triggered or caused by?

fascinating, thank you.

that makes sense, we must have so much new data on how viruses affects humanity as a whole because of the global testing going on so long for so many people.

Probably triggered. But we don’t really know.

I mean, it's probably some sort of autoimmune thing, where the infection causes the immune system to go haywire and attacks your own body.
