93 – Vaccine and Symptoms Covid-19.

Coronavirus which started way back in December in Wuhan province of China and now spread across the world. Except some of the countries which restricted the virus and implemented Train, Test, Isolate method, is the only one who succeeded.

Doctors, M.D, Virologist, researchers are still not able to learn everything about the virus, its mutation, and how to cure it. The world is still relying on the data which China is providing but what’s alarming is some people who recovered after battling the coronavirus are still facing some of the severe symptoms.

Various studies on different patients from different countries suggest that recovering from the Covid19 won’t be enough, as the story gets more complicated and recovered patients might going to face some long term complications. Many hospitalized patients experiencing blood clots, strokes, lung scarring, and heart damage, One study from Wuhan in January found that 12 percent of Covid-19 patients had signs of cardiovascular damage. 

New researches may reveal new complications, and the government should support and fund them because the more we learn about the virus, the better it will be to fight against it. Things aren’t going to get better anytime soon until we found a vaccine.

77 – Virus Attack

Ebola, Nipah, Sars, Coronavirus all of these deadly viruses created havoc in the past few years. While China is still fighting to curb the menace of coronavirus and quarantining the cities, issuing an advisory to the travelers and keeping an eye on the outbreak.

While we wonder about where do all these viruses come from, where is it all begun and why these viruses turned out so fatal. We can take a look back at the Ebola outbreak which created havoc in Africa 11,000 deaths were reported. Sars which is known as a severe acute respiratory syndrome, began in China in 2002 which killed 800 deaths. Coronavirus outbreaks in China which reportedly killed 1,500 people.

In all of these epidemics, one thing is common, it all comes from the animals and to be precise from the bats and it’s not the bat’s fault its the fault of us, we are the ones who are invading in their territories and consuming them. In Malaysia spreading commercial pig farms in the bat inhabited territory was the main reason for the outbreak. In Africa, bushmeat is very famous were fruitbats are hunted, sold and consumed.

Bats do appear to carry more human-killing viruses than any other animal, around 60 human infecting viruses. Guess we can love batman but not bats though.
