It might be based on that, indeed. But I think that begs quite a lot of questions. How do you test a vaccine unless you in the middle of spreading...
Western governments would do well to take note of this and stop messing about with modelling.
Except that that should be at least 4 years not 18 months. With the uncertain behaviour of the virus and periods of cool off it might be more like...
I think this Ferguson chap at Imperial is still in cloud cuckoo land. He has just said: Ferguson says that, under the policies that were in force...
This is very interesting. Staff in China dealing with COVID didn’t want psychological intervention, they asked for more rest without interruption...
I had a brief look. I don't think this is consistent with what we know. The curves we have seen would be different if we are getting near to...
Absolutely. If past presidents of royal colleges are not up to going back to medicine then they should volunteer as kitchen skivvies or barmaids.
Yes I think that means that neutrophilic is an indicator that the body has already got into a serious systemic reaction phase - similarly LDH and...
I doubt this was a dosage problem. You can almost certainly eat a gram of chloroquine without any symptoms. I suspect this fish treatment had...
I am not sure about that. Neutrophilia is not an abnormal condition. It is a normal response to bacterial infection. It may mean that people who...
They had a dedicated project for an emergency information app a few years back and never bothered to put it into practice. Why they cannot just...
Exactly, this is pretty much what I had worked out - maybe these factors: 1. Lots of people together indoors milling about and talking. 2....
The numbers are going to be small for the foreseeable future (maybe 1/250), but perhaps not insignificant. We have already had a medic saying they...
There are loose ends but my suspicion is that after the inevitable lag of 10-20 days numbers will start coming down quite quickly. In the meantime...
Copied from the Worldwide spread and control thread Colchicine. It blocks microtubular assembly and phagocyte motility. It might possibly block...
I still get the feeling that those who are critical, like the Guardian and even Pueyot, are thinking in terms of slowing rather than eradicating....
The coronavirus epidemic in the UK will last until next spring and could lead to 7.9 million people being hospitalised, a secret Public Health...
I have no idea really. Although the Hammer and Dance piece is well researched there is nothing in it that any immunologist with common sense would...
From what I can glean from the recent paper on immunodeficiency this list is actually of the wrong conditions. Immunodeficiency does not seem to...
Not a lot. The point in the article is valid. I think flu has a reservoir outside humans (maybe ducks) that allows it to mutate and reinfect...
