Although I expect regular iodine solutions or tinctures will deactivate coronavirus at time you apply it, I am not sure if they will have a...
One major route of transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus is via touching your mouth, nose or eyes after your hands have been in contact with...
In which case, I guess the calculation will provide a minimum figure for the number infected.
I found the mathematics of engineer Tomas Pueyo very interesting: he proposes a good method of calculating the number of infected people, simply...
Zoonotic I think is the word you mean. My Google-fu must be strong today, as I managed to find the opposite term: anthroponotic.
It's possible prior IBS might help set the stage for ME/CFS. ME/CFS is usually triggered after a viral infection. Perhaps if that virus meets an...
Maybe I misinterpreted the paper. I had the impression the authors were saying 65% of their IBS patients went on to develop ME/CFS (at some point...
Just realized these figures do not add up: the prevalence of IBS in the general population is estimated to be between 10% and 20%. So if 65% of...
Extraordinary study! They found that 65% of people with IBS later went on to get ME/CFS, as defined by the ICC. So this clearly shows prior IBS...
Depending on the test, "positive" can mean several things: if it was an adenovirus antibody test, positive can mean that you caught adenovirus in...
This study has been discussed perviously on ME/CFS forums. I will copy and paste what I wrote in 2015 in this post, to stimulate discussion:...
Possibly, but toxins which might make you more susceptible to viral infection may not necessarily also increase asthma or lung cancer incidence....
WHO confirms 1200 cases outside China, and 8 deaths = 0.67% death rate So the death rate outside China seems to be lower than the overall...
Yes it's around 61% of ME/CFS patients getting tested who are diagnosed positive for CCI with Dr Bolognese, 96% diagnosed positive for CCI with Dr...
Another thing which reduces the acquisition of respiratory infections is simple water gargling: see this study. So when you get back home,...
Yes, that occurred to me too. In that respect, even a simple surgical mask might be useful. But I was thinking of another strategy to prevent...
Interesting considerations, @Graham. One thought: perhaps the incidence figures might be exaggerated because of the phenomenon of post-viral...
Because of a shortage and thus the high cost of face masks. You may want to wear a fresh mask daily, but you might not be able to get hold of them...
Well the doctor in China said using alcohol to disinfect a mask was viable, in the article I linked to earlier: Face masks can be used repeatedly...
I appreciate it has not been tested, but that does not mean it will not work. Though I take your point about the alcohol perhaps not reaching all...
