A member asked:
Do mild cases of covid 19 infection need blood thinners like aspirin as preventive measure to prevent stroke ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Aspirin with Covid ?: Even with "mild cases of Covid", a low dose of aspirin ( "baby aspirin" ) can reduce the potential for inflammatory components of the Covid virus to create blood clots. Ask your primary care provider for advice on this subject.
