Heart attacks in American young people under 44 years of age have surged an “alarming” 66% since 2020, with experts blaming a sharp rise in myocarditis (heart inflammation) during the pandemic. The Mail has the story.
Heart attacks were once thought of as a disease of age – but worrying new data shows they are increasing in healthy young adults.
Roughly 0.3% of Americans aged 18-44 had a heart attack in 2019 – but last year that rose to 0.5%, or one in 200.
