After studying deaths in Cambodia for several years, my armchair expert opinion does not lean towards the corona 19.
He's from Ohio. He's 31. He has long hair and a beard. His arms looked like this.
Science says things like
"When methamphetamine enters the body, it produces significant increases in the levels of a neurotransmitting chemical in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) called norepinephrine or noradrenaline. Among its many functions, this chemical helps control normal function in the body’s arteries and veins, and when its levels rise, it produces a narrowing of these blood vessels that doctors commonly refer to as vasoconstriction. In turn, the presence of vasoconstriction increases the amount of pressure exerted on the walls of arteries located throughout the body, including the arteries found in and around the brain. The presence of methamphetamine in the bloodstream can also trigger a condition called vasculitis, which occurs when the immune system produces levels of inflammation that damage the integrity of these vessels. One of the potential consequences of vasculitis is a dangerous weakening of the artery walls.
Methamphetamine’s influence on artery health can lead to the formation of a common type of brain aneurysm called a berry aneurysm, according to a 2008 report by the University of Maryland School of Medicine. In addition, methamphetamine’s influence can cause a berry aneurysm to burst open and produce slow or rapid bleeding inside or outside the brain. Berry aneurysms get their name because they have a berry-like shape. Typically, they range in diameter from several millimeters to a centimeter or more; however, in some cases, unusually large berry aneurysms grow larger than two full centimeters in diameter. Depending on individual circumstances, an aneurysm in a methamphetamine user can burst open without warning, or rupture during the course of a toxic reaction to the drug commonly known as a methamphetamine overdose."
And
"Deep vein thromboses (DVTs) are common in users of intravenous drugs. Although recognised as an important problem among professional healthcare workers who treat drug users, there is surprisingly little published research in this area and anything that has been published relates to the hospital rather than the community setting. As such, it is not understood which groups of users of opioid drugs are predisposed to DVT and what preventative measures would be effective in the primary care setting.
Once users of opioid drugs have been diagnosed with DVT, their concordance with treatment regimes in community settings is unreported and potentially problematic.1 Venous access to monitor coagulation is difficult in many patients because of damage caused to veins from drug use. As regular attendance — which is necessary when medications such as warfarin are prescribed — is likely to be compromised in chaotic groups (such as, users of intravenous drugs), many professionals offer self-administered heparin injections; this method reduces the problem of attendance2 but does not necessarily ensure regular, reliable administration.
Intravenous drug-related DVT has substantial resource implications for the NHS. In one published study of 182 females aged 16–70 years who were admitted to hospital with DVT, the cause of DVT in 20% of cases was intravenous drug use;1 this figure rose to 52% for those aged <40 years. In a further study of 109 patients presenting to an emergency department with possible DVT, a third were users of intravenous drugs.3
DVTs resulting from intravenous drug use differ in a number of ways from those arising from other causes. They are: more likely to be situated in the femoral vein (more commonly the right than the left)4 and probably easier to diagnose clinically.3 In addition, intravenous drug use is more likely to be the cause of DVT in younger patients,1,4 who are more likely to be admitted and have longer hospital stays."
I'd bet Vladimir's last pay check on this not being a case of the 19.
