Abstract

The symptoms of COVID-19, leading to pulmonary edema and the need for ventilators may be due to the fact that the virus increases bradykinin levels. If true, administering bradykinin blockers can provide a cheap way to reduce the severity of the symptoms and the burden on hospital resources, and, ultimately, the fatality rate.

ACEIs positive feedback pulmonary edema.
