The patch begins to detect an immune response within 24 to 36 hours of application and is expected to effectively monitor for up to 14 days.

Key Points: 
  • The patch begins to detect an immune response within 24 to 36 hours of application and is expected to effectively monitor for up to 14 days.
  • The Diocheck patch answers one of the biggest roadblocks to halting the spread of COVID-19a simple, universal way for people to continually monitor their own immune status over an extended period of time.
  • The Diocheck patch responds to the great unknown of how many people are unintentionally widening the spread by being asymptomatic carriers, Diomics CEO Anthony Zolezzi said.
  • Widespread use of the Diocheck indicator patch will give us a simple, effective, non-invasive way to know that we are all actively protecting each other.

WASHINGTON, Aug.28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --New research suggests that children can shed SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, even if they never develop symptoms or for long after symptoms have cleared.

Key Points: 
  • WASHINGTON, Aug.28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --New research suggests that children can shed SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, even if they never develop symptoms or for long after symptoms have cleared.
  • About 22% never developed symptoms, 20% were initially asymptomatic but developed symptoms later, and 58% were symptomatic at their initial test.
  • There was also a significant spread in how long children continued to shed virus and could be potentially infectious.
  • Another is that children, a group widelythought to develop mostly mild disease that quickly passes, can retain symptoms for weeks.

Supplement May Have Reversed Positive Tests for COVID in Saliva

Of the subjects whose saliva initially tested positive for COVID elements, over 90% of those who used Phytorelief-CC saw their saliva test negative after three days the strongest results among the supplements tested.

Key Points: 
  • Of the subjects whose saliva initially tested positive for COVID elements, over 90% of those who used Phytorelief-CC saw their saliva test negative after three days the strongest results among the supplements tested.
  • As the study explains, saliva acts as a staging ground from which respiratory viruses like COVID-19 invade the lungs.
  • Attacking COVID with oral supplements may therefore represent a proactive strategy, especially for asymptomatic carriers like those in the study, though more research is warranted.
  • According to the study, virucidal supplements have a potential role in reducing the spread of COVID-19 in the absence of a vaccine.
