The reporting

What the Evidence Shows

What is established

The CDC released 148 redacted pages in response to a Freedom of Information Act request.

The released pages were not a study; they consisted of intra-agency or interagency communications.

Context and caveats

The CDC website linked to 10 studies about myocarditis after vaccination, but those studies were distinct from the 148 redacted pages.
