I've still on the fence about this. COVID itself is awful for your heart. 2.3% of the infected get sub-clinical myocarditis. We are still waiting on what the number is for the vaccine recipients.

But given that the disease itself causes cardiac issues, I wouldn't be surprised if all this cardiac disease we are seeing is just caused by the virus. Eagerly awaiting the vaccine studies.

"We found excess risk of serious AESIs to exceed the reduction in COVID-19 hospitalizations in both Pfizer and Moderna trials." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9428332/

You don't have to wait. The results are here. And please note that having the vaccines doesn't stop you from getting covid. So getting the vaccine simply increases your risk of damaging yourself.

Unvaccinated: 2.3% after infection
Vaccinated: 2.3% after infection + vaccine risk
