My 15 year old son has been diagnosed with Premature Atrial Contractions. He saw a cardiologist and was cleared as safe to play sports as he's a very active kid. His PAC actually disappeared during a stress test. Cardiologist said his heart actually functions better during exercise.

With this condition what is his greatest risk exposing him to the vaccine or taking our chances with natural exposure to the Covid?

Is he at a higher risk of complications from either of the above due to his PAC?

After speaking with his pediatrician, I'd like to know the opinion of the docs on here.

I've done extensive searches on the internet and really can't find much info.

Thank you!

Your son will not have a complicated outcome if he gets the vaccine or if he gets COVID-19, as a result of PACs/PVCs. His course will be the same as if he didn't have them. I would still recommend your son get vaccinated.
