As a pastime, I read a lot of scientific research papers and there is certainly no shortage of new, innovative studies on Covid-19. But I had finally decided to take a break after reading a German paper about the outcomes of investigations into cardiac injuries using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on the heart tissues of people who have survived Covid-19. That is because the new German paper supports strongly an earlier paper from Wuhan, China, also using MRI to study myocardial injury in recovered Covid-19 victims.
If you are curious, the German paper ‘Outcomes of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients Recently Recovered From COVID-19’ found 78% of people with initial cardiac conditions who survived Covid-19 ended up with abnormal MRI scan results, indicating either permanent or long-term damage to the cardiovascular system, primarily the heart.
