COVID19: You Gotta Have Heart to Survive

We hear about Covid19 every day, yet, like moths to a flame, we are drawn back for more. Today's guest, Celina Nadelman, M.D., helps us protect ourselves by shedding light on a new aspect of the disease. Though most attention has been focused on the lungs, she's discovered that it's the cardiovascular system that plays a crucial role. As a cytopathologist and fine needle aspiration specialist, she explains how taking care of the lining of our blood vessels can solve the mystery of why Covid patients suffer from lack of oxygen even when they're on ventilators. Her advice can help you be less vulnerable to Covid and to solve the problem that causes this lack of oxygen. Like with so many families, Dr. Nadelman suffered a loss of her own during the pandemic. Her father died from pneumonia. Though not directly caused by the coronavirus itself, the loneliness imposed by Covid restrictions, preventing families from visiting their loved ones in nursing homes, contributed heavily to his death.
