CLEVELAND — More than 40 percent of Americans suffered some kind of heart-related issue during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a new survey by the Cleveland Clinic.
It has been nearly two years since the first cases of COVID-19 were discovered in the U.S. Since then, 41 percent of Americans experienced at least one heart-related issue, the survey found. The most common issues were shortness of breath, dizziness, higher blood pressure and chest pain.
“COVID-19 fatigue is a very real thing — and for this year’s survey we wanted to see what kind of effect the ongoing pandemic is having on Americans’ heart health and in particular their healthy habits,” said Dr. Samir Kapadia, chairman of Cardiovascular Medicine at Cleveland Clinic. “We know 90 percent of heart disease is preventable through a healthier diet, regular exercise, and not smoking, so now is the time to refocus on our heart health.”
More than 1 in 4 Americans who were diagnosed with COVID-19 also reported suffering a heart-related issue during their illness, the survey found.
Unhealthy Habits On The Rise
Many Americans are now reporting they live a lifestyle that’s less healthy than before the pandemic. More Americans sit throughout the day, and recreational walking has declined, the survey found.

Nearly 75 percent of Americans reported that they sit for most of the day, and only 36 percent of Americans said they go for a walk daily, down from 40 percent in 2019.
Approximately half of all Americans are not following a specific diet plan.
In addition to sitting more and eating carelessly, nearly 65 percent of Americans reported feeling more stressed since the start of the pandemic. The stress and anxiety were the result of concern for loved ones and disconnection from friends and family, the survey found.
The Cleveland Clinic recommended refocusing on healthier eating habits and finding a safe way to start walking or exercising regularly again.
