Virus is not a vaccine
Is the Covid Vaccine a cause of increasing cases of heart attack? In response to this question, Dr. Upendra, Dean of Cardiology Department of Batra Hospital and Research Center, said that the vaccine has nothing to do with the heart attack. On the contrary, the vaccine has saved the lives of millions of people. Kovid infection has definitely affected the heart in some cases. Upendra said that after the Kovid infection, some patients saw problems related to swelling or heart rate, which is a cause of heart attack, although the major reason for the growth of heart diseases is poor catering and impaired lifestyle.
How to avoid heart diseases
Dr. Upendra said that there is a need to pay attention to the risk factor of increasing heart diseases. Like people should keep their cholesterol under control. BP and sugar should also be maintained. High BP is a major cause of heart attack. Also it is important that do not consume tobacco and exercise daily. If there are any symptoms such as sharp chest pain, sudden sweating and breathlessness, then go to the hospital immediately.
