Hi there, I’m a cardiologist that does cardiac ultrasounds.
I was today years old when I discovered that an ultrasound can pick up electrical activity.
FWIW, "fetal heartbeat" is a misnomer. The ultrasound picks up electrical activity generated by an embryo. The so-called "heartbeat" sound you hear is created by the ultrasound. Not until 10 weeks can the opening and closing of cardiac valves be detected by a Doppler machine. ...

Cardiologist here 🙋🏽♂️. There is no evidence in the living of a persistent infection in the heart by the virus that causes COVID-19.
The virus that causes COVID-19 can establish a persistent infection throughout the body, including the heart and brain.
It’s utterly reckless to give up trying to control COVID-19 when there’s so much more we can do - especially with ventilation, better masks, and rapid testing.
