The clotting in covid is fibrin based not platelet.

If aspirin did anything for covid you'd be seeing it on the news every single day for the past two years.

Budedenide was shown to help significantly if given early. So does fluvoxamine. And sufficient vitamin D3 level seems to work well as a prophylactic.

And yet there’s hardly any mention of them, let alone “everyday”.

If you read only positive analysis of those supplements/drugs, they always seem positive. Except they aren't doing what you think because you don't hear when they don't work.

     "No difference between arms in time to symptom resolution"

     "Fluvoxamine did not impact time to symptom resolution"

No, I read both positive and negative reviews when I can find them. I have not yet found negative reviews for budesenide (though some may exist). I did for fluv.

But I also found for remdesivir, which in the US and Israel is given like candy. My point being “hear about it everyday” is more related to politics and agenda than actual efficiency.
