Science and Technology Daily News (Reporter Liu Xia) According to a recent report by the physicist organization network, German scientists discovered for the first time that the new coronavirus can significantly change the size and hardness of red blood cells and white blood cells in the human body using a real-time cell deformation measuring instrument.

Some patients are still suffering from symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue and headache after being infected with the new coronavirus for 6 months or more.

In order to clarify this problem, scientists from the Max Planck Institute of Light Science and the German Immunotherapy Center measured 400 from 17 new coronary pneumonia patients, 14 new coronary pneumonia patients and 24 healthy people (as a control group).

To analyze blood cells, the researchers used a self-developed real-time cell deformation measuring instrument (RT-DC)

The results show that the size and deformability of red blood cells in patients with new coronary pneumonia are very different from those of healthy people, indicating that these cells are damaged, which helps explain why patients with new coronary pneumonia are at increased risk of blockage and embolism in the pulmonary blood vessels
