Quick Glance: The Link Between COVID-19 and Blood Clots
- A case of COVID-19 appears to increase the risk of forming dangerous blood clots long after recovering from the infection, potentially leading to a heart attack or stroke.
- Research shows that blood clot risk can remain elevated for nearly a year after getting COVID-19, especially within the first week after diagnosis and for those hospitalized.
- High inflammation levels in response to COVID-19 may trigger blood clots, as the immune system fights the virus.
- Individuals with severe COVID-19 cases, particularly those hospitalized, are at higher risk for blood clots that can block essential organs like lungs or brain.
