Signs of early cardiac damage boosts risk of death in COVID cases
By Amerigo Allegretto
Researchers from London and Wuhan, China, have found that first-phase ejection fraction on echocardiography scans was strongly associated with survival in COVID-19. The measurement seems to reflect a connection between COVID-19 severity and preexisting preclinical heart failure.

Fresh data emerge on pulmonary embolism in COVID-19 patients
By Philip Ward
Pulmonary embolism occurs most often in COVID-19 patients in the intensive care unit, followed by those treated on general wards and the emergency room, Dutch authors have reported. Also, pulmonary embolism is more commonly located in peripheral rather than central pulmonary arteries, which suggests local thrombosis plays a major role.
