“These case reports point to a possible link between SARS-CoV-2 viral infection and acute appendicitis in children and underscore the need for testing for the virus in children who present with severe gastrointestinal symptoms. Link to full report.”

“Then, using an in vitro model of the blood-brain barrier, they assessed the effects of exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, the primary infectious particle on the virus. They found that exposure to the spike protein impaired blood-brain barrier function and integrity.”

“It contains the genetic instructions for synthesis of a single viral protein that stimulates the immune system to make antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. mRNA vaccine technology allows rapid scaling of vaccine production and facilitates modification if the virus mutates significantly.”

“In experiments on mice, the stem cells were genetically engineered to produce and secrete toxins which kill brain tumors, without killing normal cells or themselves.”

“Evidence indicates that immunity following infection with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, lasts as long as 11 months. Questions remain, however, regarding the duration of immunity elicited by mRNA vaccines against the virus.”

“A recent study indicates that SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, replicates in the throat, increasing its transmissibility. The authors of the study followed nine patients who presented with symptoms of COVID-19.”

“A subset of 714 household members underwent serological testing for the presence of antibodies to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the virus that causes COVID-19. They analyzed the data using mathematical modeling.”

“For example, a 6-month treatment course of interferon-alpha therapy for chronic hepatitis C virus infection causes depression in approximately 30% of patients. Omega-3 fatty acids have a long list of health benefits, including lowering the risk of heart disease and reducing triglyceride levels.”
