Seniors at risk as COVID-19 hospitalizations rise
Coronavirus-related hospital admissions are climbing again in the United States, with older adults a growing share of U.S. deaths and less than half of nursing home residents up to date on COVID-19 vaccinations.
These alarming signs portend a difficult winter for seniors, which worries 81-year-old nursing home resident Bartley O'Hara, who said he is “vaccinated up to the eyeballs” and tracks coronavirus hospital trends as they "zoom up” for older adults, but remain flat for younger folks.
Rapid Heartbeat Condition 5 Times More Likely With
COVID Than With COVID Vaccine
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a nervous system-related condition that causes a rapid increase in the heartbeat of more than 30 beats per minute, or a heart rate that exceeds 120 beats per minute, within 10 minutes of standing. Some experience fainting, dizziness, fatigue, migraine, increased urination, sweaty extremities, anxiety and tremor.
While vaccination posed some level of risk, people diagnosed with COVID-19 were five times more likely to develop POTS than after vaccination.
