Analysis thread on Twitter: The persistent excess of arterial and venous blood clots after Covid at 1 year compared with controls https://ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.060785 @CircAHA by @jonathanasterne and colleagues

"COVID-19 increases people's risk of dangerous blood clots and bleeding for months after infection, researchers say.
The new findings suggest that COVID-19 is an independent risk factor for deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and bleeding."
Detailed analysis thread on Twitter: COVID-19: Increased risk of dying from infection and sudden death
This a long thread looks at several studies on death and neurovascular injury along with a whole bunch of sudden death examples of relatively young and healthy people found by @MeetJess . 🧵1/
From 2020: "Virtually all children infected with COVID-19 show signs of blood vessel damage, study shows"
From 2020: "Vascular events such as strokes have been reported in COVID-19 patients. It is thought that SARS-CoV-2 causes a thickening of the blood, which leads to blood clots"
1/A reminder that #LongCovid patients have microclots. We are sending children to school with no mitigations and a 5% chance of a disease that damages you blood vessels.🩸 ALL 80 patients tested in this paper had moderate microclots. Green is microclots.
Excited to share our webinar: “COVID-induced Coagulopathy (CAC): The clot thickens…or not?" presented by Dr Mark Walsh, myself and @dbkell , and moderated by @doctorasadkhan It is available at
