The clotting issues of the coronavirus continue to become more clear. A Dutch study reports that 50% of ICU COVID patients have blood clots in their lungs or brain, leading to infarctions and aneurysms.

There have been reports of patients being released from hospital with a clean bill of health, only to die of a heart attack.

The very first known patient in the US herself died of a 'burst' heart which imploded as blood pooled around it.

In light of this, those scary videos from China and Iran of people collapsing in the street make sense.

There is a lot more going on with this virus and how it affects blood than we at first realised, and this is likely a strong cause of mortality for this virus rather than ARDS of the lungs per se.

Anticoagulant drugs such as Warfarin, etc may be a lifesaver in treating COVID and should now be included as part of a standard treatment regimen. Antiplatelet drugs which reduce the likelihood of clotting (aspirin, etc) might also be helpful.

Seems like it is organised voting to milk the system with practically no engagement. The account has not commented in a month. I DV'd to adjust the rewards a little.

Me too mate. It nothing else, it makes them aware that people know what's going on. Not that they care of course.
