A new study claims Covid19 attacks the vascular or circulatory system.

Covid-19 is not a respiratory illness, as widely accepted, but a vascular one, claims a study.

The findings, published in the journal Circulation Research, showed how the virus attacks the vascular or circulatory system. This is something that has already been observed, but what wasn't previously known is the exact mechanism and role of the S protein. This protein is replicated by all of the currently available vaccines, the team said.

The effects on the respiratory system are a consequence of the inflammation of the vascular tissue in the lungs.
