instant relief for piles
pain, burning & itching after passing stools in Piles & fissures.Piles treatment during Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
We’re all going through trying times right now. The pandemic coronavirus (COVID-19) has had an impact on individuals, businesses, and governments alike. However, once we have endured the difficulties of this pandemic and the subsequent crisis, we will all triumph collectively.
Tumblr media
Stool has Coronavirus
The treatment of piles (Bavasir, Mulvyadh), anal-Fissure, constipation, and fistula, among other conditions, is impacted by significant developments in the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
The Coronavirus can be viable in the stools of infected patients, according to articles published in the reputable medical journals The Lancet and The New England Journal of Medicine 1, 2, 3, and 4. The Coronavirus can remain viable in stools for five weeks after being eliminated from respiratory secretions, according to the Lancet article.
Using cream for Piles treatment is not safe
PiloKit is a one-of-its-kind combination treatment for Piles and Fissure, with clinically proven efficacy. PiloKit consists of three medicines: PiloSpray, a spray for the external treatment of Piles and Fissure, PiloTab, a tablet for the internal treatment of Piles and Fissure, and ConstiTab, a laxative tablet for Constipation.
PiloKit is recommended for patients with advanced grades of Piles, internal and external Piles, bleeding Piles, and patients with acute Anal fissures. PiloKit is also recommended for those patients who have been suffering from Piles and fissures for a long time.
Over 70% of the patients with Piles and Fissure, if treated with medicines in the early stages, do not require surgery. It has been found in several cases that timely treatment of Piles and Fissure with PiloKit, can minimize the need for surgery.
PiloSpray — World’s 1st Touch-free Spray Treatment for Piles
Common anorectal conditions, such as Hemorrhoids (also known as piles) and anal-fissures are common, affecting approximately 5% of the global population and 7.5 percent of Indians. Medical management is the treatment of choice for more than 70% of patients, as observed in clinical practice. Creams, ointments, gels, or suppositories that are typically applied by directly touching the anal area are frequently preferred by these patients. The Coronavirus poses a serious threat of further spreading through topical application in the anal region by infected patients and the absence of proper hand sanitization practices, particularly in developing nations.
Our research in Piles treatment
It very well may be gathered, that in these seasons of the Covid (Coronavirus) pandemic, the utilization of an item for direct effective application in the butt-centric district, wouldn’t be fitting as it builds the gamble of waste oral transmission. We at Mending Hands Spices considered this issue and concocted a spearheading arrangement. In collaboration with Healing Hands Clinic (HHC), India’s largest specialized proctology hospital chain, we have developed innovative Piles medicines through extensive research and development and clinical trials for more than five years. With world-class medical and surgical interventions at our hospitals, HHC has treated over 3 lakh patients with various anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, and constipation for more than ten years.

How the Johnson & Johnson Vaccine Works
Tumblr media
Johnson & Johnson is testing a coronavirus vaccine known as JNJ-78436735 or Ad26.COV2.S. Results from a clinical trial are expected in January.
Janssen Pharmaceutica, a Belgium-based division of Johnson & Johnson, is developing the vaccine in collaboration with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.
A Piece of the Coronavirus
The SARS-CoV-2 virus is studded with proteins that it uses to enter human cells. These so-called spike proteins make a tempting target for potential vaccines and treatments.
Tumblr media
The Johnson & Johnson vaccine is based on the virus’s genetic instructions for building the spike protein. But unlike the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines, which store the instructions in single-stranded RNA, the Johnson & Johnson vaccine uses double-stranded DNA.
DNA Inside an Adenovirus
The researchers added the gene for the coronavirus spike protein to another virus called Adenovirus 26. Adenoviruses are common viruses that typically cause colds or flu-like symptoms. The Johnson & Johnson team used a modified adenovirus that can enter cells but can’t replicate inside them or cause illness.
Tumblr media
Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine comes out of decades of research on adenovirus-based vaccines. In July, the first one was approved for general use — a vaccine for Ebola, also made by Johnson & Johnson. The company is also running trials on adenovirus-based vaccines for other diseases, including H.I.V. and Zika. Some other coronavirus vaccines are also based on adenoviruses, such as the one developed by the University of Oxford and AstraZeneca using a chimpanzee adenovirus.
Adenovirus-based vaccines for Covid-19 are more rugged than mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna. DNA is not as fragile as RNA, and the adenovirus’s tough protein coat helps protect the genetic material inside. As a result, the Johnson & Johnson vaccine can be refrigerated for up to three months at 36–46°F (2–8°C).
Entering a Cell
After the vaccine is injected into a person’s arm, the adenoviruses bump into cells and latch onto proteins on their surface. The cell engulfs the virus in a bubble and pulls it inside. Once inside, the adenovirus escapes from the bubble and travels to the nucleus, the chamber where the cell’s DNA is stored.
Tumblr media
The adenovirus pushes its DNA into the nucleus. The adenovirus is engineered so it can’t make copies of itself, but the gene for the coronavirus spike protein can be read by the cell and copied into a molecule called messenger RNA, or mRNA.
Building Spike Proteins
The mRNA leaves the nucleus, and the cell’s molecules read its sequence and begin assembling spike proteins.
Tumblr media
Some of the spike proteins produced by the cell form spikes that migrate to its surface and stick out their tips. The vaccinated cells also break up some of the proteins into fragments, which they present on their surface. These protruding spikes and spike protein fragments can then be recognized by the immune system.
The adenovirus also provokes the immune system by switching on the cell’s alarm systems. The cell sends out warning signals to activate immune cells nearby. By raising this alarm, the Johnson & Johnson vaccine causes the immune system to react more strongly to the spike proteins.
Spotting the Intruder
When a vaccinated cell dies, the debris contains spike proteins and protein fragments that can then be taken up by a type of immune cell called an antigen-presenting cell.
Tumblr media
The cell presents fragments of the spike protein on its surface. When other cells called helper T cells detect these fragments, the helper T cells can raise the alarm and help marshal other immune cells to fight the infection.
Making Antibodies
Other immune cells, called B cells, may bump into the coronavirus spikes on the surface of vaccinated cells, or free-floating spike protein fragments. A few of the B cells may be able to lock onto the spike proteins. If these B cells are then activated by helper T cells, they will start to proliferate and pour out antibodies that target the spike protein.
Tumblr media
Stopping the Virus
The antibodies can latch onto coronavirus spikes, mark the virus for destruction and prevent infection by blocking the spikes from attaching to other cells.
Tumblr media
Killing Infected Cells
The antigen-presenting cells can also activate another type of immune cell called a killer T cell to seek out and destroy any coronavirus-infected cells that display the spike protein fragments on their surfaces.
Tumblr media
Remembering the Virus
Johnson & Johnson is testing a single dose of the vaccine, unlike the two-dose coronavirus vaccines from Pfizer, Moderna and AstraZeneca. But because Johnson & Johnson’s Phase 3 trial results have not yet been released, researchers don’t know how well the vaccine might work, or how long its protection might last.
Tumblr media
If the vaccine is effective, it’s possible that the number of antibodies and killer T cells will drop in the months after vaccination. But the immune system also contains special cells called memory B cells and memory T cells that might retain information about the coronavirus for years or even decades.
Vaccine Timeline
January, 2020: Johnson & Johnson begins work on a coronavirus vaccine.
March 2020: Johnson & Johnson receives $456 million from the United States government to help develop and produce the vaccine.
July 2020: A Phase 1/2 trial begins. Unlike the clinical trials for other leading vaccines, the trial involves one dose, not two.
August 2020: The federal government agrees to pay Johnson & Johnson $1 billion for 100 million doses, if the vaccine is approved.
September 2020: Johnson & Johnson launches a Phase 3 trial.
Oct. 8 2020: The European Union reaches a deal to obtain 200 million doses.
Oct. 12 2020: The company pauses its Phase 3 trial to investigate an adverse reaction in a volunteer.
Oct. 23 2020: The trial resumes.
Nov. 16 2020: Johnson & Johnson announces a second Phase 3 trial to observe the effects of two doses of their vaccine, instead of just one.
Dec. 17 2020: Johnson & Johnson announces its Phase 3 trial is fully enrolled, with around 45,000 participants.
January 2021: Preliminary results from the Phase 3 trial are expected in January. The company is aiming to produce at least a billion doses this year.
Jan. 13 2021: Johnson & Johnson expects to release trial results in as little as two weeks. But the company is falling behind on its original production schedule.
Feb. 24 2021: The vaccine had a 72 percent overall efficacy rate in the United States and 64 percent in South Africa, where a highly contagious variant called B.1.351 emerged in the fall and is now driving most cases. The vaccine also showed efficacy against severe forms of Covid-19.
Feb. 27 2021: The Food and Drug Administration authorizes the vaccine for emergency use.

Queen Letizia and Princess Leonor, vaccinated against the coronavirus
Tumblr media
The young woman has followed the regulations in force in the Community of Madrid that establish that minors under 16 years of age who study long-term international studies can receive the vaccine.
Queen Letizia has already completed her vaccination shift. Felipe VI's wife has come early this Friday afternoon to the vaccination center installed at the Wizink Center in Madrid to be inoculated against COVID-19. Not only she, but also the princess of Asturias has received the first dose, in this case at the International Vaccination Center located on Calle Montesa in Madrid.
The young woman has followed the regulations in force in the Community of Madrid. This establishes that minors under 16 years of age who travel outside our borders to study long-term international studies can receive the aforementioned vaccine. The heir to the throne has been accompanied by her mother, as confirmed by official sources.
The first-born of the King and Queen - she will turn 16 next October - is scheduled to start the two International Baccalaureate courses at UWC Atlantic College in Wales, United Kingdom in August. It should be remembered that the regulations of the Community of Madrid establish that in these cases of vaccination, the minor must be accompanied by their father, mother or legal guardian.
Queen Letizia has chosen the vaccination center installed at the Wizink Center in Madrid, just as King Felipe did at the time. The monarch was inoculated on May 29 after presiding over the central act on the occasion of ‘Armed Forces Day’. He appeared at the aforementioned place on Saturday afternoon accompanied by the head of the Royal Household medical service, Juan Martínez. Also present was Antonio Zapatero, doctor and Deputy Minister of Public Health of Madrid. On her part, Queen Sofía received the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine on March 16, in this case at the El Pardo health center. Three weeks later she returned to the same place to be inoculated with the second dose.

2/1 Update on Wuhan Coronavirus
The number of confirmed case outside China is also rising rapidly. I had to update for like a dozen times yesterday to catch up the growth. Please be careful my friends, especially those who are in Japan. Many Taiwanese there said they couldn’t find masks or alcohol cleaners anywhere because Chinese tourists went on panic buying for these vital resources while some Chinese residents there are hoarding and sending them back to China. Moreover, Japanese government has no field experience of dealing with such outbreak like SARS or MERS. Please make sure you have sufficient masks for the following 3 months and use them when necessary. Stay safe and stay healthy!
To access the number of confirmed case and city info, please use this responsive map HERE
For more detailed info, check up on another useful dashboard made by John Hopkins HERE.
Especially thanks to @silvakristiina @starburstshores @missy-hissy @simsmidgen and @han-tala who are kind enough to help me with the latest local news.💜 
I’ll check up and update the dashboard every hour while update on tumblr every 2~3 days. If you find this update disturbing, please feel free to block one of the following tags “wuhan virus”/ “wuhan peneumonia” / “wuhancoronavirus” /”wuhan coronavirus.”

How the Oxford-AstraZeneca Vaccine Works
Tumblr media
The University of Oxford partnered with the British-Swedish company AstraZeneca to develop and test a coronavirus vaccine known as ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 or AZD1222. A clinical trial revealed the vaccine was 62 to 90 percent effective, depending on the initial dosage. Despite some uncertainty over trial results, Britain authorized the vaccine for emergency use in December, and India authorized a version of the vaccine called Covishield on Jan. 3.
A Piece of the Coronavirus
The SARS-CoV-2 virus is studded with proteins that it uses to enter human cells. These so-called spike proteins make a tempting target for potential vaccines and treatments.

The Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine for Covid-19 is more rugged than the mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna. DNA is not as fragile as RNA, and the adenovirus’s tough protein coat helps protect the genetic material inside. As a result, the Oxford vaccine doesn’t have to stay frozen. The vaccine is expected to last for at least six months when refrigerated at 38–46°F (2–8°C).

Remembering the Virus
The Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine requires two doses, given four weeks apart, to prime the immune system to fight off the coronavirus. During the clinical trial of the vaccine, the researchers unwittingly gave some volunteers only half a dose.
Surprisingly, the vaccine combination in which the first dose was only half strength was 90 percent effective at preventing Covid-19 in the clinical trial. In contrast, the combination of two full-dose shots led to just 62 percent efficacy. The researchers speculate that the lower first dose did a better job of mimicking the experience of an infection, promoting a stronger immune response when the second dose was administered.
Tumblr media
Because the vaccine is so new, researchers don’t know how long its protection might last. It’s possible that in the months after vaccination, the number of antibodies and killer T-cells will drop. But the immune system also contains special cells called memory B-cells and memory T-cells that might retain information about the coronavirus for years or even decades.

Ipswich Town: Physio suggests football ‘may need circuit breaker’ to deal with new coronavirus variant
Tumblr media
Paul Lambert is certainly one of seven members of employees at Ipswich to check optimistic for coronavirus
The brand new pressure of coronavirus might imply that English soccer wants a “circuit breaker” to deliver circumstances underneath management, in response to Ipswich physio Matt Byard.
He stated 5 Ipswich gamers, boss Paul Lambert and head of soccer operations Lee O’Neill are all struggling with the brand new variant of coronavirus.
Town’s next two games have already been postponed however Byard thinks longer-term motion might have to be taken.
Gamers might be retested on Wednesday and Byard fears extra optimistic outcomes.
“I do assume that if we’re taking a look at my case examine for instance of how transmission happens extra readily I believe what is especially related right here is the truth that our insurance policies and procedures have not developed massively from July,” Byard informed BBC Sport.
“We nonetheless do not need entry to dressing rooms inside the coaching centre, we’re not showering routinely, we’re not consuming communally, gamers are nonetheless arriving and leaving in their very own coaching equipment.
“And if these insurance policies and procedures are being challenged by a brand new pressure then I might welcome firstly probably a reintroduction of a testing regime inside the EFL. However I believe a small hiatus could also be related to only re-establish protocols and assess that transmission fee.
“I recognise that issues may not be higher or completely different in two weeks’ time, however I might welcome a circuit break to perhaps simply re-establish protocols.
“I believe we have additionally acquired to recognise that in League One there’s already been a disparity in fixtures performed. Some groups are three or 4 video games behind.
“We ourselves might be behind in our fixture checklist, we’ll have our subsequent two video games off, we have had the one previous this off and we might nicely have a fourth sport, which suggests gamers might be someplace between 21 and 28 days between enjoying video games, which represents a winter break for us, which has its personal challenges close to danger to tender tissue harm as nicely.”
Byard’s feedback include Premier League gamers in tier four areas to be examined for Covid-19 twice every week as quickly as it’s doable to take action.
Gamers within the prime flight have been examined on a weekly foundation because the begin of the 2020-21 season. However testing on the six golf equipment presently in a tier 4 space will now revert to the extent used throughout ‘Venture Restart’ in June.
Elevated testing might be expanded to top-flight golf equipment in lower-tier areas from January.
The EFL has additionally confirmed it is going to be “reviewing and strengthening” Covid protocols over the Christmas interval “to assist minimise transmission danger”
Revised protocols are prone to cowl time spent in any indoor atmosphere being saved to an absolute minimal, using gyms, altering and catering services and a number of coaches or particular person automobile use being advisable for journey to matches.
Steering can even stress the necessity to restrict social contact with anybody exterior of a family bubble over Christmas.
The EFL has competition-wide testing at completely different instances all through the season with the subsequent spherical scheduled for the week commencing 4 January.
Championship side Millwall and League One rivals Peterborough and Sunderland have additionally already postponed components of their Christmas fixture programmes due to coronavirus circumstances.
Portsmouth have additionally reported optimistic outcomes and are retesting their squad, whereas League Two facet Exeter City said on Tuesdayexternal-link that though one participant and one member of employees had examined optimistic, the membership have been “making ready for the upcoming festive fixtures as regular”.
