in the special section of Google - Search by fact Chek. Unfortunately, the functionality of the site does not imply display the number of results, however, according to the data coronavirus alliance (Association of Factchera under the leadership of the Pointer Institute), about Ivermectin Prepared 182 Fact. It is worth remembering that these are only analysis that have been released on the resources that are part of the IFCN (international cobbler network), while there are many projects in the world that are not yet included (for example, “verified”).
Thus, although the newsletter refers to real scientific publications, these from them are submitted incorrectly, with errors, inaccuracies and distortions. Moreover, speaking about the risk of post -cocked myocarditis, the authors of the mailing lusting that this risk is 180 times (for the Spikevax vaccine) and 39 times (for Comirnaty) lower than the risk of getting the same complication, but not from the vaccine, but from the coronaviral infection itself. In addition, the source source in Russian is a site that popularizes treatment with a veterinary antiparasitic drug that did not demonstrate effectiveness in clinical trials and not included in the treatment standards of Covid.
*Russian authorities They think Meta Platforms Inc., which owns the social network Facebook, an extremist organization, its activities in Russia are prohibited.
