Did your pharmacist tell you where he got this information?

The new vaccine is the "next generation" of several previous versions, similar to the way the flu shot changes each year to cover newer strains of the virus. There are no statistics available yet about it because it is just being distributed.

Please read this from the Sloane-Kettering Institute:
https://www.mskcc.org/coronavirus/myths-about-covid-19-vaccines

As for heart risks, there are a VERY small number who develop myocarditis after a Covid vaccine - about 4 events per million injections (primarily in males age 17-30.) By comparison risk of heart problems after being hospitalized for Covid is 6 per 100 cases.

The older you are, the more likely Covid is to be severe enough to send you to the hospital because your immune system is not as strong as a younger person. If you have any or all of the common issues of the older body - high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, lung conditions, you are at even higher risk of getting a severe infection if you get Covid.

It makes me sad to see medical professionals we trust spreading information that is inaccurate or misleading.

Please consider consulting your physician about getting vaccines. They can make the best recommendations based on your health.
