Russia (bbabo.net), - After suffering a coronavirus infection, about half of people develop problems with the cardiovascular system. As a rule, this occurs 3-7 months after recovery.

Such statistics were given by the Minister of Health of Russia Mikhail Murashko on the air of the Russia 24 TV channel. According to him, in people who already have chronic cardiovascular diseases, in case of infection with coronavirus, the risk of increased mortality increases up to 5-7 times.

“Patients who complain about the heart when they feel interruptions, heaviness, increased fatigue, decreased exercise tolerance, they just need to seek medical help,” Murashko emphasized. He urged to pay attention to any rhythm disturbances and complications associated with thrombus formation, and in the presence of persistent symptoms, contact a specialist without delay.

Murashko also stressed that severe complications of a different nature overtake pregnant women, and there are risks of complications for newborns. In this case, complications can be caused by any strain, including "omicron". In this regard, vaccination against coronavirus remains relevant, which is allowed after the 22nd week of pregnancy.
