Researchers at Australia’s Heart Research Institute believe they may hold the key to controlling the deadly blood clots caused by COVID-19.
The Heart Research Institute’s Professor Shaun Jackson has been leading a team of researchers developing a new anti-clotting medicine to treat stroke. When news overseas emerged linking blood clots with COVID-19, Professor Jackson and his colleagues turned their focus to the deadly virus.
“COVID-19 causes a storm of blood clots that cause breathing difficulties, organ failure, stroke, heart attack and death. Some 75 per cent of ICU patients develop these widespread clots and their recovery rate is critically low,” said Professor Jackson.
