Is it true that COVID-19 causes widespread damage to blood vessels and abnormal blood clotting beyond its effects on the lungs?
Yes. An NIH blood-health page states that some people with COVID-19 develop abnormal blood clots in the smallest blood vessels and in multiple organs, and a peer-reviewed review describes widespread endothelial damage and complement-induced blood clotting in COVID-19. Other items add multi-organ inflammatory damage but do not specifically address clotting or vessel damage.
