Scary description of aspirin

Faculty of Medicine of the Hacettepe University, Head of the Department of Pediatric Infectious Diseases. Dr Mehmet Ceyhan said that aspirin, which is used as a blood thinner, can lead to death in people who have not been diagnosed with the coronavirus.

Ceyhan said:

“We know that the risk of a disease increases if people who take aspirin for a long time have the flu; a disease called ‘reye syndrome’. Unfortunately it is a disease that kills 100 percent after reaching a certain time. and has no care.

It was always thought to be seen in children; but in recent years, publications among adults have increased. We now know that it also appears in adults. There are some groups of diseases that take aspirin for a long time, we tell them they should definitely be vaccinated against the flu and are in the risk group.

Ceyhan, who made warnings, continued as follows:

“If someone who has the flu takes aspirin, the risk of this disease increases by 35 times; liver failure, a very serious picture with swelling in the brain and there is still no treatment. The mortality rate is around one hundred percent If Covid-19 is diagnosed, there is no serious harm in taking aspirin.

However, by giving aspirin as a prophylaxis or a person who has just had a fever, they cannot get a test because they only have one symptom and people use aspirin as a blood thinner. Now the flu season has started, it could be the flu, can’t tell.

Then there is a serious risk. If a person takes aspirin as a prophylaxis or because they have a fever right now, this invites the disease I mentioned. Therefore, it is inconvenient for a person to use aspirin as an anticoagulant unless a test is done and a coronavirus diagnosis is made.
