how can one know how often this side effect occurs?

Since covid and the mrna vaccines, we hear a lot about myocarditis, a kind of heart infection that often ends fatally in the short or slightly longer term. I myself didn't even know this disease existed... until covid arrived.
Everyone seems to talk about mild cases, but if I read correctly myocarditis is practically undetectable. With 17 BIOPSIES, there seems to be a 90 percent chance of making the right diagnosis (cfr Professor Marelli-Berg ).
Now a blood test would be on the market, I estimate at the end of 2023 if all goes well. However, it may not yet be known to what extent this test is reliable. My conclusion: if covid and the mRNA vaccines have myocarditis as a side effect, how can one know how often this side effect occurs?

Vaccines don't prevent infection so a person is likely to suffer damage from Covid on top of the vaxx spike damage.
The numbers you mention for vaxx damage (1 case in 9,400 doses) is unacceptable. Not a single youth should have to suffer from a faulty unsafe and ineffective vaxx.

Mild or non mild covid: who will say myocarditis is not a consequence?

Their conclusion: "During March 2020–January 2021, patients with COVID-19 had nearly 16 times the risk for myocarditis compared with patients who did not have COVID-19, and risk varied by sex and age."

These findings suggest an association between COVID-19 and myocarditis, although causality cannot be inferred from observational data...
Myocarditis is uncommon among patients with and without COVID-19
First, the risk estimates from this study reflect the risk for myocarditis among persons who received a diagnosis of COVID-19 during an outpatient or inpatient health care encounter and do not reflect the risk among all persons who had COVID-19. Second, misclassification of COVID-19 and myocarditis is possible because conditions were determined by ICD-10-CM codes, which were not confirmed by clinical data (e.g., laboratory tests or cardiac imaging) and could be improperly coded or coded with a related condition (e.g., pericarditis). Third, encounters for COVID-19, myocarditis, and COVID-19 vaccination occurring outside of hospital systems that contribute to PHD-SR are not included within this data set. Fourth, underlying medical conditions and alternative etiologies for myocarditis (e.g., autoimmune disease) were not ascertained or excluded. Fifth, the obtained measures of association could be biased because of the choice of the comparison group (all patients without COVID-19) and if physicians were more likely to suspect or diagnose myocarditis among patients with COVID-19. Finally, the findings represent a convenience sample of patients from hospitals reporting to PHD-SR and might not be generalizable to the U.S. population.
Here's a myocarditis expert who estimates that the incidence of myocarditis in 2019--before the pandemic--was about 9 cases per 100,000 of population:

So, in round numbers, the probability of getting myocarditis before either Covid or the vaccines were around was about 1 in 11,000.
Getting vaccinated with one of the nRNA vaccines without having Covid produced a maximum probability of getting myocarditis (16 to 17 year old males) of about 106 cases per million vaccinations, or about 1 case in 9,400. (About 18% more than the background rate.)
Getting Covid without being vaccinated produced a probability of getting myocarditis of about 1 in 687, or 16 times the background rate.
