What actually happens when COVID19 attacks ?
Is it something to do with genes ?
Blood Clots , that how it starts.
Another study, from the Netherlands, found that more than 20 percent of 184 ICU patients with COVID-19-related pneumonia had blood clotting. And a study from Wuhan, China of 81 COVID-19 patients showed blood clotting in 25 percent.
As doctors learn more about what makes COVID-19 so severe for some patients, they have discovered a mysterious and potentially lethal complication of the disease: blood clots.
It’s one of several unexpected complications from the virus, which was initially thought to just cause respiratory problems, though highly severe ones. Doctors are also seeing issues with heart inflammation, kidney disease and liver problems in their patients, and believe it may be due to changes in the blood.
The medicine remdesivir might not work as it will effect Kidneys.
Now how related to genes ? Depending on the blood group and few other factors the blood clotting varies.
Blood clotting was also a major issue for Nick Cordero, the 41-year-old Broadway star with COVID-19 who is currently in a coma. He was put on blood thinners after doctors noticed clotting in his right leg, but the medication led to issues with his blood pressure and internal bleeding in his intestines, his wife, Amanda Kloots, shared on Instagram. Without the blood thinners, though, the blood clots returned, and doctors had to amputate Cordero’s right leg on April 18.
So , coming back to what I was pointing that it might vary on Genes ---
People with blood types A and B may have higher risks for developing dangerous blood clots compared to people who have type O blood. That's according to new research that also showed a slightly higher risk for certain types of heart disease among the A and B groups.
Now , I will cite a RESEARCH done in WUHAN -
Here, we compared the ABO blood group distribution in 2,173 patients with COVID-19 confirmed by SARS-CoV-2 test from three hospitals in Wuhan and Shenzhen, China with that in normal people from the corresponding regions. The results showed that blood group A was associated with a higher risk for acquiring COVID-19 compared with non-A blood groups, whereas blood group O was associated with a lower risk for the infection compared with non-O blood groups.

The blood clotting is leading to a significant amount of COVID-19 deaths, but doctors and researchers are unsure as to why it is happening.
“It’s out of the norm, and we’re wondering, are blot clots one of the reasons why these patients are dying?” Dr. Todd Rice, an associate professor of medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, told CNN.

KIND NOTE :
These are very tough times.
The COVID19 Pandemic has created lot of economical hazards all over the world.
