The highly contagious new human severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and coagulopathies are now recognized as major causes of mortality. SARS-CoV-2 may be a highly prothrombotic virus that alters the coagulation cascade in unknown ways, causing a steady rise in D-dimer as the severity and extent of micro thrombosis rises [1].

Keywords: Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE); Thrombosis; COVID-19
