Also, fangen wir mal hinten an, Ich werde jetzt nach und nach #Literatur zu den #Luftreinigern twittern, um die Diskussion zu substantivieren.

I'll do that mainly in English, at times in German.

Let's start. (AC-1) Nature News, October 2021.

Of course, this is only a #News article in @Nature. The paper, at that time only a preprint, now appeared here:

In this work, authos state "Here we present
the first data providing evidence for the removal of SARS-CoV-2 and microbial bioaerosols from the air using portable air filters with UV sterilization on a COVID-19 ward."

I think this is true, in the paper actually particles...

H τεχνική #PCR που έγινε γνωστή στο σύνολο του κόσμου λόγω της χρήσης της για την ανίχνευση του #SARSCoV2 , στηρίζεται στο γεγονός ότι το γενετικό υλικό μπορεί με κατάλληλα ένζυμα να αντιγραφεί και σε δοκιμαστικό σωλήνα όπως και στον οργανισμό μας. https://www.savemyexams.co....
H PCR μπορεί να ενισχύσει(πολλαπλασιάσει) και να ανιχνεύσει συγκεκριμένη αλληλουχία γενετικού υλικού. Αποτελεί μια εξαιρετικά ευαίσθητη τεχνική .Η #realtime #RTPCR είναι τεχνική που επιτρέπει τον ποσοτικό προσδιορισμό #mRNA sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Image
Στην τεχνική αυτή ακολουθούνται τρία βήματα: (i) της αντίστροφης μεταγραφής (RT) - μετατροπής του RNA σε cDNA, (ii) της ενίσχυσης του cDNA χρησιμοποιώντας την PCR και (iii) της ανίχνευσης και ποσοτικοποίησης των προϊόντων ενίσχυσης σε πραγματικό χρόνο.nature.com/articles/nprot…

#Thread: Since many people in #Odisha & outside have the impression that the state govt has done incredibly well at #covidmanagement, here's something I feel people need to know too before painting a rosy picture on SM. I live in a place that is 34 km away from #Nabarangpur DH
Anxious about my father's health, I tried figuring the nearest RT-PCR test centre, and I was told there's only one centre, i.e., #Nabarangpur DHH and it takes about 5-6 days to get the test results. Why? Because they send the sample to SLN Hospital at #Koraput
Now here's what you need to know- #Odisha govt after one year of slumber, sanctioned ₹20 cr yesterday for #Covid testing labs in 16 districts and #Nabarangpur is one among them. After 1 year of a goddamn #pandemic, my district will finally have a #RTPCRTest lab.

Sr Adv Sreekumar takes Court through earlier orders of govt regarding pricing of RTPCR tests etc.

Court: Mr Sreekumar we don't have the time to hear this in detail

Sreekumar points out that the stakeholders should have been consulted before capping price

#KeralaHighCourt
This is nothing but a violation of principles of natural justice.. This is totally in violation of the guidelines.. We could have produced much more data... on the value of the materials: Sreekumar

Given the full community spread of #SARS_CoV_2, it is time to stop incessant #RTPCR testing in asymptomatic people, so called "healthy sick" , and save resources. Start early Rx with ivermectin+budesonide+Zn+ chicken soup+kadha or whatever in mild to moderate #Covid_19 cases. 1/n
And, reserve #ICUs for serious #Covid patients only. Start triage and stop the use of #Remdesivir and #convalescentplasma therapy ASAP, as it doesn't help save lives. Don't hospitalize maniacs hyperventilating due to fear in the Covid ward and shift them to counseling ... 2/n
.. for managing hyper active state of mind & deactivate their social media accounts + WhatsApp. Public health intervention with #VitaminD 60k once week for 4 weeks starting now and not while patient is sick with #Covid By then it will not help to build adequate VitD reserve..3/n

The #COVIDSecondWave is real .
Being prepared helps a little.

As someone who is recovering from Covid, sharing some basic points on #COVID19 .

Pls share if useful . 😇🙏

(P.S - I have cross verified with doctors prior to posting this in public domain )
2/13

If any symptoms, get tested (RT- PCR) IMMEDIATELY along with ENTIRE family.

DON'T WAIT for 2-3 days.
Labs are already backed up !

Begin wearing masks & Social Distancing EVEN INSIDE Homes.

DON'T SELF MEDICATE.

The SOONER the treatment begins, the BETTER it shall be.
3/13

Rapid Antigen Test ( RAT) is a poor substitute for RTPCR.
Preferably, get #RTPCR Test done .

RAT has a high false negative rate.

Patients can be negative initially yet HAVE COVID. Accordingly more tests are advised.

NOTE :EARLY & CORRECT diagnosis is the key .

Il y a eu un débat sur ces Ct et l'opportunité de les communiquer aux patients.

Primo, cela dépend de l'échantillon. Secundo, pour les #coronavirus, il est risqué de voir dans le nombre de copies d'ARN une charge virale.

Es gibt sie noch, die guten aufrichtigen Richter:

Die 3. Strafkammer des Berufungsgerichts von Lissabon urteilt, daß es rechtswidrig ist, Menschen wegen eines #PCRtest Ergebnisses in #Quarantäne zu nehmen, da der Test ungeeignet sei, eine Infektion zu belegen. Image
1. Der #PCRtest sei lediglich eine Methode einer Hilfsdiagnose, aber nur Ärzte können wirkliche Diagnosen stellen. Schon daran fehlt es.

2. #Quarantaene oder #Isolation ohne ärztliche Bewertung und Diagnose stellt eine rechtswidrige 'Inhaftierung dar.
