Description by Gemini Fast: A screenshot from a video titled "Bizarre Structures Inside Blood May Be Responsible for Long COVID." A man with short dark hair, wearing a blue t-shirt, is speaking, positioned in front of a massive, 3D visualization of a blue and orange spiky molecular structure (likely the SARS-CoV-2 virus).
Description by Gemini Fast: A false-color, fluorescence micrograph of a microscopic structure, likely a Long COVID microclot. The structure glows red, green, and cyan against a black background and is labeled with arrows pointing to its components: ThT (Thioflavin T, indicating amyloid structures), MPO (Myeloperoxidase), and DNA, suggesting a complex of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs).
Description by Gemini Fast: A screenshot showing the title page of a research article from the Journal of Medical Virology. The title reads: "Circulating Microclots Are Structurally Associated With Neutrophil Extracellular Traps and Their Amounts Are Elevated in Long COVID Patients." The names of the researchers and their international affiliations are listed below.

Always cool seeing big general science YouTube channels cover our chronic illnesses.
Perhaps sad that them just calling the scale of the problem right is a thrill...
But Anton Petrov actually informed me on NETs -> microclots, from a #TeamClots study, earlier this year.
