@AkassoglouLab Wow so glad researchers are working on this -- hoping with more understanding of these underlying mechanisms there will also be more hope for real treatments!

@AkassoglouLab They already have a mAbs in the pipe set up to treat this from Alzehimers research. 😀

@AkassoglouLab Now how to we get doctors to actually pay attention to this information and stop giving COVID to high risk patients?

@AkassoglouLab People with Covid infections often have thicker blood. The test for blood clots would be a d-dimer. The test for heart damage is troponin. An immune panel test would test for white blood cells, CD4, CD8, interferon, etc. Wish this was standard procedure for Covid infections.

@AkassoglouLab Therapeutically apart from monoclonals can any existing repurposed shrine expected to interfere in this interaction or pathway?
