We're all dealing with COVID fatigue after the virus completely flipped the script on what was normal in the world of sports. But, some good news!
A study from the American Heart Association's journal, Circulation, found college athletes who had COVID-19 see fewer instances of myocarditis than once feared. Myocarditis, you'll recall, is bruising of heart tissue, that led the Big Ten to take a cautious approach to returning to play last season.
Dr. Jonathan Drezner, director of the University of Washington Medicine Center for Sports Cardiology and a co-principal investigator of the study, said the results will help colleges and the NCAA refine cardiac-screening protocols for athletes who have tested positive for COVID-19.
