Microclots. One of the many things Medical Leech Therapy has the potential to treat.

Scientists found that blood clots are a primary driver of long COVID symptoms.

Researchers have discovered that the debilitating exhaustion and brain fog associated with long COVID may be caused by microscopic "microclots" reinforced by sticky, web-like structures called NETs. These neutrophil extracellular traps are normally used by white blood cells to catch pathogens, but in long COVID patients, they persist as a structural mesh. This combination creates stubborn blockages in the capillaries, the body's smallest blood vessels, effectively starving vital organs and tissues of the oxygen they need to function. The study found that patients with long COVID had nearly 20-fold more of these microclots than healthy individuals.

This breakthrough shifts the narrative of long COVID from a vague malaise to a measurable physical state involving dysregulated blood chemistry. Because these unique blood structures are so distinct, researchers were able to use an AI agent to identify long COVID blood samples with 91 percent accuracy—a major feat for a condition that often evades standard medical testing. By pinpointing this "thromboinflammatory" environment, scientists now have a clear target for future therapies. Instead of merely managing symptoms, medical professionals can look toward breaking down these persistent traps to restore blood flow and energy to millions of patients.
