COVID-19 UPDATE: September 24, 2021

Blog

There is a lot going on. Here is your COVID-19 update for September 24, 2021. The United States deaths are more than the 1918 Flu, which originated in the spring from chickens (genes of avian). The Delta variant is more transmissible than the Spanish flu. The Spanish flu of the 1918 pandemic was more deadly than the COVID-19 Delta variant. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WV3NSwtuNxM Vaccine Hesitancy For various reasons, there are still people who do not want to get vaccinated. Some reasons are personal, political, and some have to do with misinformation and health illiteracy. Whatever the case may be, research has shown that those who do not take the COVID-19 vaccine, are at high risk of hospitalization and death.

Pick Your COVID-19 Risk

Blog

Tonya L. Breaux-Shropshire, PhD, MPH, RN Pick your COVID-19 risk. Medical expert academics have predicted that COVID-19 will be endemic at least for several seasons. That essentially means that eventually, just about everyone will get infected with the COVID-19 virus. They think this is happening due to the highly infectious Delta variant and our inability to reach herd immunity. According to Dr. Andrew Pollard, herd immunity is "impossible" because people who are vaccinated could still spread the virus. I know, a COVID-19 endemic sounds like bad news, and this news is hard to believe. Even worst is that Dr. Pollard said there are likely new variants of concern on the rise. The new variants will likely be just as transmissible or more transmissible than COVID-19 Delta. However, the good news…

Boosters and COVID-19 Surge

Blog

Tonya L. Breaux-Shropshire, PhD, MPH Boosters and COVID-19 Delta Surge. A COVID-19 booster is an additional shot or jab of the same brand vaccine that completed your vaccination 8-12 months after the second shot. Mixing and matching of vaccines are not supported by current research findings, but the results from the several trials are pending. Pfizer, once approved will be in line for the booster, but only time will tell if Moderna will be ready, according to Dr. Anthony Fauci. Confusion About Boosters One week ago, medical and public health experts said that vaccines are still providing strong protection against hospitalization and death. After assuring everyone that a booster is not yet needed, we now have some new evidence. New research findings have shown that COVID-19 vaccines are not providing…

COVID Anecdotal Treatment Update

Blog

Vaccines do not treat COVID-19 but effectively prevent the likelihood of severe COVID symptoms, hospitalization, and death. Currently, there is no official COVID treatment for mild to moderate COVID-19. However, many people have benefited from repurposed drugs with good anecdotal results, according to some. Want to know more? See the podcast below for details. COVID-19 Vaccine Approval Dr. Anthony Fauci suspects that the Food and Drug Administration will give the Pfizer vaccine full approval within the next couple of weeks. The Moderna vaccine will likely be approved shortly afterward. The full support of the vaccines might improve the public's trust in vaccine safety while threatening vaccine misuse. For example, unless you are immunocompromised, boosters are not recommended, which free up more vaccines for others. Experts are concerned that removing the…

How to Reduce Your Risk for the Delta Variant

Blog

It is obvious that the existence of COVID-19 anywhere is a threat to COVID-19 everywhere. In the United States (US), cases are increasing but testing doesn't seem to be keeping up.

COVID-19 Is On the Rise As We Head Towards Herd Immunity

Blog

COVID-19 Delta variant is on the rise as we head to herd immunity in the United States. The Delta variant is a variation of COVID-19 that originated in India (B.1.67.2), spread to dominance in the United Kingdom, and now it's near dominant in the United States. [video width="1920" height="1080" mp4="https://hypertensionresistanttotreatment.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/yt.m4afinal-new.mp4"][/video] This Delta variant is more transmissible, which means that it can spread more easily than any other type of COVID-19 virus. However, we are not yet seeing that it is more deadly, perhaps due to the fact that younger people are getting the Delta variant than people older than 50 years old. Keep in mind we don't know a lot about this virus. Some experts have observed that the vaccines might decline effectiveness at approximately between 6-8 months. Most people…
