Your monitor seemed to demonstrate only mild atrial irritability with just one 4 beat run. I assume there were predominantly single atrial premature beats mostly. In the absence of EKG abnormalities I doubt significant cardiac involvement by the covid infection. Stress & overactive thyroid may cause atrial irritability, but you should avoid excess intake of caffeine & alcohol. ?See Cardiologist

Only time will tell. Discuss with your local Drs who have experience in folks like you taking all the meds you may be taking.
