Myocarditis diagnoses skyrocketed among U.S. troops after the COVID-19 vaccine was rolled out, according to a top Defense Department official.

Gilbert Cisneros Jr., undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness, confirmed the annual average of myocarditis cases soared 151%  in 2021 in the wake of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout, Epoch Times reported.

Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

“When reported, the cases have especially been in adolescents and young adult males within several days after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination (Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna),” the CDC’s website states.
