“Covid is not just a respiratory virus” “it infects coronary artery plaques” "I can't think of another virus that stimulates the sequence of events in coronary artery inflammation like we're seeing here." “Drs/pts need to be aware if CVS risk after Sars2” medscape.com/viewarticle/99…
2/ A recent study showed 5% ⬆️ CVS Death 2020-2022” “Those peaks of ❤️deaths corresponded with specific waves of COVID ― So, there's no question that this virus is contributing to excess ❤️mortality” 5%⬆️ across whole world = A LOT OF DEATHS (not currently being attr to Sars2)
3/ As I’ve been publicly stating for sometime, this is likely only tip of the iceberg we are seeing so far given the latent period between Sars2 infection, endothelial damage and atherosclerosis progression….3/
"We also found that the virus persists in these foam cells that could be responsible for long-term, low-grade inflammation in the vasculature that could contribute to the long-term cardiovascular manifestations in patients who have recovered from COVID," she said. ….4/
Again these researchers point out concerns we’ve been raising for two years….This may be happening in Covid “recovered” patients silently so Long Covid are “the canaries in the coal mine” - and everyone may be at risk 5/
6/…like with everything in medicine, some may be more at risk than others, but until we start screening people for endothelial damage after Covid we won’t know who is it highest risk…
7/ "COVID hasn't gone away. The numbers have been going up again steadily in the US in the last few months. There are still a significant number of hospitalizations," he said…
8/ what we do know is that 1) Covid isn’t done with us - not by a long shot 2) getting repeatedly infected with SARs2 isn’t good for us and 3) SARS2 IS NOT a harmless “cold” even if acute infection feels mild…& the Science states anyone telling us otherwise is wrong//END
