Preprint Inflammatory Triggers, Cell Death, Membrane Damage and Lipid Asymmetry That Shape Procoagulant Surfaces for Amyloidogenic Microclotting,2025,Pretorius

It is possible thta that is what I am thinking of. But my memory is that I commented on a (briefer) letter on another thread here. It wouldn't be a 'Letter to Nature' as such, since that is what they call papers (or used to).

But the Connors and Ariens letter will do. It covers most of the places where the dots don't join up.
Thank you. I'll have another look sometime and post it here if I find it.
 
I didn’t find anything when searching for «letter» in the titles.

I doubt it would have been flagged as a letter. It was a comment sent to a journal in response to Kell and Pretorius, likely listed under letters but that would depend on the journal.

Connors and Ariens say what needs to be said.
 
But it also makes some cogent points about the weakness of the theory. Even wrong people can be right some times. Beverley Hunt is head of thrombosis at Guy's and Thomas' Hospitals. It would be hard to get a more hard core thrombosis expert in the UK.
Frits Rosendaal has done work on microclots in Long-Covid (unpublished) and seemed rather critical of the whole story as well. I think it could be useful to hear his thoughts on the whole saga (but obviously people that publish a study every week might be happy to just put their name onto everything possible), even though I think everything that can be said has already been said, even if that won't stop people from writing nonsensical reviews even if their predications have turned out the wrong already.
