#myocarditis #pericarditis and #seizures occurred at higher rates in adolescents age 12 - 17 and children vaccinated for COVID-19 when compared with historical rates of those outcomes, according to an analysis of safety data from the FDA's Biologics Effectiveness and Safety (BEST) Initiative.
Researchers also detected a statistical signal for seizures after vaccination with the BNT162b2 vaccine among children ages 2 to 4 years and with the Moderna mRNA-1273 (Spikevax) vaccine among children ages 2 to 5 years. The study found a total of 72 cases of seizures among these children, the majority of which were #febrileseizures (71%). The median time between vaccination and seizure diagnosis was 2 days
