A new study published in Circulation pointed out that COVID-19 can induce thrombosis. The study encompassed a population-wide cohort of 48 million adults in England and Wales and estimated that after 49 weeks of COVID-19 diagnosis, the risk of arterial thrombosis and venous thrombosis events (VTEs) increased.
The research team suggested that the strategies to prevent vascular events after COVID-19 are particularly important after severe COVID-19 leading to hospitalization and new simple treatment strategies to reduce infection-associated VTEs and arterial thrombosis are needed.

From Jan. 1 to Dec. 7, 2020, the team studied the incidence of arterial thrombosis and VTEs after being diagnosed with COVID-19. Among the 48 million adults studied in the UK, 125,985 confirmed cases were hospitalized patients, while 1,319,789 were outpatients within 28 days of COVID-19 diagnosis.
