Study Suggests Link Between Sleep Supplement and COVID-19
Published: Dec 22, 2020
By Krystle Vermes

A study published in the journal Cell Discovery back in March initially suggested that melatonin – and repurposing existing medicines in general – may be the key to regulating COVID-19 within the body. Now, one of the study’s authors has found that other researchers around the globe have come up with similar theories, according to The Atlantic.

Feixiong Cheng, who published the initial research at the beginning of the outbreak, heard from other scientists that there might be something to his hunch. They all noted that, in addition to melatonin’s effects on sleep, it plays a critical role in calibrating the immune system. Its role as a moderator may lead to it one day protecting the body from going haywire when exposed to disease.

A study published as recently as November took a closer look at the theory. People who took melatonin seemed to have significantly lower odds of developing COVID-19, and other researchers started to notice a pattern. At the moment, eight clinical trials are currently being carried out to determine if the link between melatonin and the novel coronavirus is legitimate.

If it turns out that melatonin is beneficial, it would already be widely available in the U.S. as an over-the-counter dietary supplement, and people could begin taking it as soon as possible. However, Cheng does not recommend this route, acknowledging that this could simply be a spurious correlation.

Vicks has a new product which they ADVERTISE as a sleep aid.

but they NAMED it, "immune".

ingredients -
elderberry (Quercetin & possibly other bio-flavonoids, one of the 2 main nutritional supplements that stop Covid19 by reducing the viral replication rate)
Zinc
Melatonin

Melatonin is a secondary nutrient that HELPS steer blood chemistry so it can't become hypercoagulable.

GOOD NEWS FOR SMOKERS -
Both Nicotine AND Nitric Oxide help to reduce blood coagulation, the chance of strokes etc. that happens with Covid19.

The Netherlands only has 17m people and chose the herd immunity approach.

Has to do not many people listen and still think its just the flu.We're now in a stricter lockdown many shops, restaurants are closed, only take away, supermarkets, pharmacies, drugstores are open and max 3 people for a visit, but read yesterday that restaurant owners who started a take away for christmas meals, had to prepare meals for 18 persons at one location, so probably i'll not be surprised if we go soon to the 15.000 new cases per day.
In the meanwhile i see also an increase in ICU cases.Nurses and doctors making overtime.

We have the same thing here, and our governor's inviting people to the state
He told us not to worry we still have plenty of beds and threatened the hospitals to quit complaining or he would forbid elective surgeries

Got an colonoscopy it was an assembly line just before some places stopped doing outpatient...no cancer or polyps but moderate Diverticulitis

Diverticulitis is the infection or inflammation of pouches that can form in your intestines. These pouches are called diverticula. The pouches generally aren't harmful. They can show up anywhere in your intestines. If you have them, it's called diverticulosis

In about 95 out of 100 people, uncomplicated diverticulitis goes away on its own within a week. In about 5 out of 100 people, the symptoms stay and treatment is needed. Surgery is only rarely necessary

vaccines rolling out...

God have mercy on us...

Wow it does take a true certified buffoon in public office, to survive a virus infection, yet go right back to the same reckless disregard for common sense that brought about the initial infection. Perhaps the illness and its milder symptoms were pleasurable to this individual.

One wonders whether such public officials were elected into office, or got there on account of being a third cousin to the local sheriff.

Do you know where the vast majority of infections come from?
I’ll give you a few clues...It’s not the bar, or the restaurant, or the church.
You guys run on about following the science and then you pay no attention to what the data tells us.
