I learned recently that a relative who is 38 and seemingly healthy had the virus back in February/March. She was a daily 7mile jogger before the virus. Now she has heart damage and doesn’t run.

No one who has a relative with a severe after-effect from Covid would say only, "I have a relative." So tell us: Was it your first-cousin's father-in-law? Your nephew's mother-in-law?

Second question: Do you know that her heart damage is directly due to Covid?

Yeah, didn't think so!

Nah, it does cause heart damage. I got it in January. It felt like my heart muscle was ripping apart when I tried to get out of bed to take a P. It was a real struggle and I was breathing like I was in a road race. I was in hospital for 12 days. During my convalescence I had to learn on my own to take zinc, vitamin E and magnesium supplements to aide the heart healing. It wasn’t until 6 months went by that I could do stuff without a halting heart pain. EKGs are normal. It’s the muscle that’s damaged. I’d compare it to a torn hamstring. It even had the tickling sensation during healing like a hamstring injury.
