“Studies haven’t shown that…” Ex-AIIMS Doctor debunks claims linking COVID Vaccine to heart

ANI

New Delhi, July 3, 2025: Former Director AIIMS Delhi, Dr Randeep Guleria stated that is no study to establish a positive correlation between Covid-19 vaccine and sudden Heart attacks. He cited an ICMR study which clearly state a negative correlation between the two. Dr. Guleria said, "There are reports of young people dying because of sudden cardiac arrests. There have been studies to look into this cause. If you look at studies from ICMR and AIIMS, they have clearly shown that these young deaths are not related to COVID-19 vaccines. COVID-19 vaccines do have some side effects, all vaccines/drugs have some side effects, but the link between COVID-19 vaccination and heart attacks is not there. None of the studies have shown that..."

00:00COVID-19 has two issues.

00:02One is the vaccine and the one is the disease.

00:04If we talk about the vaccine,

00:06then the vaccine follow-up

00:08of the government of India,

00:10the ICMR, the NCDC

00:12has also done it when the vaccine

00:13rolled out.

00:15And the vaccines were found to be safe.

00:18Vaccines were very safe.

00:20There was a committee

00:21that saw the adverse effects

00:23following immunization, EIFI,

00:25and they saw that the side effects

00:28are very minimal.

00:28And there was no major side effects

00:32of the vaccine.

00:33Today, it is important that

00:35the vaccine has been

00:36sudden death and heart attacks.

00:39There is no data about this.

00:42The ICMR has a study

00:43where the vaccine has put on it.

00:45It has been explored

00:45and the young age of sudden death

00:48has been tried to make

00:49a correlation.

00:51So, it has been seen

00:52that the vaccine has put on it.

00:54There is no correlation there.

00:57AIMS, New Delhi

00:59study of young people

01:01who tried to get a sudden death

01:02who tried to get a heart attack.

01:06He also had no correlation

01:08with COVID-19 vaccine

01:09with no correlation.

01:11If I tell you about my personal experience

01:13to say, we saw it from COVID

01:14before we saw it

01:16that young people

01:18have a heart attack.

01:19This means that

01:21the Indians have a heart problem

01:23from 10 years ago.

01:24And that is related to genes

01:27it is related to our lifestyle.

01:29Our lifestyle in the past 15-20 years

01:31has changed a lot.

01:32Our diet has improved,

01:33our diet has altered,

01:35our fat and obesity has increased.

01:38And along with our physical activity

01:40has reduced.

01:42So all the problems of heart

01:44are increased

01:45and in younger age

01:46they are seen more in the younger age.

01:48So this is why

01:49there is no correlation

01:50with vaccines.
