COVID Vaccines Reduce Risk of Heart Failure, Clots
Quick Glance: Benefits of COVID Vaccinations for Heart and Blood Vessels
  • A study conducted by the University of Oxford reveals that COVID-19 vaccinations reduce the risk of heart failure and blood clots.

  • The protection provided lasted up to a year and also decreased the likelihood of heart inflammation and specific types of blood clots.

  • These findings were recently published in the journal Heart, indicating that the protection against heart and blood flow issues through vaccinations outweighs associated risks.

  • Analysis of health data from more than 20 million individuals in the UK, Spain, and Estonia demonstrates that vaccinated individuals have a lower risk of heart failure and blood clots.

Quick Glance: Measles Outbreaks: Lifelong Protection or Need for Booster?
  • The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warns of increasing measles outbreaks in the U.S. and abroad, mostly linked to international travel.

  • The MMR vaccine for measles, mumps, and rubella is highly effective, with two doses proving 97% effective. A single dose already provides 93% protection.

  • The CDC considers you protected from measles if you either received two vaccine doses, received one dose and do not need a booster, or were born before 1957.

  • Once fully vaccinated, no booster shots are required, and the two doses provide lifelong immunity. Individuals unsure of their childhood vaccination status should consult with their healthcare provider.
