Free 5-minute testing in every home & workplace
Sounds like a dream? It is. You can get covid-tested in your home today for $400 per visit. This is a disgrace. Universal self-testing should be provided free of charge by all governments. Wouldn't you like to know any time of the day or night whether or not you are contagious? Would that not ease your mind and help you keep others safe? Would that not have prevented all the deaths and disruptions had it been in place back in December or January?
A graduate student was fooling around in his University of Illinois laboratory recently and came up with a cheap paper-based electrochemical sensor that can detect covid in less than five minutes. Here is the report.
Covid nearly three times deadlier than seasonal flu
This report compares the death rate for people hospitalized with the seasonal flu and people hospitalized with covid.
Covid is also between 200 and 300 times more contagious than seasonal flu. This is why we wear masks indoors and practice distancing indoors and outdoors.
Any new strains of the virus will probably be more contagious but not more deadly, according to the latest reports.
What makes hard workouts so effective?
This Norwegian report describes in biomechanical detail how strenuous aerobic workouts strengthen the heart far better than moderate workouts.
Climbing four flights of stairs in less than a minute indicates good heart health, according to new research from the European Society for Cardiology. If you can't do this, you need "interval training" which starts you at your current level of fitness and gradually moves you up the ladder in the shortest amount of time.
Global herd immunity is around the corner
A recent Australian study shows that covid immunity, whether from a previous infection or from one of the many vaccines now being implemented, will furnish long-lasting immunity to the virus. Which means an end to the pandemic this year, 2021.
If you believe your immune system to be vulnerable, I would urge you to get vaccinated.
Covid home care
The vast majority of covid infections are resolved without hospital care. Unless breathing becomes a serious issue, people merely self-quarantine at home.
In the first few days of infection, the Chinese herbal remedy Ganmao Ling is still the best thing on the planet. It facilitates the process of expelling the invader. You can order this wonder formula online. Keep it on hand.
Nothing you swallow will directly strengthen your immune system. This is especially true once you are infected. If anything, it will only strengthen the virus. Fasting gives your body a chance to marshal its forces to fight the invader. Do not fall for the food industry advising you to "eat to keep up your strength." Your energy will come from sleep and rest. Contact me for details.
Challenges of fusing robotics and neuroscience
A research team led by Professor Gordon Cheng from the Technical University of Munich wants to take the fusion of neuroscience and robotics to the next level.
"The idea behind this," says Professor Cheng, "is that the coupling between the brain and the machine should work in a way where the brain thinks of the machine as an extension of the body."
