The Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare announced males under 30 would be offered the Pfizer vaccine instead, after studies found younger males were at a slightly higher risk of developing heart issues with Moderna.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAn increased risk of side effects such as inflammation of the heart muscle or the pericardium [the double-walled sac containing the heart and the roots of the main vessels]. The risk of being affected is very small,\u201d said Sweden\u2019s Public Health Agency.<\/p>\n<p>All four countries based their decision on an unpublished study with Sweden\u2019s Public Health Agency and although the study suggests risks of being affected are small, the Nordic countries have encouraged using other vaccines for now.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Iceland\ud83c\uddee\ud83c\uddf8: Suspended use of Moderna in all age groups.<\/p>\n<p>Sweden\ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\uddea: Suspended use of Moderna in people under 30.<\/p>\n<p>Finland\ud83c\uddeb\ud83c\uddee: Stopped use of Moderna in people under 30.<\/p>\n<p>Norway\ud83c\uddf3\ud83c\uddf4: Is recommending against use of Moderna in those under 18.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 PeterSweden (@PeterSweden7) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PeterSweden7\/status\/1446867912313262081?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 9, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/mayor-de-blasio-considers-covid-19-mandate-for-nyc-first-responders\/\">Mayor De Blasio Considers COVID-19 Mandate For NYC First Responders<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LAHTI, FINLAND \u2013 FEBRUARY 25: A Finland flag is waved as the skiers compete in the Men\u2019s Cross Country Skiathlon during the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships on February 25, &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-862597","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/862597","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=862597"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/862597\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=862597"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=862597"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=862597"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
