Doctors Said Her Tests Were Normal — She Ended Up Bedridden
Q: What was life like before all of this started for you?
Olivia describes an active life in high school with track and field, horse work, and plans to pursue veterinary studies before the illness severely limited her daily activities.
COVID Isn't Just a Lung Disease—What the Microscope Revealed
Q: How did international collaboration form around these findings?
Clinicians and patients shared our papers widely, clinicians searched PubMed for related findings, and collaborations blossomed when frontline doctors contacted the lab and expressed interest in applying the microscopy approach in practice.
COVID Isn't Just a Lung Disease—What the Microscope Revealed
Q: What gave you and your team the confidence to challenge the prevailing hypothesis about COVID being primarily a respiratory disease?
The visual evidence from microscopy showed structural abnormalities that could not be ignored, and when combined with proteomics data from long COVID samples, it supported a systemic clotting process rather than a purely respiratory issue.
