Heart problems surge in COVID patients up to 12 months after infection
https://newatlas.com ^ | February 08, 2022 | By Rich Haridy

Researchers tracked more than 100,000 COVID-19 patients for up to a year

A massive analysis of health records has revealed recovered COVID-19 patients are at a significantly higher risk of cardiovascular complications in the year following an acute infection. The new findings, published in Nature Medicine, showed COVID-19 survivors were 55 percent more likely to experience a serious cardiovascular event after recovering.

“We wanted to build upon our past research on COVID’s long-term effects by taking a closer look at what’s happening in people’s hearts,” explained Ziyad Al-Aly, senior author on the new study from Washington University. “What we’re seeing isn’t good. COVID-19 can lead to serious cardiovascular complications and death. The heart does not regenerate or easily mend after heart damage. These are diseases that will affect people for a lifetime.”

The researchers looked at medical records from the US Department of Veteran Affairs, analyzing around 150,000 positive COVID-19 cases. Cardiovascular outcomes in the 12 months after acute disease were compared to two large control groups of more than five million patients.

In a period starting 30 days after initial infection, and up to a year later, COVID patients were 72 percent more likely to experience coronary artery disease compared to those without SARS-CoV-2 infection. They were also 52 percent more likely to have a stroke and 63 percent more likely to suffer a heart attack.

These include cerebrovascular disorders, dysrhythmias, ischemic and non-ischemic heart disease, pericarditis, myocarditis, heart failure and thromboembolic disease. pic.twitter.com/j2xPy4IrAm

Sounds suspiciously like vax side effects. This data is garbage unless they tell us their vax status.

OK, I did a quick scan of the Nature article and it looks like - I am definitely not an expert - whether the cohort was vaccinated or not - and when the vaccinations took place (before or after the covid infection) is not included in the set of variables.

Should have been a short step to do that if they were going to the trouble of doing the other analysis. The study appears to be the “science” equivalent of a “modified limited hangout”.

Or, by the omission, and in order to preserve funding, plausible deniability of their to the powers that be, etc. they made the omission glaringly obvious if a rube like me could see it.

So many possibilities.

Both the covid infection and the covid vaxx seem to cause the same problems.

In m case the vaxx was actually worse because it settled in a bone/metal interface where it festered before being diagnosed and controlled with ivermectin. Plus I have all the rest of the organ and neurological damages.

How much of this could have been preventing by giving patients large doses of IV Vitamin C? I may be off base here but I would not be surprised if this increase was due to inflammation associated with the virus. Another probability is the virus’ effect on insulin release. Just a thought.

Thank you very much. This obviously would make the results utterly worthless at this point in the analysis. Without that information, it's possible that close to 100% of those with heart issues were vaccinated. Or not. Being unable to know makes the information useless, to anyone other than those who preclude the possibility that the injections can cause heart issues, which even the CDC is admitting at this point. Again stating the obvious, to most, but mostly for those still stuck in denial. Thanks.

btw Nature Health is the discredited rag that published an article that the virus did not come from a lab leak.

turns out the authors were recipients of a Fauci grant, ie paid hacks

How much has to do with the side effects of the vaccines?

If they are not cross-checking that with vaccine injuries, they are fools.

An Israeli study released this week shows a 133% increased risk of myocarditis after vaccination.

Since the majority of sheep in the world have taken the shot, they are easily able to obfuscate the results to covid veterans.

Dr. Roger Seheult was reporting on circulatory, clotting, and heart problems around April 2020. He went so far as to call it a cardiac and vascular disease, not a respiratory disease.

By summer and fall of 2020, research papers were appearing on this. Here are a couple…

I had Covid before the vaxx came out. I steadily recovered. No heart issues except the usual with a quad bypass which the docs gave me to improve blood flow to Covid-damaged organs. Then 18 months later I got vaxxed and developed Pericarditis that week.

So there’s that.

OK, but how many of these patients received one or more doses of a vaccine in addition to catching the virus?

And this is from the VA - what is the median age?

“ Then 18 months later I got vaxxed and developed Pericarditis that week.”

That sucks you got that. Hopefully have recovered.
It seems there is much to learn yet.
I have read accounts of this happening both from vaccinated people and unvaccinated .
There is clear evidence the vaccines are causing some it but also clear evidence that Covid itself is causing it.

Either way these issues were not happening before China created this virus.
That’s what we need to focus on.
And also keep learning more about the vaccines and side effects .

I’m also curious why low dose aspirin isn’t being recommended as a possible safety measure for these issues ?

I did a word search in the article for the term vaccination, and found it only two times, and neither times was it related to how many of these people with heart issues after contracting Covid, had gotten the shots. It also doesn’t mention one thing about the inflammation and damage done to the heart by the shots.
