Is your immune system weak after Covid?

 

After recovering from an acute COVID-19 infection, patients may continue to experience signs and symptoms such as weariness, body aches, coughing, sore throat, breathing difficulties, and so on.

In recovered patients, long Covid or Covid sequelae can arise. First, the most common side effects mentioned are fatigue or muscle weakness, dyspnea, joint pain and chest pain, sleep difficulties, anxiety or depression, and a decreased quality of life.

The virus causes a cytokine storm and hyper inflammation in the immune system, which leads to additional multi-organ damage and death.

Neurological issues, such as headaches, dizziness, difficulties concentrating, memory problems, diminished smell or taste, weakness, or muscle pain, affect at least one-third of patients with COVID-19.

According to study, persons who recover from COVID-19 have immunity to the virus for 3 to 5 years. Immunity can develop naturally after contracting COVID-19 or as a result of receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. 

"When there is no other cause for their symptoms, those who acquire symptoms again within 3 months from their first attack of COVID-19 may have to be tested again." So you could be immune for up to three months, unless you already have immunity for that long.                                  

COVID-19 immunity can last anywhere from 3 months to 5 years for individuals who recover.

Immunity can develop naturally after contracting COVID-19 or as a result of receiving the COVID-19 vaccine.

All four of these components have been discovered in people who have recovered from COVID-19.

•         Antibodies are proteins that circulate in the bloodstream that identify and neutralize foreign things such as viruses.

•         Helper T cells aid in pathogen recognition, whereas killer T cells kill germs.

•         When the body needs new antibodies, B cells produce them. 

However, it is unclear exactly what this entails for the immune response and how long immunity lasts. Because the duration of immunity after contracting COVID-19 or receiving the vaccine is uncertain, physical or social distance, as well as wearing a mask, must be maintained to prevent transmission.

Is drug allergy genetic?

Is drug allergy genetic? Drug allergies are abnormal reactions of the immune system to a medication. In many cases, the allergic reactions are mild. Severe cases can lead to shock and may be life-threatening. Though certain reactions are mostly incalculable, genetic polymorphisms of specific genes can drive patients to allergy. These genetic allergies causing victims usually show familial and ethnic clustering. This is why we regularly observe doctors questioning for a family history of any drug allergy. Is someone of your family allergic to a specific drug or type of drug? If so, be warned: should be careful what drugs you take, you may well have inherited an allergic tendency.   This does not mean that drug allergies run in families. There is no reason to say that if a parent shows an allergic reaction to a drug then the children or any one of them will develop this allergy.  So make sure that your doctor  know regarding your history of drug allergies in your family.

Does COVID-19 live in water? Can it transmit through?

  Does COVID-19 live in water? Can it transmit through? The impact of COVID-19 has been perceived by everyone. The pandemic has changed people’s lives in both enormous and small ways. However, our epidemiologists accomplishing, to detect and diagnose the concern some myths were worrying.   The risks of infection COVID-19 is higher in crowded and inadequately ventilated places wherever this virus appears to spread by respiratory droplets or aerosols more efficiently   Genetic element from SARS-CoV-2 has been identified in untreated wastewater. Although it's unclear how long the virus can persist in it. But currently, there is no evidence regarding the survival of the coronavirus in drinking water. The corona virus has not been detected in drinking-water supplies as the Wastewater processing plants eliminate and degrade many viruses by using a variety of chemical and other disinfection processes before it goes into your home.   Summer creeps closer and closer, people may be
