I mentioned the vaccine, and you're talking about COVID-19, which is not what I was talking about.

> Vaccines work by stimulating one's immune system response in ways similar to infection

Wrong. This is not how the MRNA vaccine works. The only thing that the MRNA vaccines produce is the spike protein, and it's bound with an additional part so that even the spike protein can't be active. It doesn't deliver the same immune response as it does from a COVID 19 infection at all.

All of which doesn't answer the question why are 12-17 year olds suffering a 1 in 5000 chance of getting myocarditis from the vaccine?

Myocarditis was only found to be slightly higher in 12-17 year olds with the moderna vaccine. The Pfizer and others did not. Presumably because Pfizer is a lower dose. But of course, this is all moot because myocarditis is usually mild and does not require hospitalization and there are myriad of other symptoms that you can get from COVID. Its not as if myocarditis is the only negative side effect of catching COVID.
