The coronavirus vaccine, like all other vaccines, could cause side effects. A swollen arm, tiredness, fever, and a headache are among the most commonly known side effects.
But, according to doctors and research experts, there is a small number of young adults who have reported heart problems following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination (Pfizer Moderna).

According to Dr. Baskies, myocarditis is an unusual side effect but the condition “gets better in the vast majority of people.
The doctor further added:
A spokesperson for CDC pointed out that:
The agency also recommended clinicians look for symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath and palpitation, and to consider myocarditis as a cause, while also ruling out other causes behind heart inflammation.
It added:
Most side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine are mild and shouldn’t last longer than a week. Other side effects may include:
- a sore arm where the needle went in
- feeling tired
- a headache
- feeling achy
- feeling or being sick
