> The vaccine is injected into the muscle in your arm. Why would it accumulate in the heart?

Here is an interesting read:

https://www.bhf.org.uk/what-we-do/news-from-the-bhf/news-arc...

"The spike protein binds to cells called pericytes which line the small vessels of the heart. This binding triggers a cascade of changes which disrupt normal cell function, and can lead to the release of chemicals that cause inflammation. This happened even when the protein was no longer attached to the virus... The spike protein can remain in the bloodstream after the virus has gone and travel far from the site of infection."

This article is talking about the spike protein aquired from infection, but I wonder if it is similar from vaccine, since the spike protein is also in the vaccine:

"First, COVID-19 mRNA vaccines are given in the upper arm muscle. The mRNA will enter the muscle cells and instruct the cells' machinery to produce a harmless piece of what is called the spike protein. The spike protein is found on the surface of the virus that causes COVID-19."

The bhf article you linked explicitly states that there is no reason to believe that vaccine spikes behave the same way, and that getting vaccinated is the best way to avoid the spike-caused heart damage.

More specifically, it said:

"This research only looked at the spike protein found on virus cells."

The impression is that, since they did not look at the spike protein from vaccines, then that is the reason there is indeed no evidence of this from vaccines, since there was no study on that. Sounds like there should be a study.
