They found that people who caught the virus were overall more likely to suffer complications related to the cardiovascular system - like heart attack, stroke and cardiac arrest - than those who didn't get sick with the disease. This risk persisted over the three years that the doctors monitored the participants.
It also held true even when the doctors accounted for conditions that would make a patient more likely to develop heart disease in the first place, like diabetes or older heart disease diagnoses.
After analyzing the data, doctors found that those who were hospitalized with the virus were four times more likely to develop heart disease than those who never caught the bug.
Her 2022 study found a 30 percent increase in heart attack deaths in people 25 to 44 during the first two years of the pandemic.
In addition, recent data from the National Center for Health Statistics, which show the rate of heart attack in young people increasing by 66 percent, suggesting the pandemic may have played a role a role.
