To paraphrase one cardiologist fighting the good fight, "There is no such thing as 'mild myocarditis.' 20% of those young people will be dead in 2 years. 50% of them will die within 5 years."

The very last line is what they REALLY want to tell you: "cases have tended to be mild." There is no such thing as a mild case of myocarditis. Engage in athletic activity while you have it and watch how quickly you drop dead of a heart attack. Someone might also ask the CDC : cases of covid have also tended to be mild, so why should I worry about getting it anymore than myocarditis?
