I really appreciate you pointing this out. For one, so that I could correct the typo but also because it prompted me to look up the difference between thrombus and thrombosis. The best explanation I saw was this: A thrombus is a blood clot, and thrombosis is the formation of a clot that reduces blood flow. Thanks so much!
