Was he on blood thinners? It seems to me that we haven’t had so many old folks die of clots because so many are on blood thinners, and that might be some protection for them.

No idea.

Both my parents got the vax. No problems whatsoever. They’re in their 70s and my father has had multiple heart problems so he’s on thinners. The reason why it’s so dangerous from 50 years and below is because of the clotting and sudden immune attacks on the heart. Older folks don’t have very active immune systems and many of them ARE on blood thinners.

We have had the latest variant strike a large number of our friends in the 80 +- age group.

If we are not on aspirin, many are on heavy duty blood thinners/Eliquis and aspirin.

We all survived our Thanksgiving variant . After about 3 weeks, we are basically back to okay.

I was walking a mile plus on our nearby street with my walking sticks each day pre Valiant.

Post Variant, I’m finally back to .5~.6 miles per day.

My wife is walking around the house and our driveway. She is not ready for even .2 miles.
