Original Note:
Climate change does not cause blood cots, nor does the article claim this. Extreme heat can cause thrombogenesis (blood clots) in the human body. This is an established fact, and can be caused by heatwaves as well as other heat exposure, common in firefighters for example. https://www.who.int/health-topics/heatwaves#tab=tab_2 https://www.news-medical.net/health/What-are-the-Health-Implications-of-Heat-Waves.aspx
