It is known that coronavirus infection can cause irreversible processes in the bodies of some people.. This infection can affect not only the respiratory system, the brain, but also the heart..

The American Journal of Preventive Cardiology published the results of an analytical work, which reported that among patients who have undergone COVID and have genetically high cholesterol levels, the risk of developing a heart attack increases several times..

Scientists have previously warned of the possibility of complications in people infected with the new coronavirus who had high blood cholesterol levels..

People with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and people with COVID-19 are more likely to develop heart attacks, according to a study by the FH Foundation's National Health Database..

Kelly Myers, the author of the project, believes that these data should be taken into account when treating coronavirus infection and taking preventive measures in patients with hypercholesterolemia, as well as when deciding whether to vaccinate them..
