People get sick. What causes sickness is truly up for debate and questioning the mainstream narrative is always a good idea. 

Most people believe that sickness was from a virus labeled COVID, COVID-19 or C19. Some people believe that this sickness (shortness of breath, pneumonia, death) was from other environmental toxins such as electromagnetic fields (EMF). What some doctors call viruses, others call exosomes produced BY the body. 

Again, questioning the narrative is a fundamental human right. For the purpose of this article, we will use the label COVID, but this label represents a constellation of signs and symptoms, from a virus or other. 

But something was leading to pulmonary, cardiac and other complications. 

The effects on the heart can vary from mild to severe, and in some cases, they can be long-lasting. Here are some ways that COVID can affect the heart:

• Myocardial Injury: COVID can cause direct damage to the heart muscle, leading to a condition known as myocarditis. This is an inflammation of the heart muscle that can weaken the heart’s pumping ability and lead to symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, and abnormal heart rhythms.

• Blood Clot Formation: COVID is associated with an increased risk of blood clot formation, which can affect the blood vessels in the heart and lead to conditions like heart attacks or strokes.

• Arrhythmias: COVID can cause disturbances in the normal electrical activity of the heart, leading to irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias). These arrhythmias can range from mild to severe and might require medical intervention.

• Stress on the Heart: Severe cases of COVID can lead to respiratory distress and low oxygen levels, which put additional stress on the heart as it works harder to pump oxygen-rich blood to the body’s tissues.

• Pre-existing Heart Conditions: Individuals with pre-existing heart conditions, such as hypertension, heart disease, or heart failure, may be at a higher risk of severe complications if they contract COVID.

• Inflammation: The body’s immune response to viruses or toxins can result in systemic inflammation, which might affect the blood vessels and contribute to heart problems.

• Long COVID: Some individuals who have recovered from the acute phase of COVID continue to experience lingering symptoms, often referred to as “long COVID.” Heart-related symptoms, such as chest pain, palpitations, and shortness of breath, have been reported in these cases.
