"And there is the possibility that auto-recovery is possible within these first couple of weeks to months' time. So when we talk about the Long Covid a few people claim that they were sick for a couple of months, then all of a sudden they did yoga and all the other activities and they are all fine now. So they claim that this is all in the head and things like that. So we say that there is a biological mechanism to explain if there is involvement of these lytic viruses which tend to become latent. So... the body needs some amount of time to make the viruses back to latency again. And this is the time when auto-recovery is possible. But if damage goes to the chronic illness part, then you see all the subsequent events like the fatigue, [???] cell dysfunction and other things..."
next they will be subjecting the poor animals to childhood abuse/trauma, then making sure they are 'over achievers' by observing how industrious they are on the wheel, or paper shredding, and giving them some kind of virus just incase.Perhaps i am wrong about this specific research. But every other animal model of CFS i ever saw was utterly stupid.... believing you can give ME/CFS to animals by exhausting them. As if CFS were exhaustion! So i certainly hope he's not going to fall into that trap.
Surely not.... but nothing would surprise me these days!
how about some tiny mouse shopping bags, or standing on a paper sheet and squeaking stop in mouse.
At about six minutes into the third and final video, Dr Prusty explains that the reason he would go to a mouse model is that the process of creating natural IGM in humans is not understood very well at all (“a black box“) and is much better characterized and understood in mouse models.
Yes but it is also significantly different in mice. They have a different range of immunoglobulin classes. Human natural antibodies are actually pretty well characterised in certain respects. That includes a specific VH4 gene called VH4.34 that mice would not have.
