Japan Ministry and UK Doctor: Dishwashing Soap More Effective Against Corona Virus

 Ayun sa Japan Industry Ministry at sa isang UK Doctor na nagtratrabaho sa NHS, mas effective diumano ang Dishwashing Soap bilang panghugas ng mga gamit at kamay laban sa Corona Virus 2019.
Ito ang itsura ng Novel Corona Virus 2019. Ang nasa loob ng bilog na yan ang ang virus na natatakpan ng tinatawag nilang lipid layer o fatty shell. Para tuluyang mapuksa ang virus, kailangan mo ng sabon na bilang degreaser na siyang bubuwag ng bilog na shell o nucleus na iyan. Panoorin ang video sa ibaba para mas maintindihan. Naalala mo ang dishwashing soap na kayang tanggalin ang mantika at sebo? Ganyan na ganyan ang Corona Virus, parang sebo na kapag nahugasan ng sabon ng atleast 20seconds ay namamatay.

How soap kills the corona virus? Watch this.

Ayun pa sa report, ang dishwashing soap ay epektibo sa paglilinis at pagdidisinfect ng novel corona virus sa ulat ng Japan's industry ministry nitong Miyerkules.

Ang dishwashing soap ay magagamit na alternabo sa mga alcohol-based disinfectants kagaya ng hand sanitizers at alcohol na sobrang salat sa stocks at paubusan ang suplay.

Ayun pa sa mga eksperto sa Japan, may tatlong compounds na lumalaban sa coronavirus at ito ay ang surfactants, karaniwang ginagamit sa mga sabon at cleaners, hypochlorous acid water, at quaternary ammonium salts.
Samantala ito naman ang tinatagal ng COVID19 sa hangin, sa copper, sa mga hawakan ng pintuan at switches ng ilaw, sa cardboard, plastic at glass.

Dishwashing soap contains a degreaser. The virus is encased in a fatty shell. Degreaser is exactly what you need. If you're struggling to buy hand-wash, you can still use soap, shower gels, even dishwashing liquid. Basically, any soap that will destroy the lipid layer around the virus. You need to dissolve the oily coating on the virus to kill the nucleus. Dishwashing soap is perfect. Dishwashing liquid kills germs too. Plain old bar soap is fine as well. Any kind of soap will break down the outside surface of the virus and kill it.  The reason soap work is because this particular virus is sitting inside a fatty envelope and so soaps that are designed to break up fat will make it fall apart. I recently heard a doctor or research head speaking on the virus and he said that every coronavirus has a lipid coating that is vital to its life. Plain soap breaks up lipids. Dishwashing liquid best of all. Strip the virus of its coating of fat, say bye-bye virus.


A report from MarketWatch says this: Soap dissolves the fat membrane, and the virus falls apart like a house of cards and “dies,” or rather, it becomes inactive as viruses aren’t really alive. Viruses can be active outside the body for hours, even days.
Disinfectants or liquids, wipes, gels and creams containing alcohol (and soap) have a similar effect but are not as good as regular soap. Apart from alcohol and soap, antibacterial agents in those products don’t affect the virus structure much. Consequently, many antibacterial products are basically just an expensive version of soap in how they act on viruses. Soap is the best, but alcohol wipes are good when soap is not practical or handy, for example in office reception areas
Soapy water is totally different. The soap contains fat-like substances known as amphiphiles, some structurally similar to the lipids in the virus membrane. The soap molecules “compete” with the lipids in the virus membrane. That is more or less how soap also removes normal dirt of the skin (see graphic at the top of this article).
The soap molecules also compete with a lot of other non-covalent bonds that help the proteins, RNA and lipids to stick together. The soap is effectively “dissolving” the glue that holds the virus together. Add to that all the water.
The soap also outcompetes the interactions between the virus and the skin surface. Soon the virus gets detached and falls apart like a house of cards due to the combined action of the soap and water. Boom, the virus is gone!
The skin is rough and wrinkly, which is why you need a fair amount of rubbing and soaking to ensure the soap reaches every nook and cranny on the skin surface that could be hiding active viruses.
Alcohol-based products include all “disinfectants” and “antibacterial” products that contain a high share of alcohol solution, typically 60%-80% ethanol, sometimes with a bit of isopropanol, water and a bit of soap.
Ethanol and other types of alcohol do not only readily form hydrogen bonds with the virus material but, as a solvent, are more lipophilic than water. Hence, alcohol does dissolve the lipid membrane and disrupt other supramolecular interactions in the virus.
However, you need a fairly high concentration (maybe 60%-plus) of the alcohol to get a rapid dissolution of the virus. Vodka or whiskey (usually 40% ethanol) won’t dissolve the virus as quickly. Overall, alcohol is not as good as soap at this task.
Nearly all antibacterial products contain alcohol and some soap, and that does help kill viruses. But some also include “active” bacterial killing agents, such as triclosan. Those, however, do basically nothing to the virus.

Ito ang Apat na Gamot Laban COVID-19 na Tinetesting ng WHO

Tenetest ng WHO ang apat na mga gamot na ito na posibleng makatulong laban sa Corona Virus o COVID19. Kasama ang Pilipinas sa team ng Solidarity na nag-aaral at tutuklas kung alin sa mga gamot na ito ang mabisang magpapagaling ng mga apektado ng pandemic na ito.
WHO announced that it would be conducting the trial, called SOLIDARITY, to see if the experimental drugs can curb the coronavirus pandemic. Isa na ang Pilipinas sa mga bansang nakiki-isa sa isinasagawang solidity trial ng World Health Organization (WHO) na may layuning makatuklas ng lunas laban sa coronavirus disease.

WHO is focusing on what it says are the four most promising therapies: an experimental antiviral compound called remdesivir; the malaria medications chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine; a combination of two HIV drugs, lopinavir, and ritonavir; and that same combination plus interferon-beta, an immune system messenger that can help cripple viruses. Some data on their use in COVID-19 patients have already emerged—the HIV combo failed in a small study in China—but WHO believes a large trial with a greater variety of patients is warranted.

Remdesivir

The new coronavirus is giving this compound a second chance to shine. Originally developed by Gilead Sciences to combat Ebola and related viruses, remdesivir shuts down viral replication by inhibiting a key viral enzyme, the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase.
Researchers tested remdesivir last year during the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, along with three other treatments. It did not show any effect. (Two others did.) But the enzyme it targets is similar in other viruses, and in 2017 researchers at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, showed in test tube and animal studies that the drug can inhibit the coronaviruses that cause SARS and MERS.
The first COVID-19 patient diagnosed in the United States—a young man in Snohomish county in Washington—was given remdesivir when his condition worsened; he improved the next day, according to a case report in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM). A Californian patient who received remdesivir—and who doctors thought might not survive—recovered as well.

Chloroquine and Hydroxychloroquine

At a press conference, President Donald Trump called chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine a “game changer.” “I feel good about it,” Trump said. His remarks have led to a rush in demand for the decades-old antimalarials. Researchers in France have published a study in which they treated 20 COVID-19 patients with hydroxychloroquine. They concluded that the drug significantly reduced viral load in nasal swabs.

Ritonavir/Lopinavir

This combination drug, sold under the brand name Kaletra, was approved in the United States in 2000 to treat HIV infections. Abbott Laboratories developed lopinavir specifically to inhibit the protease of HIV, an important enzyme that cleaves a long protein chain into peptides during the assembly of new viruses. Because lopinavir is quickly broken down in the human body by our own proteases, it is given with low levels of ritonavir, another protease inhibitor, that lets lopinavir persist longer.

Some Comments Worth Reading:

The confirmed #coronavirusPH arrived Jan 21, and went to Cebu. Sure she didn't have nCov symptoms during entry. Think of how many people she could've interacted with. Multiply that to the # of tourists we allowed entry. And we're confident of our Pinas healthcare system, really?

"Ibig sabihin, January 21 pa lang, paglapag ng PILIPINAS CARRIER na siya ng VIRUS. JANUARY 22-24 KUNG SINO SINO NAKAUSAP O NAKASALAMUHA NIYA SA VISAYAS ay Diyos na lang nakakaalam. January 25, andito na siya sa Manila. Tapos nakaconfine ba o nandyan pa rin pagala-gala kasi wala namang sintomas, walang malalang karamdaman, at wala naman sakit na kailangan magpaospital, ubo-ubo lang? Saan na po siya ngayon, nakaquarantine po ba or nasa labas"


We cant afford to have a breakout in the Philippines. Understaff yung mga hospitals, wala pang high quality facilities. The government underappreciates scientists. A lot would die. Especially the poor



PLEASE SOMEONE VERIFY THIS IF THIS IS TRUE
