Covid survivors are at a 63 per cent increased risk of having heart attack within a year — regardless of their age or how ill they were, a major study suggests.

American researchers looked at medical reports of more than 150,000 infected people and compared them to a control group of 11.5million who had not tested positive.

The risk of heart failure, heart disease and strokes was 'noticeably' higher in the 12 months after catching the virus.

Overall, those who had beat Covid were 55 per cent more likely to suffer a heart complication compared to the uninfected.

The Washington University researchers fear Covid will lead to millions more heart problems in the coming years.

They estimate the virus has already triggered 15million extra cardiovascular cases worldwide.

During an infection, the virus attacks the body's cells, which can cause damage to heart tissue and the immune system, which the researchers suspect triggers heart problems.

The study, published in Nature Medicine, shows heart problems were even spotted among people who had a mild infection and were previously healthy. Dr Ziyad Al-Aly, senior author and director of clinical epidemiology at the university, said: 'What we're seeing isn't good.

'Covid 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.'

He warned countries should be ready to deal with a sharp rise in the burden from heart problems.

Heart problems have been reported among people while unwell with the virus, but the researchers said their findings show this risk 'extends well beyond' the acute infection.

its not the vaxx folks its covid causing heart problems

bullshit
