Abstract

In the context of the coronavirus pandemic, there are unclear long-term prospects for returning to full-fledged competitive sports, employment and well-being of athletes, personnel, and the sports industry, causing considerable tension in society. In this regard, an uncontrolled increase in sports and parasports activity can be expected after the removal of epidemiological restrictions. Under these conditions, preparing the medical community for the return of a full-fledged sports movement, developing measures to monitor the health status of athletes, as well as the interaction of athletes, spectators and maintenance personnel, is of great importance. The aim of the work is to evaluate the information on this topic existing in medical journals, online resources and social networks, and confirmed by the positions of leading experts. Key words: SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19, return to sport, cardiovascular system, myocarditis, respiratory system. For citation: Badtieva V.A., Sharykin A.S., Zelenkova I.E.
