This ⁦@NYTmag⁩ piece from ⁦@DrHelenOuyang⁩ is important journalism at its best, & also most heart-rending. COVID19 is doing incredible damage - worse still when badly funded health systems are already fragile & failing poorly served communities https://t.co/97pIqRUcrk

Why is tricuspid valve (TV) endocarditis more common in those who use intravenous drugs?

The portal of entry for most bacteria is the venous system. If quick access to the right-heart were enough, TV endocarditis would be more common in everyone.

There must be more to it...

@DrPJLillie Haha. Probably.

[Rohit Bazaz @RBazaz]

@DrPJLillie Not sure. I imagine it's measurable.

[Rohit Bazaz @RBazaz]

@DrPJLillie Or if type 2s, could be that Flu more likely to cause myocardial dysfunction or coronary vasospasm.

[Rohit Bazaz @RBazaz]

@DrPJLillie Type 1 MIs typically occur due to rupture of already established atherosclerotic plaques, different mechanism for venous thrombosis. Could be that inflammatory response to flu more likely to destabilise plaques than response to COVID.
