Corona is itself the enemy of Corona – A research report…

The coronavirus named SARS-CoV-2 is behind the Covid-19 epidemic that the whole world is battling for the last two years. However, apart from this, there are many types of coronavirus present in the environment, which are not fatal for us.  According to scientists from Imperial College London, the common cold caused by these viruses increases immunity against Covid-19 in our body by means of common-cold coronavirus present in nature increases immunity against Covid-19. 

Common Cold Coronavirus makes T-cells in the body:  In this research published in the journal Nature Communications, scientists have found that the Common Cold Coronavirus is effective in producing antibodies to fight SARS-CoV-2 inside us.  They increase the number of T-cells in our body. T-cells are cells that fight and kill viruses. 

How T-cells work: T cells cannot stop you from getting infected, but after infection, they kill the virus as soon as it reaches inside the body. Along with this, they also help in making antibodies in the body by working with other cells. The government of South Africa has defeated Omicron by speeding up vaccinations to strengthen people's T-cells. 

Similar research has been done before:  In earlier research, scientists had found that T-cells formed in the body due to another coronavirus recognize SARS-CoV-2. Now this research shows that after being identified, these T-cells also increase our immunity against SARS-CoV-2. 

The universal vaccine can be made: Scientists believe that this research can open the door to making a universal vaccine against the coronavirus. This vaccine will not only fight SARS-CoV-2 but will also protect us from other coronaviruses present in nature. Also, deadly corona variants like Omicron and Delta will also not be able to survive by vaccinating with universal vaccines.

New variant spreads 70 times faster in the body than Delta, first attack on respiratory tract- a new research on Omicron….

A surprising research has come about the new variant of Corona, Omicron. Scientists from the University of Hong Kong have revealed that the Omicron variant spreads 70 times faster inside the body than the original form of the corona (SARS-CoV-2) and the delta variant. It reaches the lungs through the bronchi of humans. However, the risk of causing more lung damage from this is less than the previous variants. 

Researchers from the University of Hong Kong performed a study on Omicron patients. Research has found that Omicron attacks the human respiratory tract. This is the way to reach the lungs. Within just 24 hours, Omicron had rapidly multiplied here. It was 70 times faster than the original form of Corona and the Delta variant. 

Research has also shown that the Omicron variant does not cause much damage to the lungs. Its effect on the respiratory system is 10 times less than the other variants. This reduces the risk of getting serious diseases. According to Professor Michael Chan Chi-wai, even though Omicron is not very deadly, the speed of spreading its infection can disturb people. The danger of causing death due to this is not over yet. Michael says it could dodge existing vaccines. 

What are the symptoms of Omicron: Some of the symptoms of the Omicron variant identified in South Africa are similar to the original form of the corona. Patients complain of dry cough, itchy throat, muscle pain, fatigue, headache, and fever. Also, the first symptom of Omicron is the absence of a smell and test. 

How to protect ourselves against Omicron: Experts around the world are emphasizing vaccination to fight corona. Even though Omicron is a new variant, the methods to protect against it are old. This includes wearing a mask, practicing social distancing, avoiding crowded places, maintaining good ventilation, and washing hands frequently.
