I think years from now we're going to have a huge increase of people with cardio issues, as many of the younger people who got the virus but recovered relatively easily will reach the age where these things come up often due to other issues
This is true, and as you already know, these issues include kidney complications as well.

Now that we're about 6 months into this whole pandemic, anyone having any concerns that this will be the new norm going forward in entirety? Will large parties, concerts, major indoor events be stopped entirely for years to come?

I'm truly starting to wonder this due to the fact that any actual vaccine will have its issues with public buy-in. We already have a major anti-vax movement in the Western world, and given the otherwise shortened development span of the vaccine, what happens when people decide not to get treated?

We will never be able to achieve herd immunity unless the majority of people get the vaccine. I think this will be a major barrier that I fear some people aren't thinking about here.
