Excerpt: "In summary, our analysis suggests that aspirin use may have beneficial effects in patients with COVID-19. Mechanistically, these findings are plausible given aspirin’s irreversible antiplatelet effect and the frequent hypercoagulability observed in COVID-19 patients. The results of our study are intriguing, especially because aspirin has been thoroughly studied in chronic cardiovascular disease, has a well-described safety profile, and is readily available throughout the world. The preliminary, hypothesis-generating nature of our study provides the basis for a larger study, which will be needed to confirm our findings and assess the extent to which the relationships observed in our study are causal. Until a randomized controlled trial of aspirin is performed, it is imperative to exercise cautious optimism and deliberately balance aspirin’s known risks against its potential benefits in patients afflicted by COVID-19."

Aspirin’s one of the few true wonder drugs.
If it has been discovered years later than it was, we’d be paying a hundred dollars a pill and needing a prescription to get it.

Thanks. I asked my doc about K2 not long ago and he advised against that. Having said that I will definitely up the anti on Brussel sprouts.
