“SARS-CoV-2 hijacks the clotting system of your body for its own purposes.
The spike protein binds to fibrin, rendering it toxic. Those toxic fibrin proteins damage blood vessel walls and drive an inflammatory response.
Other viruses don't do this.”
“Findings emphasize that Covid-19’s myocardial pathology predominantly arises from fibrin thrombi within the coronary MICROVASCULAR network, especially in the abluminal spaces.
➡️This pathological process leads to myocardial fibre injury, necrosis, and ischemic changes( = fibrosis), contributing to both the acute symptoms and long-term sequelae (Long Covid).”
“Medical images show us that the severe lung disease of #COVID-19 is the opposite of influenza - it occupies a different anatomical compartment in the lungs. All of this means there is no reason to expect that the later phases of COVID-19 should be anything like influenza.”
