“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.”
Latest paper from Dr Robin Kerr & me: #LongCovid is primarily a Spike protein Induced Thrombotic Vasculitis https://researchsquare.com/article/rs-2939263/v1 Here we proposed that long covid is primarily a spike protein-induced thrombotic vasculitis, & we use Robin as a supporting case study 🧵 #TeamClots
