> COVID is known to activate inflammatory responses in the body and make blood thicker and stickier
The mechanism that causes this is the spike protein (this is well studied now), and applies - perhaps not equally - to COVID infection and COVID immunization
- cubefox 3y agoBut I assume only during the time of infection/immunization and not afterwards, as the blood should return to its usual "thin" state.
- hammock 3y agoPresumably. Are there any studies that show for how long the spike protein is in the blood after infection or immunization?
- kiltedpanda 3y agoYes, the manufacturer's own biodistribution studies showed that it was detectable in the spleen, kidneys, ovaries, testicles, and bone marrow etc until at least 48h after. At the end of the study, some markers were still increasing but they didn't bother to find out when it peaked and declined. Note that this is in complete opposition to the original claims during the vaccine campaign that the vaccine stayed local in the arm. https://youtu.be/fVNFFtmb9gA https://youtu.be/fVNFFtmb9gA
- cubefox 3y ago48 hours is well within the immunization period. We are talking about whether blood is still thicker weeks or months afterwards.
- hammock 3y agoWow. How is this not in the news?
- kiltedpanda 3y agoExactly!
