Hi. is omicron and latest variants dangerous to the circulatory system? does it increase the chance of bloodclots and heart issues? and does repeated infection increase risk of bad outcomes. thanks?

Omicron affects all organ systems unpredictably and the outcomes are unpredictable too. Repeat infection is usually due to a variant virus. Older, people with weak immunity and with other illnesses have a greater chance of bad outcomes.

Individual response to infection could be unpredictable, it could affect the circulatory system in various ways, unfortunately it is not just because of the virus but because of the unique response of the individual's immune system. Its effect could include blood clots and heart issues. The repeated infection is also unpredictable, it was worse in some people and milder in some.
