eine Veranstaltung in der die #SARSCoV2 Pandemie sehr trivialisiert, relativiert, banalisiert wurde.

Falschdarstellung dieser Erkrankung
nichts zur multiorgan involvement
Am Schlimmsten finde ich,
daß die aktuelle Verdrängung gutgeheißen wird & so getan wird als sei alles unter Kontrolle

Kein Mal wurde erwähnt,
dass #SARSCoV2 an Impfstoffen vorbei mutiert

Kernbotschaft:
Fokus weg von Corona 🤪

#LongCovid comienza en el cerebro. Nuestra BBB* rota nos lleva a no poder regular el flujo sanguíneo cerebral en respuesta a la gravedad. Esto conduce a una sobremarcha #simpática, que es un mecanismo compensatorio y conduce a un #barorreflejo embotado y una falla de precarga. 2) Image
2) El cuerpo responde aumentando la frecuencia cardíaca o aumentando la presión arterial, específicamente la PA diastólica, para que la sangre regrese al cerebro. La barrera intestinal tb se rompe junto con la disfunción autonómica del tracto GI junto con cambios en el microbioma
3) El SI está desregulado, y provoca la producción de una variedad de autoanticuerpos, incluido GPCR AAB. Las glándulas sudoríparas se ven afectadas. El cuerpo parece estar en constante disfunción autonómica que,provoca desregulación inmunitaria continua.

So, now that the ban on the use of #saliva on a #cricket ball is permanent, it's literally the end of an era where seam bowling is concerned.

Can't help but recollect a priceless conversation I had with the one-&-only -- Wasim Akram -- some years ago on this subject.

+
It was some promotional event and I found myself in conversation with the man. He, I thought, was in the mood to chat too.

And when he's in the mood to talk, I can tell you from that personal experience, you'll want to keep everything aside and just listen.

So, I listened.

"Ball jo banta tha... usme do main factors hote the. Saliva aur shine...

"Delivery khatm hone ke baad... ball ek specific route se waapis aata tha -- wicket-keeper se slip, slip se gully ya point, wahan se cover ya mid-off, & back to the bowler...

1/N "... 0.5% povidone iodine (PVP-I) #mouthrinse/gargle for 30 s can reduce #SARSCoV2 virus infectivity to below detectable levels. PVP-I can even interrupt SARS-CoV-2 attachment to #oral & nasopharyngeal tissues & lower the viral particles in the saliva & respiratory droplets."
3/N "[... we propose immediate use of PVP-I in healthcare workers & their patients as described to minimise risk of spread of disease as an addition to currently recommended PPE used during management of #COVID19 patients.]"

In #postcovid patients managing the #cough, clearing it out properly is a big part of the recovery process that every #COVID19 patient has to go through.

For PostCovid wali "khaasi", let's see if this could be of any help👇

1.For #DryCough drink plenty of lukewarm water throughout the day with lemon,tulsi and honey (sips)
#kadha,soup,bone broths🥣🍵

2.If u don't have water or anything else to drink nearby, try swallowing ur #saliva a few times very dry.
3. #SteamInhalation for 10-15 mins , 2-3 times /day and #gargling with saline water.( For both dry n wet cough)

4. Try to can avoid alcohol, sugary drinks n coffee for a while as it might cause #dehydration.🙅

Ok, sort of weird to say...but today I'm dedicating some time to SPIT (formally known as #Saliva). It's the super hot topic this week in the ever-changing #COVID19 diagnostic landscape we are living in, so let's take a quick peek at some of the evidence out there (thread)
I completely understand the importance of testing saliva, particularly as it relates to lack of supplies and resources. It can be a feasible option that basically eliminates HCW risk of infxn during collection. It can also save supplies: no swabs, media, possibly fewer reagents.
First paper is here: DOI: 10.1128/JCM.01659-20
-53 paired samples from OP and/or NP swabs, and saliva were collected
-Standard RNA extraction methods were used for the swab samples, a quick extraction method was used for saliva. Handling high-viscosity samples is discussed.

Reporting progress on #coronavirus Home Test from our teams internal email: Just wanted to give a brief update from the #molbio team as we build momentum towards delivering an at-home, user-friendly, rapid #COVID19 test...We are actually detecting Covid19 #RNA in solution now! 1/
... we got early proof today that we can do reactions from RNA (the genetics code of #SARSーCoVー2 not DNA so it’s more insidious). Our method (which amplified the RNA without a machine) is very tolerant of #saliva - (we still have to crack open the virus RNA for full proof) 2/
The parenthesis in the above tweets are my commentary and I also edited out jargon. But wanted to share our internal optimism. We now know, except for breaking the #virus open to expose its #RNA we should be able to do a #COVID19 test without a #PCR machine @yale and @Penn 3/

“Missing #microbes” are a factor in the development of chronic #inflammatory disease 👉 But personally, I’m more concerned about the fact that many aspects of modern living are driving a rise in “missing #immunity” and the consequent survival of “additional persistent #pathogens
Here’s an example 👉 #Formula feeding is often associated w/ increased chronic #disease incidence☝️ Meanwhile, #breast milk has a #microbiome, but is ALSO filled w/ antimicrobial compounds + metabolites that play a key role in the immune’s system’s ability to manage #infection
This team found that interactions b/t neonatal #saliva and #breast milk released #antimicrobial compounds including H202☝️These compounds inhibited growth of a range of human pathogens: nature.com/articles/s4159… ImageImageImage
