As we learn more about this infection, we’re realizing that this virus really likes to attack the vasculature and that’s the very problem in stroke victims. Those risk factors are diabetes, heart disease, and morbid obesity. Those patients tend to have high blood pressure, which is a blood vessel disease. And, that is the same thing that affects not only stroke patients, but it also seems this virus really likes to infect this cohort of people. An additional finding is that the infection occurring in hospital-admitted patients tends to cause more blood clots in the bloodstream, especially in the arterial bloodstream. This is the bloodstream that oxygenates the brain, and those are the very blood vessels that can end up with clots that lead to the stroke.
