What I got from that study is that the prognosis for myocarditis is very dependent on the cause and how much damage happens before the cause is removed.

I dismissed it initially due to the website it was on. Then I spent a good half hour digging through their arguments and finding out whether they had any basis in reality. Now I know for sure it has no real merit and I've wasted a decent amount of time on it. For a more extreme example, I'm not going to go through every blog post the KKK puts up just because they used some scientific-sounding arguments to argue that black people are bad.

I get where people are coming from trying to consider all the data, but some sources aren't worth the effort.
