Cardiac risks with covid shouldn’t be ignored.

CIDRAP – Report: Cardiac risks must be considered when treating COVID-19 – Stephanie Soucheray, MA  Sept 18, 2025 at 4:10 p.m. A new major report published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology suggests repeat COVID-19 vaccination may be necessary to mitigate the cardiovascular risk associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection.  The authors represent experts from across Europe, and said they authored the report to make concrete recommendations for prevention, rehabilitation, and long-term care for cardiovascular patients because both acute COVID-19 infection and long COVID have serious effects on the heart and blood vessels. “As the initial public health messaging largely focused on pulmonary complications of COVID 19, many people with COVID-19 may not be aware of the increased cardiovascular risks associated to the disease,” the authors wrote.
