Study shows less than 1% of pro athletes infected by COVID-19 also developed inflammatory heart disease.
Five of 789 professional athletes infected with COVID-19 were later found to have suffered inflammatory heart disease in the largest study to date on the cardiac impact of the virus in sports.
In data published Thursday in JAMA Cardiology, doctors affiliated with six U.S.-based leagues followed the 789 infected players last year between May and October.
The study results appear to be good news for athletes who had COVID-19, said co-author Dr. Jonathan Kim, a sports cardiologist at Emory University in Atlanta who also works as a team cardiologist for the Atlanta Falcons.
Results of the two other forthcoming studies on the possible COVID-cardiac link are expected to be published soon, pending peer review.
Yes, it may be "early", but based on these studies and the lack of a single case of death or disability directly related to COVID-19 infection by D-1 NCAA FB, I would say "YES"...
No one should be surprised at how bad the H-12 Leadership & Decision Makers are, and have been!
