Covid-19 Virus: Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis, Treatment and Excellent Home Remedies
A covid-19 virus is a group of viruses that can cause diseases like the normal chilly, serious intense respiratory disorder (SARS) and the Middle East respiratory condition (MERS). In 2019, a new Covid was recognized as the reason for an illness flare-up that started in China.

The Weather
A study in Clinical Infectious Diseases reported “that the risk of developing symptomatic illness within 14 days was 5 times greater when contacts were exposed to an asymptomatic [COVID]-positive child in their household.” Nearly 11% of household contacts developed symptoms within 14 days of exposure. The study also found, during a 3-month follow-up, that 6 out of 77 asymptomatic children developed Long COVID. The likelihood of developing symptoms from asymptomatic exposure is higher than we might expect. Continue to spread awareness of asymptomatic spread and advocate for increased infection control measures at your local schools.
COVID wastewater levels are decreasing. As of 3/29/24, New Mexico is “Very High,” Arkansas and Kentucky are “High,” and the rest of the states are “Moderate” to “Low” levels of SARS-CoV-2 detected in wastewater. 
Tumblr media
Wastewater levels continue to show a downward trend in the provisional data (gray shaded area) in all regions. The national wastewater levels are overall indicated as “Low.” While lower wastewater levels indicate decreased spread, it is important to continue to take precautions against infection. Holidays and spring breaks may bring people in closer proximity, so be sure to wear a mask to protect yourself and your community.

Wins
As we work to take more actions against the removal of vital public health measures, we remind you that you can still watch the recording of the People’s CDC press conference from March 13 and read the press release here. We would also like to remind you of the pre-proof of the People’s CDC External Review in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine Focus. The publication highlights the shortcomings of the CDC’s approach to public health and recommends a more equitable pandemic response.
News sources have published articles about the frustrations of people who continue to take COVID precautions. Time Magazine published an article presenting “both sides,” highlighting protest from people working with the CDC and concern from citizens and experts alike. While we are glad to see our voices be published in popular media, we are also saddened that “returning to normal” under economic and political pressure is so valued.
Treatments
Invyvid has received an FDA emergency use authorization for Pemgarda, a pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for people with immunocompromising conditions. Pemgarda is approved for people 12 and older with moderate to severe immunocompromise who are less likely to produce an adequate immune response to COVID vaccination alone. According to a press release from Invyvid, Pemgarda will release to market “imminently.”
Pre-exposure prophylaxis is commonly used for folks at high risk for exposure to HIV. As access to PrEP for HIV has been instrumental in keeping people safe, we hope that PrEP for COVID will be a useful tool for our community members with immune compromise. We also urge you to continue to wear high-quality masks and take other precautions to protect those most vulnerable.
Long COVID
People Magazine recently published an article highlighting an essay by Ziyad Al-Aly, physician and clinical epidemiologist, that pools data from several studies showing that COVID infection has lasting impacts on brain health. The review points out several impacts to cognitive functioning, including memory loss, spatial reasoning, and planning. Additionally, imaging studies have shown significant impact to brain tissue from inflammation, among other processes. The publication may be validating to those who experience lower cognitive function following COVID infection, including brain fog and memory dysfunction.
Take Action
We know that taking precautions–including masking, testing, and improving air quality–helps prevent the spread of airborne viral infection. Introducing more stringent precautions slowed outbreaks in the hematology ward of a hospital. The CDC recently released tips to improve ventilation. Help us urge the CDC to take other measures, including reinstating isolation periods. 
Additionally, the home Test to Treat program is ending in April 2024. The program provides un-or-underinsured adults with free COVID and flu tests. If a participant in the program tests positive, they can also receive free healthcare via telehealth services. Join us to help save the program that helps so many at-risk people!

Covid 19 wasn't enough
 Covid 19 wasn't enough so besides the train derailments contaminating water, factories burning down they now invented a fungal that is not curable by antibiotics or any kind of medication. 
The fungal is called Candida auris or C. Auris. They are saying it is a yeast type of fungus that is spreading through health care facilities.
 Apparently it was only in 3 states back in 2016 but has spread to 20-27 states in 2022 but now is in 30 states.
 Why are they just now sharing this? Why are they just now talking about it now that the Covid has died down and no longer causing a panic?
This is probably to lead to another panic and pandemic as if the train derailments, the factories burning down and everything else going on in the world is not enough.

Vaccines currently in development
(I did not create this list and I'm sorry I don't know the original OP who compiled it.)
These are all currently in development to come to market in the next 2 years. If just one really works it will be a game changer
MT-001 a novel protein component vaccine candidate, MT-001, based on a fragment of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein that encompasses the receptor binding domain (RBD) | A SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Designed for Manufacturability Results in Unexpected Potency and Non-Waning Humoral Response - https://www.mdpi.com/2076-393X/11/4/832 Mice and hamsters immunized with a prime-boost regimen of MT-001 demonstrated extremely high anti-spike IgG titers, and remarkably this humoral response did not appreciably wane for up to 12 months following vaccination. Further, virus neutralization titers, including titers against variants such as Delta and Omicron BA.1, remained high without the requirement for subsequent boosting.

Based on Swedish data, only in the group of men aged 90 and over could COVID vaccination possibly be beneficial. / Had correct early treatment been used against the COVID-19 infection, no age group would have benefited from vaccination.

PREMATURE EJACULATION
Tumblr media
WHAT IS PREMATURE EJACULATION ?
-  Premature ejaculation is a common sexual disorder in which a man ejaculates (releases semen) earlier than he or his partner desires during sexual activity. It often occurs with minimal sexual stimulation and can lead to distress or frustration. The specific duration that is considered "premature" can vary, but generally, if it happens consistently and causes distress, it may be a concern. It can have various causes, including psychological and physical factors, and can be treated through counseling, behavioral techniques, or medication, depending on the underlying causes.CAUSES OF PREMATURE EJACULATION :
Premature ejaculation can have various causes, which may include:
Psychological factors: Stress, anxiety, performance pressure, and relationship issues can contribute to premature ejaculation. These psychological factors can affect a person's ability to control their ejaculation.
Biological factors: Some men may have hypersensitive penile skin or an overactive ejaculatory reflex, which can make them more prone to premature ejaculation.
Hormonal imbalances: An imbalance in hormone levels, such as serotonin, can influence ejaculation control.
Medical conditions: Certain medical conditions, like erectile dysfunction, prostatitis, or thyroid problems, can contribute to premature ejaculation.
Medications: Some medications may have side effects that affect ejaculation, either by speeding it up or delaying it.
Lifestyle factors: Poor sexual habits, excessive alcohol or drug use, and lack of physical activity can also be contributing factors.
Inexperience: For some individuals, premature ejaculation may be a result of inexperience with sexual activity, and with time and practice, this issue may resolve.
PREMATURE EJACULATION IS CLASSIFIED INTO 2 CATEGORIES :
Primary (Lifelong): This type of condition has been seen almost every time since the beginning of sexual activity.
Secondary (Acquired): This type usually develops later in the stage and where previous sexual experiences did not have any problem.
SYMPTOMS OF PREMATURE EJACULATION :
The primary symptom of premature ejaculation is the inability to delay ejaculation during sexual activity, often leading to ejaculation occurring earlier than desired by the individual or their partner. Some common symptoms and characteristics associated with premature ejaculation include:
Ejaculation occurring within one to two minutes of penetration or even before penetration.
The inability to control when ejaculation happens, often with minimal sexual stimulation.
A persistent and recurrent pattern of early ejaculation that causes distress or dissatisfaction for either the individual or their partner.
Frustration, anxiety, or embarrassment related to sexual performance.
Avoidance of sexual intimacy or a reduced desire for sexual activity due to the fear of premature ejaculation.
DIAGNOSIS OF PREMATURE EJACULATION :
Medical History: The healthcare provider will take a detailed medical and sexual history, including questions about the frequency and duration of premature ejaculation, any underlying medical conditions, medications, and psychological factors that may contribute to the issue.
Physical Examination: A physical examination may be performed to rule out any physical conditions that could be causing or contributing to premature ejaculation.
Psychological Assessment: In some cases, a psychological evaluation may be conducted to assess factors such as anxiety, stress, or relationship problems that may be influencing premature ejaculation.
Evaluation of Sexual Function: Assessing overall sexual function, including erectile function, may be part of the evaluation to understand the broader context of the issue.

Opinion Here’s how to get free Paxlovid as many times as you need it
When the public health emergency around covid-19 ended, vaccines and treatments became commercial products, meaning companies could charge for them as they do other pharmaceuticals. Paxlovid, the highly effective antiviral pill that can prevent covid from becoming severe, now has a list price of nearly $1,400 for a five-day treatment course.
Thanks to an innovative agreement between the Biden administration and the drug’s manufacturer, Pfizer, Americans can still access the medication free or at very low cost through a program called Paxcess. The problem is that too few people — including pharmacists — are aware of it.
I learned of Paxcess only after readers wrote that pharmacies were charging them hundreds of dollars — or even the full list price — to fill their Paxlovid prescription. This shouldn’t be happening. A representative from Pfizer, which runs the program, explained to me that patients on Medicare and Medicaid or who are uninsured should get free Paxlovid. They need to sign up by going to paxlovid.iassist.com or by calling 877-219-7225. “We wanted to make enrollment as easy and as quick as possible,” the representative said.
Indeed, the process is straightforward. I clicked through the web form myself, and there are only three sets of information required. Patients first enter their name, date of birth and address. They then input their prescriber’s name and address and select their insurance type.
All this should take less than five minutes and can be done at home or at the pharmacy. A physician or pharmacist can fill it out on behalf of the patient, too. Importantly, this form does not ask for medical history, proof of a positive coronavirus test, income verification, citizenship status or other potentially sensitive and time-consuming information.
But there is one key requirement people need to be aware of: Patients must have a prescription for Paxlovid to start the enrollment process. It is not possible to pre-enroll. (Though, in a sense, people on Medicare or Medicaid are already pre-enrolled.)
Once the questionnaire is complete, the website generates a voucher within seconds. People can print it or email it themselves, and then they can exchange it for a free course of Paxlovid at most pharmacies.
Pfizer’s representative tells me that more than 57,000 pharmacies are contracted to participate in this program, including major chain drugstores such as CVS and Walgreens and large retail chains such as Walmart, Kroger and Costco. For those unable to go in person, a mail-order option is available, too.
The program works a little differently for patients with commercial insurance. Some insurance plans already cover Paxlovid without a co-pay. Anyone who is told there will be a charge should sign up for Paxcess, which would further bring down their co-pay and might even cover the entire cost.
Several readers have attested that Paxcess’s process was fast and seamless. I was also glad to learn that there is basically no limit to the number of times someone could use it. A person who contracts the coronavirus three times in a year could access Paxlovid free or at low cost each time.
Unfortunately, readers informed me of one major glitch: Though the Paxcess voucher is honored when presented, some pharmacies are not offering the program proactively. As a result, many patients are still being charged high co-pays even if they could have gotten the medication at no cost.
This is incredibly frustrating. However, after interviewing multiple people involved in the process, including representatives of major pharmacy chains and Biden administration officials, I believe everyone is sincere in trying to make things right. As we saw in the early days of the coronavirus vaccine rollout, it’s hard to get a new program off the ground. Policies that look good on paper run into multiple barriers during implementation.
Those involved are actively identifying and addressing these problems. For instance, a Walgreens representative explained to me that in addition to educating pharmacists and pharmacy techs about the program, the company learned it also had to make system changes to account for a different workflow. Normally, when pharmacists process a prescription, they inform patients of the co-pay and dispense the medication. But with Paxlovid, the system needs to stop them if there is a co-pay, so they can prompt patients to sign up for Paxcess.
Here is where patients and consumers must take a proactive role. That might not feel fair; after all, if someone is ill, people expect that the system will work to help them. But that’s not our reality. While pharmacies work to fix their system glitches, patients need to be their own best advocates. That means signing up for Paxcess as soon as they receive a Paxlovid prescription and helping spread the word so that others can get the antiviral at little or no cost, too.
