According to a new study, COVID-19 Survivors raises the risk of severe long-term cardiac problems

According to a Science publication, those who had the virus a year before had a higher risk of 20 different heart and vessel problems.

The survey says

The survey, published in the Nature Medicine journal, distinguishes rates of new cardiovascular problems with over 150,000 people infected with the coronavirus before vaccines were available — with 5.6 million people who did not catch the virus and another 5.9 million people whose data were collected from 2017. The analysis, per the researchers, emphasizes the need for a coordinated response to battle a health fallout that could have long-term repercussions. COVID-19 patients had a 63 percent more increased heart attack risk and a 52 percent higher risk of stroke, also a closely three-fold increase in blood clots in the lungs, among a total of 20 cardiovascular issues that increased in frequency an average of a year after infection.

Health Hazards

The health hazards were obvious irrespective of age, rage, sex, or other health factors such as obesity, hypertension, or diabetes. Researchers noted that those increases were also found in people who had no past history of cardiovascular disease before being diagnosed with COVID-19. Those alarming findings, as per the study, could show that health problems can arise in people who have a low risk of cardiovascular disease.
