I've been hearing allegations about the vaccine being linked to myocarditis? Can someone explain what's going on here?

The vaccine gives young men mostly but others as well myocarditis. Still at a way lower rate than covid though, that causes myocarditis as well. Myocarditis isn't even that dangerous.

really? but doesn't myocarditis affect the heart, which is one of the most important organs, and doesn't the inflammation negatively affect its ability to pump blood?
