Most important lines:
"Setting: Autopsies performed at a single academic medical center, as mandated by the German federal state of Hamburg for patients dying with a polymerase chain reaction–confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19."
"Patients: The first 12 consecutive COVID-19–positive deaths."

Maybe something good comes out of this, e.g. saving patients by treating them with anticoagulants preventively or something like that.
