covid-19 causes prolonged and progressive hypoxia (starving your body of oxygen) by binding to the heme groups in hemoglobin in your red blood cells. people are simply desaturating (losing o2 in their blood), and thatõs what eventually leads to organ failures that kill them, not any form of ards or pneumonia.
