This article provides a review of the results of studies of COVID-19 effects. The effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on the heart mediated by the virus specificity to ACE-2 protein and the relation of COVID-19 to cardiovascular diseases are discussed. The causes of cardiac damage in coronavirus infection related to systemic inflammation, platelet activation, endothelial dysfunction, and vasoconstriction are reviewed. Different opinions on whether myocardial damage with elevated troponin levels is a mediator or marker of adverse outcomes are presented. The analysis also discusses the consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection, such as post-active COVID-19 syndrome for persistent symptoms after three weeks and chronic COVID-19 syndrome after 12 weeks, as well as the relationship between COVID-19 and postural tachycardia syndrome, characterized by changes in HR with changes in position, often accompanied by increased heart rate and decreased exercise tolerance.
