Findings from a new study done by researchers at Washington University in St. Louis found that even a mild case of COVID-19 can increase a person's risk of cardiovascular problems for at least a year after diagnosis.
Researchers are studying the long-term effects of COVID-19 on cardiovascular health.
Dr. Evelina Grayver considered herself an athlete. The 42-year-old cardiologist, who spent years working out daily, managed to stay COVID-free until January 2021. But since then, she has had difficulty doing things she normally would. Grayver, the director of Women's Heart Health at Northwell Health, is one of the hundreds of thousands now victims of what's known as long COVID — a syndrome that leaves people with physical or psychological health issues months after they have the virus.
"I saw young people who never had issues with high blood pressure have it despite them doing the right things, eating low-sodium foods, and exercising," Grayver said.
