The autopsy may play a minor role in the daily lives of pathologists, but it has proven important in highlighting some pressing questions that remain unanswered in the context of the current Corona pandemic.
German pathologist and director of the Hamburg Forensic Institute, Dr. Klaus Buchel, revealed that an examination of the corpses of people with a crown indicated the effect of Covid-19 on muscles and some other vital organs such as the heart.

At the start of the epidemic, researchers had focused on the effect of Covid-19 on the lungs, but Dr. Buchl says additional factors of increasing importance will be essential in identifying the true nature of the virus.
The German doctor also explained that many of the patients were elderly, smokers and obese, or who suffered from chronic diseases such as diabetes. It was concluded that lifestyle, age and other diseases are closely related to higher risks.
Bushel also emphasized that the autopsy of injured people who do not belong to risk groups such as healthy children and young adults is extremely important in identifying the nature of the disease. However, he regretted the lack of transparency in including deaths in the result of the virus, as insufficient amounts of information are published on exceptional cases, some of which lead to the classification of patients who died as a result of unrelated diseases with the Corona virus, as deceased as a result of the virus.
