Good morning all,
Solar exposure and temperatures, effective means of combating covid-19?
I depart from my silence since 2016, because the subject interests me and because I had already made a paper a long time ago about the Spanish Flu (which had proved that a sanatorium and an army captain had saved lives by sun exposure) and given the (relative) gravity of the situation. And I don't know if the following info has already been published here:
UV Info (go to the Sun, zou ....)

“National Biodefense Analysis and Countermeasures Center”Times to reduce virus strength to half-life (to halve its power)
- 18 hours with a temperature between 21 and 24 degrees Celsius, with 20% humidity on a non-porous surface.
=> 6 hours when the humidity tx rises to 80%, (This includes surfaces such as door handles).
=> =>
and only two minutes when sunlight is added to the equation.
- 1 hour in air with a temperature of 21 to 24 degrees Celsius and 20% humidity.
=> =>
with the addition of sunlight, this duration drops to a minute and a half.
The more we increase the exposure, the more we reduce the risk ... But that does not mean that the pathogen is eliminated entirely.
“Previous studies had shown that the virus survived better in cold and dry weather conditions rather than hot and humid. The lower rate of spread of the disease in countries in the southern hemisphere where it is early fall, with still warm weather, also seems to support this theory. ”Source:

"safe" which goes to treat the virus where it is most devastating: in the lungs and by inhalation.
Indeed, if beyond 24 ° C, the virus begins to decline, at body temperature, it is not in conditions of maintaining its ideal integrity, which proves that people who develop symptoms have deficits.
The idea is from Dr Pierre-Jacques Raybaud (Medicine, general practitioner, graduate in general immunology of research in human biology)

Practical video:
Feedback, I tested this:
85 ° C, as said in the video (even if it's the temperature of some saunas), it's a bit high anyway (and not so necessary).
It is I believe the only really effective means because prophylactic which emerged, with for the curative aspect - in prevention or suspicion of contact with the virus - the vapor inhalations which I recommend between 75 ° C / 77 ° C (inhaler sold in pharmacies, usually used with Perubare) which help to fight the virus in the lungs BEFORE having symptoms and which clears the airways (for people who have been potentially exposed) or in case of suspicion of exposure, which most likely reduces the impact of the viral load.
In reality, the virus is very sensitive to heat and here the figures would be for around 10 minutes of “treatment”:
- 25% at 40 ° C
- 50% at 50 ° C (half-life)
- 99% at 56 ° C
So the advantage of going up in temperature is clear, it allows to treat the lungs more deeply and reduce the duration of inhalations.
Breathing vapor at low density is not intended to destroy viruses (which are biological accidents) but to reduce the viral load, to weaken it to destroy its membrane made up of lipids by denaturing it, and therefore do “Win the competition” to living and still healthy cells, facing the virus .... but also to thin the mucus to encourage the movement of sputum which transports viral toxins out of the lungs (through the mouth) and eliminates obstructions. And this last point is mechanical and therefore really effective.
And of course, doing so also helps reduce an overwhelming immune response from the body, as the virus doesn't attack the lungs, but blood vessels, sources say.
In addition, steam at temperatures up to 77 ° C does not damage lung tissue if it is not dense, since its heat will be dissipated on contact with human tissue up to the lungs, while being effective in killing virus in contact with small viral droplets. It is also necessary to bring out the air through the nasal cavity, which then also benefits from the treatment.
You can also use a kettle (more effective than the inhaler, provided in both cases to have a thermometer to do it safely: imperative) and put a cone on top, but in all cases, you must breathe well very slowly through your mouth at the right temperature (which should not be exceeded, so as not to create oral or gingival lesions). When we practice this, after it's crazy what the airways are cleared! Unbelievable.
Besides that, anyone with a chronic illness (or not), should do a complete biocheck (thorough blood test which reveals efficiencies in vitamins and other nutritive elements) and compensate either by food, or by food supplements.
After everyone knows what he wants / can do ...
Without biocheck, the supplements of vitamins C (pulmonary affections) and “D”, are recognized effective, and always without danger and also makes it possible to do something “BEFORE being hurt”.
Proof of this is the latest studies which target new molecules (28 potential drugs already tested) and which point to the fact that the virus attacks the weak point of calcium metabolism.
NATURE review:
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2286-9After multiple viral tests, the researchers identified two sets of pharmacological agents that showed antiviral activity: inhibitors of mRNA translation
and predictive regulators of the Sigma1 and Sigma2 receptors. Other studies of these agents targeting the host factor, including their combination with drugs that directly target viral enzymes, could lead to a therapeutic regimen to treat COVID-19.
The Sigma1 and Sigma2 receivers are the following (for those interested):
https://fr.qwe.wiki/wiki/Sigma-1_receptorhttps://fr.qwe.wiki/wiki/Sigma-2_receptorI also talked about these “receptor” issues a few years ago, so nothing new, this virus seems to behave like all viruses. What is the problem is the speed of propagation and the fact that it is approx. 6 times more lethal than seasonal flu on average (and that it is not yet clear whether it is from a natural source or not). And the fact that over time, and junk food, the immunity of populations is declining, and possibly much more sensitive to viruses.
Good greetings to all the “heroes” of this forum, still there after years, they will recognize each other!
Obamat.
