[COVID-19] The UNTOLD Health Scare

Though COVID-19 is showing signs of slowing down here in the U.S., one thing is still for certain when it comes to the virus…
It’s going to be a part of all our lives for the foreseeable future!
And while we’re all doing our part to stay safe, adapt to, and live with COVID-19, it doesn’t mean that the pandemic didn’t do a number on the health and well-being of millions of Americans…
Even for folks that DIDN’T catch the virus!
That’s because a new study has found that the COVID-19 pandemic caused millions of otherwise healthy Americans to have a major health scare.
According to a major research study conducted by the Cleveland Clinic, a jaw-dropping 40% of Americans have experienced at least ONE heart-related issue since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
When’s the last time 40% of Americans seemed to have anything in common?!
Now, we’re not exclusively talking about major heart issues like a heart attack… most issues reported were…
- Shortness of breath (18%)
- Dizziness (15%)
- Increased blood pressure (15%)
- Chest pain (13%)
And while COVID did increase stress levels for many folks, that’s not what caused this uptick in heart-related issues.
According to the study, people were sitting more and walking less – and that lack of activity is a recipe for disaster when it comes to heart health!

That’s a downright scary – and frankly not talked about – outcome of COVID-19.
Now, many of these heart-related issues can be addressed through regular check-ups with your doctor or cardiologist.
But, here’s the problem…
Studies have found that upwards of 33% of seniors flat-out SKIPPED routine medical appointments during COVID!
And while it’s understandable that many folks decided to hold off on going to the doctor because of COVID, it also means that millions of older Americans neglected routine check-ups and exams that could have identified health issues – including heart-related issues!
It’s still important to maintain and keep your routine medical appointments – especially as COVID appears to be slowing down.
Talk to your doctor about doing virtual visits if you’re still hesitant about going in-person. Most practices offer this service.
Many doctors and practices also have taken extreme precautions to ensure their offices, exam rooms, and facilities are as safe and clean as possible… making an in-person appointment safe and realistic.
