Why It Matters

Post-Covid syndrome is characterized by long-term persistence of symptoms after COVID-19 infection. Doctors associate it with systemic inflammation and the body's immune response.

Covid has disappeared from the news, but remains in the bodies of millions of people, highly qualified general practitioner Lyudmila Lapa pointed out in a conversation with Tsargrad. Post-Covid syndrome is not only fatigue and loss of smell, she emphasized. One of the most dangerous consequences is a “time bomb” that continues to live in the body.

According to doctors' observations, viral proteins settle in tissues - from the intestines to the kidneys, liver and brain, and the immune system continues to fight them, producing a huge amount of antibodies. This protein load disrupts blood biology: platelets increase, there are many of them, and there are not enough resources to destroy excess proteins.

“For us, Covid is a “man” who has found a host. It has settled in almost all organs: in connective tissue, in our head, in our blood vessels, in our bones, everywhere. And our immune system begins to perceive it as a foreign body. And when it encounters this foreign body, it tries to get rid of it and produces those same proteins,” Lapa described the mechanism.

The result is elevated D-dimer, thick blood and a high risk of vascular accidents. The consequences are especially hard on the elderly - they experience increased frequency of dizziness, cognitive impairment, and even dementia.

The problem is not limited to the infection itself. Some vaccines also left a heavy mark, Lapa said. Thus, the American Johnson & Johnson in a number of cases caused thrombosis - this is a recognized fact confirmed by the WHO, FDA and CDC. The doctor calls the German Pfizer vaccines “traumatic,” noting that among those vaccinated, especially multiple times, the risk of blood clots was significantly higher.

In summary, the expert warned that frequent dizziness and headaches, unsteady gait, involuntary bruises without contusions, chronic fatigue and decreased cognitive abilities, as well as thick blood that is difficult to draw into a syringe should be the reason for immediate consultation with a doctor. She also called for calming and supporting the immune system under the supervision of a doctor.
