I was reading the COVID-19 literature and this review was the best I found at elucidating the known pathophysiology so far. It indicated that part of the (very complex) syndrome was platelet release of 5-HT (serotonin). They speculated that SSRIs of some kind could help stem the dumping of 5-HT into the bloodstream. The disease evolves to different stages using different mechanisms at each stage, which explains why certain medications only seem to work at really specific stages of the disease. P. E. Marik, J.
