Within this framework, “Masrawy” provides a daily service that includes displaying everything you want to know about the latest developments in the emerging corona virus, from the emergence of new symptoms or the occurrence of a different mutation, as well as the development of vaccines and drugs, in brief.

Double treatment against Corona

Scientists, during a new study, have found an antiviral drug that effectively prevents the recurrence of the coronavirus that causes Covid-19, and at the same time fights the immune reaction that kills Corona patients around the world.

This discovery is the hope of a group of researchers headed by Christian Canstrup Holm and David Olgener who are behind a new study recently published in the journal Nature Communications, according to “medicalxpress”.

The study showed that a drug called dimethyl fumarate (DMF), which is approved to treat multiple sclerosis patients, prevents the growth of a group of viruses in the body’s cells, including the Corona virus (SARS-CoV2), and also suppresses the immune reaction or inflammatory condition that forms a large part. From the actual threat to coronavirus patients.

A surprise about the highlight show

A recent study revealed the most prominent sign of the symptoms to know if a person was infected with the emerging corona virus “Covid-19”, and denied that the symptoms of coughing and coughing are the most prominent.

According to researchers at University College London, who evaluated health data from primary care centers in London, loss of smell or taste is the symptom most indicative of a person’s infection with corona, according to Sky News.

New evidence of corona transmission through the air

A recent study conducted by the University of Georgia revealed that researchers were able to support the growing evidence of the spread of the Corona virus through the air.

To understand how the new Corona virus is transmitted through the air, University of Georgia researchers worked with two epidemiologists from two regional centers for disease control and prevention in China.

The researchers studied the method of transmitting a person infected with Coronavirus from the Chinese province of Zhejiang, the infection to the passengers of one of the buses, and it was found that the infection was transmitted from the infected person to the passengers through the air conditioning system, and it was found that the windows of the bus were locked, which caused the infection to spread quickly to the bus passengers, according to Transfer of “24” the Emirati.

A new indication of corona infection

According to a research study conducted by University College London “UCL” that not smelling garlic, coffee or perfume may be a more clear warning sign of infection with the Corona virus than was previously thought.

The results of the study, which were published in the weekly medical journal “PLOS”, were based on antibody tests for the emerging corona virus, taken from 567 people, whose sense of smell or taste had deteriorated over the past month.

About 78% of those who underwent the tests carried antibodies, which means that they were more likely to be infected with the virus, and the loss of smell was the most common in the group three times more than the loss of the sense of taste, according to the German News Agency.
