POTS: Heart condition in rare cases can be associated with vaccine, but is more often linked to infections of coronavirus itself
POTS can develop in a small number of people who have gotten the COVID vaccine but it happens more often in those infected with the virus itself.With billions of shots given worldwide, COVID-19 vaccines have proven to be safe and effective.
POTS - postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome - can cause rapid heartbeat, dizziness and other nervous system and heart issues. Dr. Alan C. Kwan treats POTS patients at a specialized clinic at Cedars Sinai. He says most patients take at least two years and see multiple doctors before they are properly diagnosed.
The study data suggest the risk of developing POTS after vaccination is less than 5 cases per million doses.
