| People (like me) who already take blood thinners ought to be in relatively good shape if they contract the virus too. As I guess we all know by now, COVID does much/most of its damage through microcoagulation throughout the body. Thus, people diagnosed with COVID are immediately started on blood thinners if not already taking them. (From this article, I wonder if the coagulation is blood and/or lipids, though.)

Yes, blood clots throughout the body (not only the lungs). |
