Social Isolation From The Pandemic Makes Sitting Damage More Likely:
So the coronavirus pandemic has affected us all in many ways.

From self-quarantine & isolation, to social-distancing & facemasks,

It’s changed a lot about life all over the world.

And although we’ve done a good job of adapting, things are still weird.

One of the stranger things we’re faced with is a product of that isolation and also remote work.

But luckily enough, science has found a solution to the health-destroying effects of long-term sitting…

Pfizer’s Coronavirus Vaccine. A New Hope, With Some Caveats:
So we got our miracle! A Coronavirus vaccine!

What this constitutes in medicine really is kind of amazing.

Even the incredible work done on Ebola was based on elements that had been in the pipeline for years, so this work is like bottled-lightning!

There would have been absolutely nobody in March of this year who guessed a working vaccine by year’s end would be possible or even likely.

Lifespan Of Coronavirus Antibodies. Do We Really Get Just 3 Months?:
We’ve recently gotten two more pieces of bad news.

One was that coronavirus can survive on surfaces a lot longer than we used to think, especially in cold weather.

The second just came along a short while ago in a British study stating what many doctors feared.

For some reason contrary to other diseases, antibodies to coronavirus don’t stick around longer than three months.

Pretty spooky. But a team at Mount Sinai just found some more encouraging results…

Covid-19 On Surfaces. It Could Stick Around Awhile In Cold Weather:
One of the scariest elements of a new situation is not knowing what to do.

Virus-hunter docs bridged some of that gap by figuring out and demonstrating that coronavirus spreads through the air.

And mask-wearers everywhere are disappointed by those who refuse to wear them.

But as time goes on, researchers are finding out increasingly-frightening information that makes messy people look even more dangerous.

And part of that is related to COVID also spreading like another disease we’re afraid of…

Preventing Covid-19 Can A Supplement Really Help?:
Until a cure arrives, most of us are looking for anything we can do to stay healthy,

Because one of the scariest things a person can do is to be in the middle of a pandemic without a vaccine.

Especially given how easily the virus droplets can get to you.

So we’ve previously talked about how to prevent COVID-19 with masks & behavior,

And even social-activities that could aggravate the spread.

But other than behavioral-changes, is there anything else you can do? A Boston University team would say yes…

Coronavirus & Home Air Safety. AirSoap Filter To The Rescue?:
So as we learned about in the Ultraviolet Sanitizer post,

Not only has the entire world been turned upside down by coronavirus,

But so has the world of indoor small business.

And Columbia researchers came up with a “filter” that might help before a vaccine.

But what about when people take off their masks and start breathing in the enclosed-airspaces of their homes?

Well, a relatively new company may have a better solution where standard HEPA-filtration could fall short…

Can Ultraviolet Disinfectants Save The World Before A Vaccine?:
The coronavirus pandemic has turned the world upside down.

And we’re all looking for some time out in the future when we can escape purgatory and just get back to “normal”.

To survive until then we all wear our masks, some of us poorly, and also try to socially-distance as best we can, too.

One of the other things we do to kill the bug is to clean both hands and surfaces,

But a crafty-team at Columbia found out we might be able to do a lot more than that until the vaccine arrives…

Which Activities Are Risky Or Safe During A Pandemic?:
So one of the biggest problems we have right now is there isn’t much that’s normal.

And even as things reopen and we try to reestablish some normality, we know there are new rules to follow.

Nowhere is this more apparent than in the continued closings of places like Restaurants, Bars, & Gyms.
