@cardioooo @hyperpandaxpres @_lyoung05 Great points! Few people realize how dangerous ticks and other vectors can be. Failure to wear long pants in risky areas could mean getting Lyme Disease and potentially harming your heart health! #biom4180

@DaniellaGilmour People often talk about "hearts and minds", we gotta take care of both! Not only does stress weaken your immune system, many viruses and infections can weaken the cardiovascular system. #biom4180 #heartdisease #COVID19

@MaryFernando_ So true, a deadly and debilitating virus should not be a political issue, it should be a human one. Not only can COVID-19 be deadly, even if you can recover it can have long lasting effects, including damage to the heart! #biom4180 #COVID19

@tarynkieller That's amazing! Often heart damage is irreparable, and so its hopeful to see that that may not be true in the future of medicine. #biom4180

Heart attacks are often deadly, especially if the person is too far away from a hospital. These researchers propose an interesting project where through the use of a microcontroller, the patient's heart can be monitored, and life-saving drugs can be administered! (1/3)

There is much work to be done to ensure this project is ethical and safe, but the lives that could be saved with technology like this is very impressive. #biom4180 #heartdisease (2/3)

It’s a known fact that #diabetes patients are ↑↑ susceptible to #heart #failure. Several anti-hyperglycemic #therapies have been devised to try and reduce the 🫀#risk but a lot remains to be done.

Covid-19 has impacted nearly every aspect of our lives, especially our social lives. In this study, it was found that social isolation and other stresses may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease!
