      Our bodies are incredibly resilient. People live for years with all sorts of diseases and don't realize it. The problem with this one is we have zero knowledge of its long-term effects, but it's slowly becoming clear that they will be varied and bad.

      Agree. I've had 5 days of dry cough and mild breathing problems in spike allergy season. Have I had covid? Probably, because before my 5 "weird" days, my oldest daughter was really sick. This was back in March and my daughter had 'the flu' with fever, dry cough, hard to breathe and headache. It took her three times the period she'd been sick to get better. And in this time she lost her sense of smell.
      I really hope that as many as possible go through this virus with mild symptoms and that our bodies remember and can pick up the fight when exposed again.
      Only half of 2020 has passed and throughout of my life I've experienced some sh!t, but this year is on the verge of being erased. Because so far 2020 kind of s÷cks.
      I wish you all good health and mild symptoms.

    • @IanGrams
      @IanGrams 4 года назад +6

      ​@@mayeramschelrothschild3126 why would Dr. Mike need to "debate" a virologist? I've not seen him say anything in videos that go against what virologists are saying so that sure would make for a boring debate.
      Also apparently you subscribe to Del Bigtree who has zero medical training but runs the anti-vaxination group Informed Consent Action Network, who produced the film Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe based on thediscredited views of Andrew Wakefield on an alleged connection between vaccines and autism.
      "During the COVID-19 pandemic, Bigtree used the webcast to propagate a number of conspiracy theories, such as the one postulating that the virus responsible was made in a laboratory by the pharmaceutical industry. Going against the advice of health authorities, he recommended to his audience not to wear mask, to refuse the vaccine when it would be developed and to actually make efforts to infect themselves with the virus."
      So I guess you're right, the blind sure are leading the blind. Yet they appear to think they're the only ones who can see.

    • @mayeramschelrothschild3126
      @mayeramschelrothschild3126 4 года назад

      Ian Grams Everything he is saying is going along with scientific consensus. Scientific consensus is much different than the scientific method. The scientific method contradicts mostly everything he states as being “universal truths” in the medical community. Vaccines are not safe and effective. Viruses do not cause disease. And masks certainly do not help anything, other than putting the wearer into a state of hypoxia. Which explains why all the mask wearers have such a low IQ and need other “experts” to put thoughts in their head. Let me ask you this, can you show me ONE scientific study that has filtered, isolated, purified and cultured a virus - in the history of virology? Furthermore, can you show me ONE study that shows a virus is transmittable from one person to another, via culturing the virus in healthy cells and seeing it infect others - or through consistent spreading and symptomatic expressions? I can save you some time, none of that has ever been done in the history of virology. Go research the experiments done during the 1918 “flu” if you don’t believe me, they attempted to get hundreds sick through “infected” cultures - not a single person got sick. Do you know who Kary Mullis is? He invented the rt-PCR test that’s being used to diagnose everyone, maybe go watch his special on ABC news about the massive HIV scandal, fraud and coverup. Guess who was the head of research on HIV? Fauci. The same man perpetuating this myth of a virus that’s never been proven to exist through the scientific method, which really isn’t asking much and is not costly in respect to other processes they are using. The reason they don’t use the scientific method is because the scientific method shows through experimentation and experience that viruses do not exist, and certainly don’t cause disease. Viruses are exosomes. Toxicities cause disease. And my god are there plenty of toxicities nowadays - industrial waste chemical “medicine” is ripe with them.

    The high degree of asymptomatic cases is why testing and contact tracing are so important. Basically, if you test positive (even if you didn't have any symptoms) they work through the web of your connections/life to find all the people you've been in contact with and test them. The problem with that is 1. you need a ridiculous amount of testing capacity to be able to test so many people so often and 2. there are a lot of privacy concerns with contact tracing and you many people may not want the government tracking their lives so closely (especially in countries with let's so, fewer civil rights)

    I tested positive for the virus early July. With me, I never had a fever but I did have a persistent dry cough, yet I took that as my allergies. Then there was a little bit more confusion and fatigue than normal but I took that as my 'fog' that comes in and the fatigues from my medications and having fibromyalgia. Then I had on and off chest pain, but during that time I also had cysts on my breasts that had become larger. Then I had to take a Covid test due to an upcoming surgery and that's when I found out I was positive. For the past few weeks I have been doing ok except for the chest pains. After I spoke to my doctor about it she told me to start taking advil to help with the inflammation. The day after I started taking it my chest pain subsided (like today!). However, now I don't know if I am still contagious or not and my kids have had to stay in other places while I've been in isolation. I could hardly find anything on answers to whether I was still contagious or not. I mean what if my recent test comes back positive again, does that still mean I am contagious after over 3 weeks of first test? It's definitely been frustrating trying to find solid information with what to do when you are infected. I am really grateful though that my cough and chest pains are gone, I was really getting scared. I tell you, for those who think this is a political scheme or hoax, you just wait till it hits you or your family members. Trust me, you will regret not wearing your mask and social distancing.

    Antibody levels are not a good indicator of immunity. They drop off after infection, as was explained here, but long-term immunity is usually realised by memory T and B cells. These are what stay behind. When they encounter the pathogen they were produced for, they trigger an immune response, which then produces antibodies in B cells. Antibodies alone just floating about in the body basically make immunity random, because they may or may not be at the location they need to be at the time of infection.

I didn't do anything but stay home and rest. I didn't take any remedies or treatments or called a doctor. Just stayed home and rest. Weeks later, I slowly recover and no longer experienced anything.

    We need more T cell studies. Some have been released as pre-prints and results seem to be showing that T cell responses appear to be more enduring indicating a certain level of immunity. More that a 2nd infection would be milder rather than full sterilising immunity which is unlikely in the context of coronaviruses where duration of immunity appears to be correlating with severity of disease.

      As a past employee/researcher at NIH, I know for a fact that MASSIVE white cell studies have been done, and are still being done, with reference this disease and many others like cancer. As a fact, they were studying monoclonal antibodies to see if they could fight Covid. Unfortunately, not everything is aired or published because studies of this nature are lengthy and subject to harsh guidelines and scrutiny. Consider all of the stuff that has bombarded us concerning this infection. Researchers are trying to be careful and optimistic without giving false hope unless the data is verified MULTIPLE times to verify consistent results.

Antibody titres have been found to be higher in those with severe disease. Pessimistic view is a contributory factor to disease severity, more optimistic view is that this reflects more viral replication. From what I can gather many people have pretty much cleared the virus when disease is severe and it is an immune system 'dysfunction' causing widespread inflammation. I'm no expert, but from what I can gather is that monoclonal antibodies would be most beneficial in early stages of infection. They are very expensive with current technology to produce and have a short half life? They might be a useful treatment in cases where the elderly or vulnerable are diagnosed early in their infection.
      There are alot of published papers and many of them, even by the well known institutes, seem to be rushed and of a lower quality than they would typically produce. Others are just plain poor quality.

      Covid-19 can not have a vaccine unless they reinvented vaccines from the ground up. The nonsense about vaccines for Covid-19 is Just that, Nonsense.
      Covid-19 is a Corona Virus. The same type of Virus as the common cold.
      The common cold has killed 80,000 people a year, or more, every year, for over 200 years. Yet, despite this they still can't cure it because of the traits of the Virus.
      The same traits Covid-19 has, thus Covid-19 can't actually get a vaccine, ever.
      Any vaccine they make would be nothing but a placebo, or only immunize you to one strain. Thus, it would be completely useless.
      Alternatively, it would require a brand new vaccine every 20 days or more just based on the number of strains we know already exist in just over 12 months. Namely, at minimum 16 in America alone.
      As they can't get any working vaccine in over 12 months if they finally say they have one it would be a lie unless they completely reinvented the way they worked.
      As of now we would need no less than 16 different vaccines for Covid-19 as well as a brand new one every 20 days. This would then have to be sustainable forever.
      That Mind you is the minimum.
      For the Cold they opt to treat the symptoms because it isn't that deadly.
      Here are the traits of a Corona Virus;
      1. It is super contagious.
      2. It is very quick to mutate especially when it is under siege.
      Namely, exactly what we are doing with it. Hence why there is already more than 16 strains in America alone.
      3. It is not very deadly.
      To prove this Point of Covid-19 not being very deadly, I will use the official numbers as of the moment of this post for America because America is as bad as all of the EU combined.
      15,159,529 Total cases
      288,906 Total deaths.
      To find out what the mortality rate is you would divide the second number by the first and move the Decimal point 2 spaces to the left for the %
      This puts the Mortality rate at Just under 2%
      1.9% to be exact
      That is just above the normal common cold
      At 1.3%
      The only Risk that Covid-19 poses that the Normal Common cold hasn't already posed for over 200 years is the slightly higher risk of secondary infection due to a slightly higher load on the immune system.
      In short, as long as you treat it like the common cold then you are likely fine even if you get it.
      !. boost your immune system. IE Vitamin D and Vitamin C.
      2. Treat the symptoms.
      3. Then stay home if you are sick and get bed rest and eat chicken noodle soup.
      You stay home and get bed rest so you can fight it off and So that you don't get sick with something that isn't Covid-19 while you have Covid-19.
      Covid-19 is Barely more dangerous than the Normal Common Cold.
      In fact this panic and nonsense actually makes the risk it poses higher for a number of reasons.
      1. It mutates faster when under siege.
      2. Less outside = less vitamin D, thus weaker immune system
      3. The fact people are panicked they are not thinking clearly thus are acting in a way more likely to spread the virus not less likely.
      For just one example of us not thinking clearly leading to us actively increasing the spread.
      We keep using Anti-Bacterial hand sanitizer to kill A Virus.
      All While That doesn't kill viruses and it says it right on the Label.
      "Usable for killing Bacteria on the hands."
      A Virus is NOT A Bacteria.
      People who tell you otherwise would Fail a middle school level biology class.
      For a virus you would use soap and water. This is something you can acquire in any bathroom in most nations. This is also something we learned in Elementary school.
      The worst part is this is something that America's Top doctors have clearly Proven they Don't know with their own words.
      Namely, Jerome Adams Surgeon General of the United States and Anthony Fauci American Doctor and high ranking member of the WHO.
      They were the Idiots who started the Hand sanitizer nonsense, when we should be using soap and water.
      Thus, they have both Proven that they are not capable of properly passing middle school level biology let alone capable of practicing medicine.
      Any illness can be a threat if we do what amounts to running around like headless chickens, and Not even our top doctors are capable of a middle school level understanding of Medical science.
      We should deal with this smart Not panic like we did with every illness until now.
      This is what Normal people can actually do that would actually work;
      1. Wash your hands with soap and water regularly. NOT Hand sanitizer.
      2. Do not touch your face after touching a potentially infected surface until you wash your hands.
      3. Give people an arms length personal space.
      4. get lots of vitamin D and Vitamin C. That means carrots, oranges, sun, milk and cheese
      5 If you get sick stay home and get bed rest.
      6. Treat the symptoms with the proper medication. Anti Fever medication for fever. Cough medication for cough, and so on.
      7. Don't cough on people.
      8. Some exercise to be healthier so you can more easily fight off illnesses.
      9. Don't Panic!
      10. A mask perhaps.
      However, if even most people could do even some of the before mentioned 8 we likely wouldn't need them. Masks are only needed as an anti-idiot measure.
      To pretend other wise shows you don't know the first thing about illnesses, nor history.
      Sadly, most of our nation including most of our doctors are apparently total idiots. So for now a mask helps.
      These are all things we learned in elementary school.
      As for our leaders here is what they should do on top of those average people things;
      1. Fire Jerome Adams Surgeon General of the United States and Anthony Fauci American Doctor and high ranking member of the WHO.
      2. Do not leave those positions vacant.
      Actually replace them with people who could pass a middle school level biology class at the minimum.
      The prior 2 is because their advice has actively made this problem worse consistently for months. Due mainly to their clearly complete lack of basic medical knowledge.
      3. Look at this as a common cold that is 1.5x to 2x more serious, that has a somewhat Unique trait of lowering a person's immune system.
      This results in them being more at risk from other illnesses while they are sick with it, like aids does but on a lower level and for only around 2 weeks or so.
      Mainly, because that is exactly what Covid-19 is.
      4. Give up on a vaccine, It will NOT happen, unless the vaccine is completely re-invented from the ground up.
      5. Instead of a cure to prevent it as that won't happen, Come up with New effective treatments that can treat the illness or symptoms once people are sick.
      Taking a double dose of the amount of Tylenol used fighting a normal cold, to lower fever, isn't sustainable.
      Mainly, because Tylenol kills the liver.
      That is actually far more deadly long term, than Covid-19 could ever be as Liver Failure tends to have a 70% death rate vs the less than 2% from Covid-19.
      So, we need methods to deal with Covid-19 that doesn't increase the risk of death with prolonged use to 35 times the death rate of Covid-19
      6. STOP LISTENING TO THE MEDIA. They are no different than tabloids in the 1990's.
      30% of what they say is total fiction including the weather. You could flip a coin and be right more than the weather man.
      The other 70% is extremely exaggerated.
      Treat the Media like tabloids because that is exactly what they are today.

      Not all symptoms are because of the immune response. If the immune system does not respond the virus spreads into the body and causes mass organ failure, because too many cells produce viruses instead of doing their actual job.
      Asymptomatic does not necessarly mean your immune system does not respond, it can mean that the immune response is less general and more specific. It is possible, that some people have a immune memory to a virus that is close enough to this one to allow such a respons.

    The CT studies showed these asymptomatic patients had pulmonary abnormalities such as focal unilateral to diffuse bilateral ground-glass opacities which we often see rapidly progress to or co-existed with pulmonary consolidations, some resulting in central scarring of pulmonary tissue or even pulmonary fibrosis; which is usually observed in patients who have had chronic pulmonary diseases.

      I am pretty sure "death" is a symptom. Therefore the question is a contradiction in itself.
      Actually it might be breaking the "departure from normal function or feeling which is apparent to a patient" requirement. I mean, I guess if you go to bed and "never wake up", you propably did not have any symptoms. At the very least, it counts for a "clinica sign".
      Considering a lot of deaths for Covid-19 comes from your immune system drowning you or killing other important organs, it is hard to miss that. Again, unless you loose consciousness before you have time to become aware.

      Binary search has been around since about the 1940s, though it wasn't terribly useful until some improvements were made in the 1960s, though it's worth a mention that the basic idea that makes it work has been around since at least 200 BCE.

Then some days I felt good and my O2 level was up to 95. The levels would go up shortly but then drop again for several days. My guess is that some light cardio is needed with some medicated nubilizations in the evenings or as directed by the meds.

    An excellent video. I was one of those who was asymptomatic (early April). The only reason I was tested was due to the fact that others I knew had the infection. I never had any symptoms whatsoever (although there was one evening when I felt slightly flushed). I was told to self-quarantine for two weeks and I extended that self-quarantine for a month simply because of so many unknown transmission factors. Now that Spain is experiencing somewhat of a resurgence (I live outside of Barcelona) I have decided to go ahead again and to stay away from the public for another few weeks. Too much is unknown. While it might be an inconvenience for me to remain at home, if it saves even one life of an older person, it is worth it. Thanks again for a well-researched and informative video.

      @dsmj7389 4 года назад

      There are antibodies that were found in blood stored in blood banks from 3 years ago, that are at least partially effective in fighting against SARS CoV 2. People may have developed them from exposure to a previous coronavirus. But this particular virus is believed to be brand new.

    The problem with pooled tests is that they trade the number of samples for time. To obtain the pooled results, resample and then to get results from the second sample may take up to a week or more.

      Depends on capacity, if your normal life only requires you to use 40% of that as you don't exercise or whatever then you'll never notice if something happens to the other 60. I had it (based on antibody test) and my only symptom is that it has added 1:30 to my mile time on runs

      Some people smoke cigarettes for many years before they attain “smokers cough” and they have lung damage throughout those years that is asymptomatic. It just means you can’t feel it yourself or present it measurably to others (without the use of mechanical or chemical testing).

    I get covid 19 and i'm asymptomatic. I got infected from my friend while having a brief lunch. He was asymptomatic at that time but developing mild symptom (mild cough) since then and later tested positive. I always push myself to follow protocol but i was off guard at that lunch moment and it hits me. So please be discipline to protocol..never be off guard. You never know the condition of people you are interact with.
    This is my 7th day of isolation since my test result (12th days since got infected) and i will continue to do so until about 14 days to keep others safe. I keep tracking on my temperature and oxygen level and my office provide us with standby doctor to monitor our condition.

      Its actually kinda like any virus, when it comes to that question. A) time exposed to the infected person plus B) amount of exposure (coughed on by someone sick =high exposure vs. Touching contaminated surface then own eyes =low), plus C) whether you had any protection over your face minus D) how quickly and how long you washed with soap and water, minus E) then you're own body with its unique immune response if it did get in through your mouth, nose or eyes = X , your chances of having no symptoms. But new information comes out monthly.

    Hearing of asymptomatic carriers reminds me of Emeline Shaw from Tom Clancy's The Division 2. She was an asymptomatic carrier of a lab grown super virus that went crazy after her daughter died in the quarantine. Angry at the world, she started a cult and began taking revenge on all of Washington for her daughter's death. At one point, she had her followers purposely contaminate parts of the city with her blood and blood from other confirmed carriers.
    I hope and pray nothing like that happens to anyone here in real life. Thankfully, there are big difference between the Dollar Flu from The Division and COVID-19. Mainly that the Dollar Flu had a near perfect mortality rate.

    Mild symptoms in mid February, with a "very high blood pressure spike" one night brought on by a siren out checking an Easter wreath positioning on my front door. I could feel tightness increasing in my back, I took a full dose aspirin and laid down to let it work. I went on a full dose aspirin routine, 1 in the a.m., 1 before bed, aiming for 12 hours apart, I also pay attention to hydration. I am 65+, elevated bmi, but not morbidly obese. Seems to me to be the clotting aspect of this virus that is doing so much damage. If my back or chest tightens, I take a full dose aspirin and start to figure out whether I am dehydrated... I am not a doctor, so use your own judgement, but some of these injuries to people's bodies are heartbreaking, so I am mentioning my own "tonic," to try to help.
