Summary

Even mild COVID-19 infections may accelerate arterial aging, particularly in women, by stiffening blood vessels. A recent international study suggests that COVID can age blood vessels by approximately five years, potentially increasing long-term risks of heart attacks and strokes. This vascular aging effect underscores the need for continued monitoring and preventative measures in individuals who have recovered from COVID-19, especially women, to mitigate potential cardiovascular consequences. Further research is needed to understand the long-term implications and develop targeted interventions.
