COVID-19 associated hypercoagulability and platelet hyperactivity are characteristic of COVID-19 infection and contribute to an increased thrombotic burden. This clinical phenomenon is observed during acute illness and the immediate post-recovery period. In addition to findings of hypercoagulability, endotheliopathy, and inflammation from our previous study of 39 COVID-19 survivors at a time point approximating 1 year after their recovery from COVID-19, we evaluated the platelet activation profile of a subset of 36 patients, demonstrating increased platelet activation with elevated CD36 and P-Selectin expression compared to healthy individuals without COVID-19 infection.
