Pretorius had become one of the first in the world to discover that COVID-19 could induce widespread clotting in the blood of patients.”

COVID-19 Demonstrates That Inflammation Is a Hyperviscous State "complications of COVID-19 are caused by blood hyperviscosity driven by marked hyperfibrinogenemia. This results in a distinctive hyperviscosity syndrome...A change in blood viscosity causes a threefold inverse change in blood flow..."
From 2020: "COVID-19 can be considered a vascular disease with regards to serious complications and causes of mortality...blood clots have emerged as the common factor unifying many of the symptoms initially attributed without an explanation to COVID-19."
