Myocardial infarction post COVID-19 vaccine - coincidence, Kounis syndrome or other explanation - time will tell.

TLDR
A case of ST elevation myocardial infarction reported post Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine was reported in this paper, however, it is premature to draw a link between COVID-2019 vaccine and myocardia.
