Article Synopsis
- Minimally invasive tissue sampling (MITS) is a postmortem procedure that can replace complete autopsy (CA) for analyzing COVID-19 deaths, especially in high-infection settings.
- The study involved 12 COVID-19 positive deceased individuals and showed that MITS effectively matched CA diagnoses, confirming COVID-19's role in causing lung damage in most cases.
- MITS is deemed a safe and effective alternative to CA, with all medical personnel testing negative for COVID-19 throughout the study.
