Antibodies and T- cells are produced in response to viral infections and immunizations, and they are specific to the protein sequences of each virus. The immune system “reads” those protein sequences during infections and immunizations and makes particular antibodies and T cells specific to them. The immune system also retains the information in its memory….
I have been taking zinc tablets since my days in the emergency room. In all 18 years, I never took a sick day off despite people accidentally coughing in my face when I checked their throats. It is particularly valuable during winter when other upper respiratory viruses are in season. Zinc is part of the…
I received this question from GB, a reader. Dr. Santiano – thank you for your very helpful piece on the Bristol UK study about the impact of spike proteins on the heart. While you’ve explained clearly how that can happen from vaccination, why is this impact not so apparent from the coronavirus itself? If the…
Recently, I gave a ride to a family member from a train terminal. She just traveled internationally. Airline passengers are required to be tested by PCR 24 hours before boarding. She had the PCR test done, but the results were unavailable when she was about to board her flight. The delay is the result of…
An athlete’s muscles need a lot of oxygen when they’re playing, and the heart has to pump more blood to meet the oxygen demand, and it has to beat faster. The rapid heart rate also increases the heart muscles’ oxygen need, and the heart’s blood vessels have to dilate to allow more blood to flow through….
Melatonin has many uses for prevention and treatment against covid-19. It is included in the Front Line Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance protocols for COVID-19. That’s because melatonin has anti-viral, anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects against COVID-19. You can read about them at Melatonin’s Multiple Actions Against COVID-19. A new study that is still in preprint, Melatonin…
This article lists the effectiveness of rapid antigen tests. Antigen tests detect proteins, while PCR test identifies molecules or strands of nucleotides. The benefit of antigen tests is that they can be done at home and have the results in minutes. Not all tests are 100% accurate in detecting viruses’ true presence or absence of…
This article discusses the use of nasal rinsing and deep gargle to prevent respiratory infections.
This article is by Margaret Menge and was initially posted in The Center Square, Indiana. It confirms research discussed in Vaccine-induced deaths in the US and Europe are way higher than the CDC reports! I also posted verification at the end. Links and emphasis added. (The Center Square) – The head of Indianapolis-based insurance company …
What is Antibody-Dependent Enhancement, and why should you care Antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) results in severe disease that may result from previous vaccinations or infections with coronavirus. Early treatment of variants, including the Omicron, prevents ADE from happening. The FDA fully approved the Comirnaty and not the Pfizer-BioNTech Vaccine How to get Ivermectin Lot Numbers of…
The Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) is currently the dominant variant of concern of SARS-CoV-2. Its mutations confer it higher contagiousness but less disease. Some people can still be hospitalized with an Omicron infection, but who? That question is answered by a South African study released yesterday by the Journal of American Medical Association. The study is…
July 9, 2022 update: The FLCCC Early Treatment Protocol is now The FLCCC I-CARE Early COVID Treatment Protocol This article is updated with new information on Dec. 31, 2021. The Omicron is more infectious but less deadly than the Delta variant. This protocol should also work for the Omicron variant of the SARS-CoV-2. Why treat…
Update July 14, 2022: The featured study in this article is now published in Clinical and Translational Medicine. A preprint study from Hong Kong University shows that an Omicron infection elicits an immune response against several SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern. As a snapshot, the study involved two previously vaccinated people who had an omicron infection….
Bromhexine is an over-the-counter drug that is recommended to dissolve mucus. It has several brand names worldwide that can be found at this link. c19bromhexine.com gathers medical studies about the use of bromhexine for COVID-19 and presents them together in a meta-analysis. The table below is from c19bromhexine.com and presents five studies using bromhexine for…
The preprint study, COVID vaccination, and age-stratified all-cause mortality risk showed that the CDC estimates of vaccine-induced fatality rates (VFR) of 0.002% are underreported by a factor of 20. Spiro Pantazatos from Columbia University and Herve Seligmann, an independent researcher with 194 publications, made the study. Snapshot COVID shots increase deaths from all causes 0-5 weeks…
The Syrian golden hamster is used for COVID-19 research. That’s because its reaction to SARS-CoV-2 is similar to humans. Early in the pandemic, Hong Kong University investigated the effects of the SARS-CoV-2 on Syrian golden hamsters. It concluded that hamsters are an essential tool for studying transmission, pathogenesis, treatment, and vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. Since then,…
What is amyloid? Amyloids are tube-like proteins that are small in size. About 7-13 nanometers in diameter. One centimeter is 10,000,000 nanometers. One inch is 25,400,000 nanometers. Amyloid and diseases Amyloids are linked to diseases. The most well-known condition associated with amyloid protein accumulation is Alzheimer’s disease, where progressive memory loss occurs. Amyloids are seen…
What type of COVID shot results in the most myocarditis? What are the age and sex affected? These are the question answered by scientists from different institutions in the UK including Oxford University, King’s College London, and the British Heart Foundation Centre of Research Excellence. It was published yesterday as a preprint as Risk of…
Can a booster shot stop the omicron variant? That is is the question answered by this paper. This research is essential because it is a clinical investigation, and what happened to people is better than a laboratory simulation between antibodies and pseudotyped (assembled) viruses. That’s because there is more to the immune system than measuring…
“Out of life’s school of war—what doesn’t kill me, makes me stronger.” – Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols, The mutations in the omicron variant allow it to escape the immune response, but its entry into the lung cells becomes impaired. This explains the higher transmission but lower mortality rates in South Africa. The higher…
