COVID-19 Vaccinations Linked to Reduced Heart Attack and Stroke Risks

Large-scale study of 46 million adults in England shows significant drop in cardiovascular events post-vaccination.

  • Heart attacks and strokes decreased by up to 10% after the first vaccine dose.
  • Reductions of up to 27% for AstraZeneca and 20% for Pfizer were observed after the second dose.
  • The study confirmed the overall cardiovascular safety of COVID-19 vaccines.
  • Rare side effects like myocarditis and blood clots were noted but were outweighed by benefits.
  • Researchers used comprehensive health records from nearly the entire adult population of England.
