It is reported that a patient suffering from the aftereffects of the new corona tried 'blood purification therapy' with the last hope, but it was not effective and he just lost his property.

After being infected with the new coronavirus, there are cases of suffering from post-morbid symptoms (new corona sequelae) such as malaise, headache, shortness of breath, etc. for more than 2 months, and this new corona sequelae is completely cured. The method has not been established at the time of writing the article. It has been reported that some people overseas suffer from the aftereffects of the new corona, and some people lose their property by taking unfounded and expensive blood purification treatment.

Long COVID (new corona aftereffects) is considered to occur if symptoms that cannot be explained by other diseases continue for 3 months or more after the onset of the new coronavirus infection, or for 2 months or more after recovery from the new coronavirus infection. The cause of the new corona sequelae is not yet known, but one theory is that a small blood clot causes vascular embolization (stomach), which impedes the movement of blood flow and oxygen in the body. It has been.

Therefore, it is said that medical institutions that perform ' apheresis ' as a treatment method for the aftereffects of the new corona have appeared in Germany, Switzerland, Turkey, and so on. Apheresis is a process that separates blood cells from water-soluble water, and treatments include plasma exchange and blood cell removal, which are used to purify the blood. However, there is no evidence that apheresis is effective against the aftereffects of the new corona, and no expertly peer-reviewed studies have been published.

According to the British Medical Journal, a female patient living in the Netherlands has complained of malaise, which takes two hours to walk to the kitchen after being infected with the new coronavirus in November 2020. He also complains of palpitation, shortness of breath, and chest pain, all of which are typical symptoms of the aftereffects of the new corona.

The woman tried to return to work twice, but eventually resigned in November 2021. The woman also joined a Facebook group suffering from the aftereffects of the new coronavirus to exchange information and visited a medical institution in Cyprus in March 2022.

The woman rented an apartment near Cyprus and received about 1685 euros (about 235,000 yen) of apheresis therapy six times over a two-month period. In addition, hyperbaric oxygen therapy that breathes oxygen in a high-pressure room and intravenous drip and injection of vitamins were also performed. However, none of them had any effect. As a result, female patients have run out of almost all their fortunes.

'It's not yet clear how thrombosis is formed by the new coronavirus, and whether apheresis prevents the recurrence of microthrombi,' said Robert Aliens, a vascular biology researcher at Leeds University School of Medicine. Unknown. Sure, microthrombus can be a biomarker for a disease, but how do you know it's the cause? Apheresis and anticoagulant therapy are not without risk, 'he said. I am questioning the medical institution that claims to be.
