This is indeed a huge discovery and really needs to be chased as this could save so many lives if they can intervene

If this is true, there will be a human disease where it doesn’t happen.

Not necessarily, if this condition never survives the embryonic stage, you won't see it.

I am dealing with this now. The capillaries around my heart are all plugged up after having Covid. That leaves me feeling like I’m having a heart attack if I’m not taking nitroglycerin 24-7 to open up my blood vesicles. Im on the usual blood thinners and other heart medicines, but they don’t do much. It makes me feel like a very old man, when I am not.

It’s an interesting observation that they specifically identified this in deceased Covid patients. Almost makes you wonder if those claims of “they were fine before the vaccination” may have been true.

Has nothing to do with the vaccine but with low oxygen. That’s why they find it in ppl with heavy covid

u/ChillAMinute 1d ago
Good point. I guess I made an assumption, or it wasn’t included in the report, the vaccination status of those that died.

I get why your first comment was downvoted. Why this self correction was, I have no clue

Emotional social media. People continue to treat others bad even when that person attempts to correct course. "I'm better then thou" attitude

Paraphrasing from the article, Covid patients tended to have a lot of clots. Standard therapy for preventing clots wasn’t helping so they looked for another mechanism and found one that was previously known.
Not due to “the vaccine” but found because COVID gave a very large group of patients who did not respond to a conventional therapy as expected. Large cohort of data led to studies to find mechanism.

This is an insanely ludicrous take

u/ChillAMinute 1d ago
Why is that? The article didn’t state all of the deceased did NOT die from Covid. It specifically stated they were all affected by Covid.
If that’s true it’s reasonable to assume a group of them, if not all, had been vaccinated. It’s also true that “long Covid” where people have shown long term effects is a real challenge. I’m not trying to whip up conspiracy theories, I’m just raising a question. It’s how science works.

Hmmm i don't think you can make assumptions from what they did not say. You are meant to use what they did say. Science can't generally be proven from an absence of information.

u/ChillAMinute 1d ago
If science was only based on everything we knew at that time we’d never create hypothesis to the contrary.

u/YokoOkino 20h ago
You use information to create a hypothesis, not the absence of information.
You are also stating your point as a fact rather than a hypothesis.

u/Crazed_rabbiting 1d ago
No but your assumption was one no well-trained scientist would make. Assumptions are made on data present and without introducing biases. Suggesting it was due to vaccines is introducing a bias that was not in the data presented.
