At the moment, the COVID pandemic seems to have ended. It is undoubtedly good news, but what requires immediate attention is the rise in strokes and heart attacks among COVID-recovered people.
According to some studies, the risk of cardiovascular problems such as heart attack and stroke remains high even after months of recovery from COVID-19.
Researchers discovered that people admitted to intensive care due to COVID are at a higher risk. Even people who were not hospitalized for COVID had a higher risk than their uninfected peers. Neurological complications are on the rise. Facial nerve disorders, also known as facial nerve paralysis, have been on the rising trend. Mucormycosis, a rare fungal infection, has also been widely reported after Covid.
