Interesting to find out if this is again correlated to blood type. Type O has a lower risk of clots from COVID in general, thought to be related to the amount of von Willebrand factor in the blood:<p>"...since the ACE2 receptor belongs to the renin-angiotensin system (it regulates blood pressure), the virus cannot but affect the blood vessels. Apparently, it is capable of causing local inflammation of the walls of blood vessels and capillaries. This results in an increased release of VWF into the blood, which, in turn, provokes clotting."
