Lots of talk of post-COVID-vaccination myocarditis in newly obtained CDC emails. One hospital reported three cases in two weeks 
Another reporter alerting CDC to three "probable vaccine related case[s] of myopericarditis" in young males
Top CDC officials ordered all questions regarding potential myocarditis cases directed to them.
CDC recruited staffers specifically to examine post-vaccination myocarditis reports
Pediatrician reports one case at hospital, says aware of at least four others. "Post-Pfizer vaccine myocarditis in healthy teens."
Looping in American Academy of Pediatrics. CDC wanted "to centralize our coordination" with a single group rather than dealing with "multiple provider organizations."
CDC official says providers weren't reporting post-vaccination cases of myocarditis to VAERS despite requirement to do so under EUA.
Top CDC vaccine safety officials started looking for experts on myocarditis weeks after U.S. Department of Defense and Israel reported elevated number of cases
Confusion inside CDC on "what is and has been being done" on myocarditis after COVID-19 vaccination in adolescents.
CDC workers directed to conduct "preprocess screening for myocarditis," using protocol already in place for severe allergic shock.
Pediatrician reports "more and more cases or youth who are developing myocarditis and MIS-C-like syndromes within a short time (2-4 days) after the second COVID-19 vaccine."

As @AngryCardio points out, Dr. Newburger is better described as a pediatric cardiologist
Emails were obtained through FOIA and cover a single week, 05/10/2021 to 05/17/2021
As the emails were being sent, the vaccine safety work group for CDC's advisory panel said there were "relatively few reports of myocarditis" after vaccination and that "most cases appear to be mild."
Additionally, rates of post-vaccination myocarditis reports in CDC safety monitoring systems "have not differed from expected baseline rates," or pre-pandemic rates in the population, the panel said. cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/…
Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the CDC director, told a briefing on April 27, 2021, regarding myocarditis that "we have not seen a signal, and we’ve actually looked intentionally for the signal in the over 200 million doses we’ve given." whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
Both U.S. military officials and Israeli officials reported cases of postvaccination myocarditis earlier that month. military.com/daily-news/202…
Leading up to Walensky's press conference remarks, there were internal discussions about myocarditis and pericarditis following messenger RNA vaccination, according to emails obtained by The Epoch Times documentcloud.org/documents/2368…
Most of the discussions are redacted.
Several FOIA requests seeking communications between Walensky and the military in early 2021 were returned with no records being found. A warning by a military official was forwarded to CDC vaccine safety officials in April 2021. theepochtimes.com/exclusive-mili…
That triggered a look in the CDC's Vaccine Safety Datalink, a surveillance system, for post-vaccination myocarditis. Officials found 24 cases within 21 days of a vaccine dose.
A CDC spokesperson has told The Epoch Times: "An association between myocarditis and mRNA COVID-19 vaccination was not known in April 2021. By June 2021, data began to indicate a potential association between mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and myocarditis."
A different CDC spokesperson said: "VAERS has been monitoring for myocarditis since December 2020. A potential association with mRNA COVID-19 vaccination wasn’t apparent until after April 2021. CDC began assembling a team to focus upon reports of myocarditis in May 2021."
The CDC also told us: "At the time of the director’s press conference, CDC did not have sufficient evidence to conclude there was a safety signal for myocarditis following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination."
The CDC received reports of myocarditis after vaccination from medical professionals in May 2021, as the early portions of the thread showed.
Two suspected cases at Children's National in DC, a pediatric cardiologist told the CDC.
CDC hosted a call with multiple sites, including Children's National, about myocarditis after vaccination in adolescents on May 20, 2021.
On May 24, 2021, the CDC ACIP vaccine safety committee acknowledged for the first time that the number of reports of post-vaccination myocarditis to VAERS was higher than expected in those 16-24. cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/…
In a presentation the following month, the CDC presented data showing a much higher number of cases than expected, particularly in males cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/…
“At this point, I think we’re still learning about the rates of myocarditis and pericarditis," Dr. Tom Shimabukuro said while presenting the data to the FDA's advisory panel. theepochtimes.com/nearly-800-rep…
Shimabukuro said in 2022 that evidence "supports a causal association between mRNA COVID-19 vaccination and myocarditis and pericarditis." The CDC says "Data from multiple studies show a rare risk for myocarditis and/or pericarditis following receipt of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines."
While there are claims that most vaccine-induced myocarditis cases are mild, CDC researchers reported in 2022 that among young Americans for whom MRI results were available, most had abnormalities theepochtimes.com/many-vaccinate…
"Any form of heart damage in young persons is concerning since the long-term risks of heart failure and sudden death with exercise are unknown," @P_McCulloughMD has told The Epoch Times. theepochtimes.com/29-percent-of-…
Some of the people, including young persons, who experienced myocarditis after vaccination have died. theepochtimes.com/heart-inflamma…
A recent paper saw researchers start with 35 people who died unexpectedly at home. For five of the people, they said the vaccine-induced myocarditis likely or possibly caused the deaths. theepochtimes.com/health/heart-i…
