Heavy snowfalls are traditionally cause for heart attacks in persons not accustomed to exertion, but to the list of the vulnerable we can add those who are recovering from a bout of COVID-19, according to Dr. Robert Cushman, Acting Medical Officer of Health with the RCDHU.
Monday’s snowfall may well be accompanied by an additional dump Wednesday, and, if you’ve had COVID-19, even though snow shovelling is an outdoor, solo activity, it’s something you should avoid, according to Cushman.
