The research study by the AMCH team aims to address concerns and provide clarity on the potential risks associated with the Covid vaccine. By conducting a thorough investigation and gathering valuable data, the team hopes to shed light on the reasons behind the rise in sudden deaths and abnormal health conditions post-vaccination.
Mriganka Shekhar Chaliha, professor and head of the department of cardiology of AMCH, highlighted the growing perception among the public regarding the increase in heart attacks or cardiovascular diseases in recent years.

The research team plans to conduct various tests such as ECG, ECO, HSCRP, and cardiac MRI on both Covid-19 patients and individuals, who have received the Covid vaccine. Participation in the research study will be kept confidential and all tests will be provided free of cost to the participants. Those interested in partaking in the study can contact the team at 9564198958 and 9995818067.
