According to Sky News in July 2022, “We found direct evidence that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is toxic to heart muscle cells,” explained Dr Lin. But the researchers caution that the mechanisms they detected for how the virus causes damage may not be the entire picture – and that there are more questions to be answered”.
The article continues, “Research published in 2020 discovered abnormal changes to the way the heart was pumping in 55% of hospitalised patients, with around one in seven showing evidence of severe dysfunction.
“It’s already known from the clinical side that COVID-19 infection can induce heart injury, however, what we don’t know is the mechanistic details of how this occurs,” said Dr Zhiqiang Lin.
“What we suspect is that the spike protein has unknown pathological roles,” added Dr Lin, the study’s lead author and an assistant professor at the Masonic Medical Research Institute in Utica, New York”.
