In early 2021, some patients were developing a rare yet life-threatening condition in which their blood would clot after getting a COVID-19 vaccine.

In these patients, their bodies were mistakenly attacking their own platelets, causing them to clump together and resulting in blood clots and low platelet counts. Researchers didn't know why.

Now, a new study may offer an answer.

In a study published in The New England Journal of Medicine, researchers in Australia, Germany, and Canada analyzed 100 patients who took adenovirus vaccines and developed vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia, also known as VITT.

They found that VITT was likely driven by a change in the antibodies, causing them to switch from harmless to harmful.

"This was the missing link that explains how a normal immune response can, in very rare cases, become harmful," Jing Jing Wang from Flinders University said in a press release.

Fauci's top aide indicted for FOIA evasion of COVID-related emails



David Morens, 78, a former scientific senior advisor who served under former Director Anthony Fauci at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases has been indicted on federal charges that he conspired with others to evade Freedom of Information Act requests by using a personal email account to hide communications about a terminated COVID-19-related research grant.

Morens served as a senior advisor in NIAID's Office of the Director from 2006 to 2022, is charged with conspiracy against the United States; destruction, alteration or falsification of records in federal investigations; concealment, removal or mutilation of records; and aiding and abetting, according to the indictment unsealed in U.S. District Court in Maryland.

The charges stem from allegations that Morens and co-conspirators sought to restore a National Institutes of Health grant titled "Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence" after it was terminated. The grant, awarded to a company and a researcher who made a subaward to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China, was canceled based on allegations that COVID-19 may have emerged from the lab, the indictment states.

As a senior advisor, Morens counseled top NIAID officials on policy, developed recommendations for the NIH, wrote and edited scientific manuscripts, and gathered information from grantees and the scientific community on coronavirus research. He also briefed senior officials who relayed information to the president, Congress and the public. Congressional investigators and the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic have repeatedly described Morens as "Fauci's senior advisor," "Fauci's top aide," or "Dr. Fauci's Senior Scientific Advisor."
