ICMR-NIE has studied this
According to the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), to understand the reasons for the heart attack, the ICMR-National Institute of Epidemiological (ICMR-NIE) has conducted a study in 25 hospitals across the country.
Study between October 2021 and January 2023

Patients aged 18 to 45 years involved
AMI is usually called a heart attack. This condition arises when the blood flow in one part of the heart muscle decreases significantly or is completely blocked. The monitoring group included patients between the ages of 18 to 45 years, who were admitted to the same hospital for other reasons.
Kovid vaccination does not have the risk of AMI
Sharing the major findings of the study (not yet published), Nadda said that hospitalization with AMI was already associated with family history and smoking of blood clots in the blood vessel. He said that vaccination against Kovid-19 had no effect on the risk of AMI.
