About The Study: In this secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial, patients who received at least one COVID-19 vaccine dose after acute coronary syndromes had similar rates of the primary composite end point and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) compared with unvaccinated patients. However, retrospective studies have demonstrated a short-term reduction in MACE risk after COVID-19 vaccination.
