SARS Covid-19 as an immunothrombotic disease and the potential benefits of a new estrogen-free contraceptive containing drospirenone.
"As Covid-19 is considered an immunothrombotic disease, the potential benefits of estrogen-free contraceptives like drospirenone are discussed. Adding estrogens in contraception may rise the cardiovascular risk in Covid-19 and Long Covid patients."

"Coagulopathy has been recognized as a complication of COVID-19, and the incidence of thrombotic events may be as high as 31% among critically ill patients with the disease.80, 81 There is a concern that hormone therapy may compound this thrombotic risk."

Proteomics of fibrin amyloid microclots in long COVID/post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) shows many entrapped pro-inflammatory molecules that may also contribute to a failed fibrinolytic system - Cardiovascular Diabetology

More evidence that LongCOVID symptoms are due to widespread endothelial damage and a failed fibrinolytic system. We again found numerous entrapped inflammatory molecules; and this time also antibodies in microclots

What Is a DVT?

"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."

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.
