Scientists have found that any ill-willed Covid-19 even in a mild form is subsequently exposed to increased risk of heart problems and even death. And the greatest risk of heart disease and death falls on the first 30 days after infection with the virus. A study of this is published in the journal Heart.
For the study of the University of London, Queen Mary, more than 50 thousand people were used, 17,871 of them were diagnosed with coronavirus.
According to data, the risk of developing venous thromboembolism (VTE) is 27 times higher than those who have never been infected with coronavirus. Those who did not need hospitalization have three times more chances to develop VTE than those who have never had a virus.
The study showed that hospitalized with COVID-19 has 21 times more chances to acquire heart failure and 17 times more chances to get stroke. They also more often diagnose atrial fibrillation, pericarditis and heart attack.
“The long-term consequences of the exposure of coronavirus are the main problem for public health care. Our results have revealed an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases in people who were infected with coronavirus in the past. As expected, it will be higher in countries with limited access to vaccines and, ,is Consequently, with greater exposure to the population of the coronavirus, ”scientists said.
