Was prepared to rage on this based on the opening statement, but yes, that is in line with previous studies showing ~20% of recovered hospitalized patients (may be worse in kids, but numbers are too small to be reliable just yet) have compromised cardiac function due to covid myocarditis. “Long term” is very relative in a disease that is only 9 months old, but it is certaily concerning when it appears that we (USA) have gone for the “herd immunity” model.
