SUMMARY - A study from Umea University in Sweden has concluded
that people who have experienced a Covid-19 infection have a
12-fold increase risk of atrial fibrillation, a 5-fold increase
in paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia and a 3-fold increase
in bradyarrhythmias. The risk is higher in the elderly,
unvaccinated persons and people with severe Covid-19 infections.
