Johns Hopkins SoM Professor: Covid vaccine brings higher heart risk, little benefit to young men

Dr. Marty Makary noted a recent study found a 30% increase in heart attack deaths among adults between the ages of 25 & 44 during the pandemic

Newsroom February 17 08:00

Young men face an elevated risk of heart inflammation after getting vaccinated for COVID, a virus that poses very little threat to them in the first place, a top medical expert told The Daily Wire Friday.

Speaking on the “Morning Wire” podcast, Dr. Marty Makary, a professor at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and an oncology surgeon at the school’s affiliated hospital, noted a recent study from Cedars Sinai found a disturbing 30% increase in heart attack deaths among adults between the ages of 25 and 44 during the first two years of the COVID pandemic. One theory holds that the uptick could be the result of COVID itself, while another places blame on the vaccine. Makary said there is evidence for the latter.

“We did not see the uptake before the vaccine was rolled out, but, young people were primarily affected around that same time as well,” he said. “The state of Florida did their own study, looking at heart attacks after the vaccine in particular, and found that there was an 81% increase in sudden death from heart attacks in the months following the vaccine compared to baseline rates. So many people do believe that the vaccine is one of the causes of heart problems in young people.”
