  ABSTRACT: Aim: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is an acute medical, social, political and economic problem. Acute myocarditis is a rare complication of the widely used mRNA-based vaccines. Case Presentation: 20-year old male with no preexisting disease or cardiovascular risk factor presented in October 2021 with chest pain after receiving the second dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine 2 days previously. He discharged from ward care only a few days after his initial presentation. Conclusion: Despite the meta-analysis results suggesting a higher risk of myocarditis with COVID-19 vaccination, vaccination should still be recommended because benefits of the vaccine likely outweigh its harms.
