MVEC’s Myocarditis, pericarditis and COVID-19 vaccines animation has been updated following the most recent changes to the guidance on myocarditis and pericarditis associated with COVID-19 vaccination.   

This update reflects ATAGI’s recent advice which has identified that all of the COVID-19 vaccines available within Australia (including non-mRNA COVID-19 vaccines) carry a small increased risk of myocarditis or pericarditis occurring following vaccination.
