They should do this study on unvaccinated women.

Reminds me of surgery teams trying to argue (with pre-/post-menopausal and trans women) that estrogen shouldn’t be taken before surgery because of the clotting risks — of a hormone that has simple coin-flip odds of being irreversibly present in their patients, and is also considered by many surgical teams to correlate with different clotting behaviors than men. (Not necessarily more clots, but certainly not the same ones they’re accustomed to.)

Long-term, I expect the headline would likely be improved by stating instead:

“NASA zero-gee sim reaffirms that women have different clotting behaviors than men”

But selling that argument to U.S. researchers is an entire problem of its own; perhaps another presidential cycle.

Odd then that with 25 of the 120 people who have crewed the ISS[1] being women we haven't seen anyone develop serious clots?
