The incidence of blood clots in Covid-19 patients was high in the beginning of the pandemic, but early diagnosis and improved treatment have shown to curb the condition
Edward Hatfield didn’t think he had any symptoms of blood clotting when he sought emergency care for Covid-19 in August. He experienced breathing difficulty and a falling oxygen level.
But doctors ordered a CT scan that they said turned up a clot in his left lung—one serious enough to warrant treatment with blood thinners. Mr. Hatfield, a 71-year-old retired communications engineer in Norcross, Ga., eventually made it home from the hospital and was given a maintenance dose of the anticoagulant warfarin.
