Having an effect on the lungs makes sense to me - its a respiratory illness. But why would a respiratory disease cause blood clots?

- Hallucinaut 5y agoIt's not a "respiratory illness". See Barrin92's response to you. That suggestion is also implicitly dismissing all the people who had lingering effects long after COVID and long before vaccines.
- Taniwha 5y agoIt's an illness of the epithelial tissues, - ie the surfaces of your organs, especially the insides of the vascular system that pumps the blood around your body - sure there's a lot of epithelial tissues in your lungs but they are all through your body, especially in the circulatory system and heart - it's not really surprising that damaging that results in strokes and heart attacks. It's also not surprising that it results in the virus travelling through the entire body
- irishsultan 5y agoWhy wouldn't it? Or rather, why do you think that by labeling a disease as being respiratory it suddenly can only affect the respiratory system?
