Abstract

There are many complications associated with the SARS CoV-2 i.e. a lung injury, neuro-inflammation and GI symptoms. Thrombocytopenia (Low platelet count) increase mortality rate of COVID-19 infected patients. The mechanisms by which this coronavirus affects the hematopoietic system, however, remain unknown. Fever, weakness, and a dry cough are the most common symptoms in COVID-19 patients. Abdominal pain, headaches, palpitations, and chest pain are uncommon signs. Reduced lymphocyte and platelet counts, but normal white blood cell counts, are typical haematological changes. The mechanisms by which this coronavirus affects the hematopoietic system remain unknown. We suggest some natural medicine that may help to prevent thrombocytopenia.
