Blood clots and lung injuries found in patients who have died of COVID-19.

A new post-mortem study of patients who have died from COVID-19 found severe damage to the lungs and signs of blood clotting in major organs.

Ten post-mortem examinations performed on patients with confirmed COVID-19 found that all patients had lung injuries and early scarring of the lungs as a result of the virus, as well as injury to their kidneys. Nine patients also had thrombosis - a blood clot- in at least one major organ (heart, lung or kidney). The team were unable to investigate thrombosis in the tenth patient.

Interesting. This is why I feel mega-vulnerable as my lung disease stemmed from PEs. Really, really don’t want any more.

Why it's not an insignificant infection, however blasé the youngsters feel about it.
