1. Ben Haynes:

   In recent weeks, there have been rare reports of myocarditis and pericarditis occurring after COVID-19 vaccination in the United States and Europe, myocarditis and pericarditis are side effects that can be seen following a viral infection and other types of vaccination. Reported cases appear to be mild and often go away without requiring treatment.

2. Paul Offit:

   There was concern this would be misunderstood -- that people would think myocarditis was associated with vaccine, a colleague who was on the call said' This could put the kibosh on teenage vaccination.'.

3. Paul Offit:

   I think we need to show why a booster dose is clearly of benefit to 18-29 year-olds, because if it's not clearly of benefit, we have to consider the fact that myocarditis was a second dose phenomenon and may also be a third dose phenomenon. Do the benefits clearly and definitively outweigh risks for 18-29 year old ?

4. Dave Montgomery:

   Taken together the studies support that SARS-CoV-2 does not have to cause clinical myocarditis in order to find the virus in large numbers and the inflammatory response in myocardial tissue. In other words, one can have no or mild symptoms of heart involvement in order to actually cause damage, viruses in general have a way of making their way to organs that are quite remote from the original site of infection. SARS-CoV-2 is no different in this regard.

5. Paul Offit:

   We're being asked to approve this as a three-dose vaccine for people 16 years of age and older, without any clear evidence the third dose for a younger person, when compared to an elderly person, is of value, if Stanford University Medical Center.They's not of value, then the risks may outweigh the benefits. And we know the 16-29-year-old is at higher risk of myocarditis.
