If you prefer conspiracy theories, don't open these links:

COVID-19 can have an atypical presentation with non-respiratory symptoms. Recognition of an atypical symptom of COVID-19 allows for early isolation and limits the spread.
https://casereports.bmj.com/content/13/8/e237617https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8789202/There are very rare cases of pericarditis and myocarditis caused by vaccines. However, Myocarditis and pericarditis occur in the general population from a variety of causes. Not all cases that occur after vaccination are caused by the vaccine.
Myocarditis and pericarditis can also be caused by COVID-19.The vaccine related condition is usually mild, and more often found in younger people (mostly males) under 40.
One of my colleagues who was a super fit athlete at 66 years old, contracted pericarditis after a mild Covid infection (he tested positive for one day only). He had not been vaccinated. He bounced back quickly because of his good general health, but told me he was frustrated at suddenly having to take medications for the first time in his life.
Thank you for bringing a little sanity into this thread John. And of course, yes, we
should be very wary of any
alleged clinical claims in those conspiracy-type videos
the OP has posted.
That there is NO evidence even of what exactly these unnamed conspirators are
talking about, and/or showing makes the entire presentation on Telegram(!) suspect.
The whole thing can safely be ignored as total bullshit.
