Is COVID-19 more of a clotting issue?

I am hearing that COVID-19 may be more of a clotting issue than lung issue....if that is true would someone with VonWillebrands disease be more or less at risk?

The clotting is primarily occurring in the lungs, so it is a lung issue, but the inflammation in the lungs (pneumonia) is equally important.
