Vaccines to the rescue!



Have you ever wondered how vaccines became heroes of public health?

Every year, they save between 3.4 and 5 million lives worldwide.

That's a lot of people, right? By getting vaccinated, you give your immune system a boost, helping to reduce the risk of contracting preventable diseases.

Now, recent research from three British universities offers us another reason to smile: COVID-19 vaccines not only fight the virus but also act as a protective shield against heart problems.

Why do you need a doctor to monitor your heart?



The numbers don't lie



The research, published in the journal Nature Communications, analyzed data from approximately 46 million people in England.

Can you imagine how many coffees were needed to study all that? The results are surprising.

After vaccination, the incidence of heart attacks and strokes (CVA) decreased. The first dose showed a 10% reduction in these incidents in the following 24 weeks.

But wait! After the second dose, things got even better: up to 27% less with AstraZeneca and 20% less with Pfizer/BioNTech.

Now that is good news!


A positive balance



Researchers did not only focus on heart attacks and strokes; they also examined venous thrombotic episodes, such as pulmonary embolism

The findings were clear: vaccination protects against various health complications.

Of course, there were mentions of rare side effects, such as myocarditis or thrombocytopenia, but scientists confirmed that the benefits far outweigh the risks.

So, the next time you hear about those fears, remember that most people only experience the positive side of vaccination.


Trust and Hope



The professor Nicholas Mills and Dr. Steven Liu, co-authors of the study, emphasize the importance of these findings. Vaccination not only prevents COVID-19 but also reduces the risk of cardiovascular complications.

And what if this helps more people get vaccinated? The idea is that these results increase public confidence in vaccines, dispelling any lingering fears.

Dr. Venexia Walker, the lead co-author, highlights the importance of continuing research. With data from the entire population, they can study different combinations of vaccines and their cardiovascular complications.

So the future of vaccine research looks bright!

So, the next time you hear about vaccines, remember: they are more than just a shot in the arm. They are a protective shield that, in addition to fighting COVID-19, protects the heart.

Cheers to that!
