Even when boarding a plane and sitting for a long time, there will be blood clots. Especially in the legs Long-term frost in the arteries makes the blood clot more easily, while Asians are considered low risk, with 1 million people with blood clots in the feet, only 10. You have a chance of scales OR a blood clot that spreads to the lungs. Causing blood clots in the lungs. Causing failure of oxygen exchange. And you may die Cause concern to the general public, including doctors and nurses
