Was there anything the Tories didn’t fck up?

Premature heart attacks are also an effect of COVID - cardiac health has been shot with si many people getting infected and reinfected

^^This... we can't say we weren't warned about the damage to organs and the increased likelihood of heart attacks post covid infection. It's not going to be a short-lived effect.

Funny how most the media has gone silent on the totally debilitating impact that COVID has on all organ systems - the ONS also revised their methodology for recording excess deaths to (in my opinion) obfuscate the real impact of repeat and longer term infections.

Systemic vascular disease caused by SARS-Cov-2 (covid) causes a huge increase in adverse cardiovascular events.

Strokes
Myocardial infarction (heart attack)
Etc etc

What ever happened to the common sense view that "prevention is better than cure" under the Conservatives?

Not helped by the fact that catching Covid increases the likelihood of a cardiac problem many times. Catch it repeatedly and it can cause major issues.
