Buffalo Bills Fan Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 https://www.businessinsider.com/blood-clot-coronavirus-covid-19-patient-lung-heart-kidney-2020-4 A coronavirus patient thought he was recovering. Then doctors found blood clots in his lungs — a new and potentially deadly complication of the virus. Yeji Jesse Lee and Lydia Ramsey Apr 22, 2020, 1:38 PM Michael Reagan at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York for blood-clot treatment on April 14. Michael Reagan Doctors are finding blood clots in the lungs, hearts, and kidneys of coronavirus patients. Some of them are critically ill, but others seem relatively stable. Blood clots can travel and create blockages in veins, which could lead to strokes, heart attacks, and other issues. Without clinical trials or science-backed treatments, physicians are forced to figure out how to best treat these complications on "very weak but very compelling data," Dr. Alex Spyropoulos, an expert on blood clots at Northwell Health in New York, told Business Insider. Business Insider talked to Michael Reagan, a 49-year-old COVID-19 patient whose doctors recently discovered dozens of blood clots in his lungs. Read live updates about the coronavirus here. More than 2 million people around the world have been infected with the novel coronavirus, but there's still a lot we don't know about how the disease affects the human body. Respiratory issues are one of the key symptoms of infection, but other complications — like kidney issues and heart problems — have more recently risen to the surface as physicians struggle to better understand how to treat their patients. With COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, doctors are also seeing blood clots in the lungs and bodies of patients. Clots can travel and create blockages in veins, leading to strokes, heart attacks, and other issues. Some of the patients with blood clots are in hospitals in critical condition, while others diagnosed with the complications are otherwise healthy enough to be sent home. That's what happened to Michael Reagan, a 49-year-old COVID-19 patient. 'It feels like a toxin is in my body' Reagan, who works for an international biomedical company in New York, was diagnosed with COVID-19 in late March and had been recovering at home in New York City for weeks. He was taking azithromycin, an antibiotic used to treat infections, and hydroxychloroquine, an antimalarial medication, as a participant in a clinical trial. His symptoms included breathing problems, a high fever, and coughing up blood. Reagan said he was starting to feel a little better early last week until he suddenly began to experience a high fever once again, along with chest pains. Never miss out on healthcare news.

When he went into the hospital, Reagan said doctors told him coronavirus-related pneumonia had spread into both lungs. A pulmonologist later told him he had dozens of little blood clots throughout his lungs. "It feels like a toxin is in my body," Reagan told Business Insider. Blood clots in recovering coronavirus patients are a new worry for doctors. In early autopsy data from Northwell Health, about 40% of coronavirus patients who died after leaving the hospital appeared to have experienced major clotting events, like a massive heart attack or lung clots, Business Insider previously reported. In a recent observational study, Dutch researchers reported that about one-third of the 184 coronavirus patients they observed in the intensive-care unit had a complication associated with a clot. To treat his blood clots, Reagan ended up staying overnight in a hospital to receive tissue plasminogen activator, a protein used to treat heart attacks and strokes that helps break down blood clots. Reagan was then sent home with Eliquis, a blood thinner. "I had no idea a blood clot could hurt so bad," Reagan said. Blood clots key to finding key info on this virus?

Partisan lefties and righties will go to their corners and the swing voters who are reasonable about it will understand that the local, state and governments are doing everything they can. And ultimately the blame will be laid on China, as it should be. 4

Reality Check Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 It will be interesting to see the full statistics on total deaths attributed to ALL causes of deaths and their historical relationships when the dust settles. A complete statistical model will reveal much. 1 1

Great analysis of the pandemic. Someone pointed out that the flu was the equivalent of the virus in the pandemic, comparing the deaths of two months versus those of 12 months. Thankfully, you arrived with an irrelevant comment to the topic.

You do realize the flu season doesn't last 12 months, right? During the 2017-2018 flu season, the CDC estimated there were between 60,000 - 80,000 flu related deaths and most of those occurred during a 16 week stretch where deaths were at or above the epidemic threshold - which means over 7% of all deaths during those weeks (between 3,000-4,000 per week) were flu related. This virus may be worse; however, quit acting like the flu is nothing at all. 1
