The spike protein introduces clotting even without entering cells.

Experimental evidence in vitro not in vivo.

OTOH, test tubes have confounding factors which are much more easily allowed for.

I see the relationship with SARS-CoV-2 spike protein S1 and the formation of microclots, but the relation to the mRNA vaccines and iron is not clear to me - despite these two footnotes:

Undoubtedly there is much to be learned about this new mRNA technology. Hopefully someone is compiling data and correlating outcomes. :)
