""We estimated between 1 and 10 extra events of myocarditis in 1 million people vaccinated with a first or second dose, but 40 extra cases in 1 million people infected with COVID-19," Oxford professor and study lead Julia Hippisley-Cox said."

The CDC didn't say anything about a "rushed vaccine timeline". Your source is pushing a political narrative. Even in the cohort of under 40, by the graphic presented in the article posted, the incidence of Myocarditis is around 15 per 1,000,000, or .0015%. Extremely rare. Given the potential for Myocarditis and other negative effects of actual COVID infection (like death in some cases), a reasonable risk. But sure, extend out the timeline for the second shot to be safe. Seems reasonable. The inflammatory reporting by "Townhall" is less so.

I stopped reading after this racist dog whistle: "The Centers for Disease Control is considering changing the timeline for the administration of a second Moderna and Pfizer Wuhan coronavirus vaccine dose."

"Wuhan coronavirus" really?

Also I don't see how them adjusting when people get the second shot is the admitting a 'rushed" timeline. Them adjusting the time between shots doesn't seem to be admitting anything and right now it's just a suggestion.

Zika Virus, its name comes from the Ziika Forest of Uganda.

Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever, its name comes from the Ebola River in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

West Nile Virus, self-explanatory.

German Measles, more formally known as Rubella, got the name "German measles" from the fact that all physicians who have worked toward the identification of the disease were German.

Ross River Fever (Australia), self-Explanatory

Guinea Worm, A parasitic nematode several feet long, European explorers named it for the Guinea coast of West Africa in the 17th Century, where it was first encountered by Europeans.

Omsk Hemorrhagic Fever, first encountered in the Omsk region of Russia after WWII

Lassa Hemorrhagic Fever, first identified in Lassa, Nigeria, in 1969

La Crosse Encephalitis, first encountered in La Crosse, Wisconsin, in 1963.

St. Louis Encephalitis, first identified 1933 in St. Louis, Missouri

Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, named for the Rocky Mountains but widespread in North America.

Lyme Disease, the name "Lyme disease" has Connecticut roots. While this disease has been present for thousands of years, it wasn’t until a large outbreak of cases in the Connecticut towns of Lyme and Old Lyme during the 1970s that the full syndrome was recognized.

A routine practice for common use disease names. Not a dog whistle. Just a simple way to throw more nonsense at Democrats' political "orange boogey man."

My shot record also has Japanese encephalitis. This is when I was with the 426 civil Affairs battalion.

One of my neighbours son's got the inflammation of the heart and had to go to emergency twice. He is a teenager and we only have moderna in Canada. It's more than anecdotal evidence.

Lately and using that progressives don't like they call it racist. I had racist Japanese encephalitis and I have a shot record to prove it.

Asking for ID to vote is considered racist why Democrats who wanted to pass the recent voter fraud for Democrats bill but asking for proof of vaccination and your driver's license to prove its you is not.
