Not sealed, not ideal considering aerosols, but better than getting virus blown directly into the conjunctiva
Covid Era Info Meta-Thread 🧵
Been meaning to do this for a minute, so here's a collection of all my threads to date on masking, testing, and post-COVID+ care information.
Daily and weekly data roundups not included due to being QRT chains rather than threading that info.
Effects of Basic Amino Acids and Their Derivatives on SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza-A Virus Infection The effects of arginine and lysine on infection of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza A virus: "lysine and its ester derivative can efficiently block infection of both viruses in vitro. Furthermore, the arginine ester derivative caused a significant boost in virus infection."
20-week study of multi-component over-the-counter “core formulation” regimen used in a multiply exposed, high risk population: "The OTC core supplementation formulations used include zinc and zinc ionophores; vitamins C, D3 and E; and l-lysine."
Possibly relevant re: increased DVT post-Covid infection. Hat-tip @reverseyourmind
"A combination of pycnogenol, and nattokinase, is proving effective for preventing deep vein thrombosis and leg edema during prolonged air travel."
"But experts say people who have had COVID-19 should be aware of these potential risks:
Heart disease and stroke
A study published in Nature Medicine in February concluded the risk of heart problems one year after COVID-19 infection is 'substantial.'"
"Paxlovid is contraindicated with drugs that are highly dependent on CYP3A for clearance and for which elevated concentrations are associated with serious and/or life-threatening reactions"
See full list:
Monitor your blood 02 even in "mild" case: Normal blood oxygen: 95% - 100% Below 92%: cause for concern.
"Incredibly, people with 'happy hypoxia' sometimes even have blood oxygen levels so low as to be 'incompatible with life' but feel no ill effects."
