DWQA QuestionsCategory: Coronavirus COVID-19A viewer asks: “Some doctors were concerned about blood clots in the capillary system—too small to show up on X-rays. The only way to detect these clots, which I suspect is detecting NOT-normal blood coagulation activity and excessive clotting conditions, is a test called the D-dimer: https://labcorp.com/help/patient-test-info/d-dimer. The doctors concerned about this, believe the long-term health impacts are potentially grave. In fact, they are advising their patients to immediately get on prescription blood thinners to combat this condition. But here is the REALLY concerning piece of information. SIXTY-TWO PERCENT of all vaccine recipients who have taken the D-dimer test, test POSITIVE for excessive clotting conditions. What is Creator’s perspective? Is this anything to truly worry about? What are the implications if any? Or is it a temporary and mostly harmless response for the vast majority of vaccine recipients?”

Fortunately, the latter is truly the case here. This test detects with good sensitivity the occurrence of coagulation problems within the body, but that does not speak to consequences of this insult and whether it is severe enough to worry about or even a serious problem. We said very early along with the onset of the pandemic that about 10% of people with COVID-19 will develop some discernible cardiac complications. This is the reason for the so-called cardiac irritation or inflammation, it is response of the immune system to a coagulation phenomenon in part, exacerbated in some cases by presence of the virus within the tissues, so this is nothing new and we have said before as well that those individuals reacting to the presence of the spike protein and developing side effects because of it from the vaccination are the very ones who will have serious impairments requiring hospitalization and possible death. So what this doctor is seeing with his D-dimer test is the reality that exposure to this virus is nothing to trifle with, but it is not the kiss of death to have some spike protein in your system, even for a prolonged period of time. This is a function of individual sensitivity levels of spike protein and other variables regarding resilience because of the individual’s age, overall health condition, where the virus particles accumulate to the greatest degree, and the consequential coagulopathy that might take place. Some organs are much more able to tolerate coagulation events in the microvasculature than others because there is a large tissue reserve for that particular organ. So this is not a simple thing that can be assigned a yes or no answer, but categorically, we would say it is not a problem needing to be overblown such that it discourages vaccination, at least for adults. Time will tell whether problems of the vaccine in children develop to a greater or lesser degree than adult recipients, but we see no problem in withholding vaccine from children who are at low risk in the first place of serious illness, and that shifts the cost-benefit ratio compared to adults, making vaccine less an imperative unless there is a risk to others inevitably exposed to them who might be at high risk of death should they contract COVID-19.
