By that same ratioed analysis, about 80 males between the ages of 12-15 out of 3 million have had myocarditis as a result of the vaccine.  That's about .0008%. Yet, people are losing their minds over this miniscule risk.  Death is not the only risk COVID poses for children; many have some long term pulmonary effects.[/quote]

Yes but the myocarditis risk should be looked at differently (your myocarditis numbers are low by the way, but I'll ignore that).  You compare:

1) A healthy young male with no pre-existing conditions that has that is being vaccinated (80 in 3 million risk)

2) A healthy young male's risk from COVID times his risk of ever catching COVID.  The risk to a health young male from COVID is much lower than 80 in 3 million and then they have to actually catch COVID.

Also when talking about kids 5-11, their risk from COVID is even less than the risk to a 12-15 year old.[/quote]

You are not accounting for The risk of catching covid this fall with a) more contagious Delta being the dominant strain and b) schools and activities open at full capacity, many without masks

The European Medicines Agency cited a myocarditis rate of 1-2 cases per million for vaccinated teens, which is actually much *lower* than the PPs rate of 80/3 million.[/quote]
