COVID-19 Update 61 with critical care specialist Roger Seheult, MD of https://www.MedCram.com
Thrombosis (blood clots), strokes, and myocardial infarctions are mysterious complications for some patients with COVID-19. Dr. Seheult discusses a recent case study involving a 72-year-old with elevated d-dimer and plasma Von Willebrand factor, and goes on to illustrate a hypothesis for how downregulation of ACE-2 may result in oxidative stress. This process may put patients with underlying elevated levels of oxidative stress (cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, etc.) at the greatest risk for severe COVID-19 infection.

You discovered the “cure” for covid19. Congrats. Ok so it’s not a cure exactly, but it will help humans survive it. I’d love to pretend to understand everything you explained here, but I don’t. Could be because I don’t speak english. So, now you need to develope a pill that prevents blood from coagulating OR prevent that reaction that a blood cell does when attacked by corona. Both methods save a life. So now, is it better to prevent bloodcells from behaving like they do or just ease what they cause? That you must decide.
CV made my penis 1/20 its normal size. When i was able to walk for 10 minutes again i took a nitro oxide sex performance drug. I become normal sized in 3 hours, but it changed my blood pressure from very low to very high 210/110 at rest for 4 days.
Thanks for the video. Are there are known cases of non-covid19 coronvirus to your knowledge that has the same effect on ACE2?
Great reporting on this, and sleuthing out a better truth. So, to recap: It infects the epithelial lung cells,
It infects the t-lymphocyte cells, marking them for destruction because the v!ruses spike pr0teins get incorporated into the cell wall of the T-lymphocyte when the v!rus gets its RNA into the t-lymphocyte’s cytoplasm. (Is this why 30% of recovered patients in Hong Kong didn’t have many if any antibodies? Because of a lack of t-lymphocytes, or would other lymphocytes be involved in antibody creation and production?)
Now we are hearing that thrombosis is also prevalent because of the v!ruses ability to take out ACE2 in the endothelial blood cells.
This illness is like no other I’ve ever heard of. It attacks the immune system, the lungs, the cardiovascular system, the brain. This seems like a chronic illness as well as an acute one because it has multiple pathways to mortality. Paths which could potentially take years to play out. How many will make it through? I fear not many.
If oxidative stress is a key factor with Covid 19, then shouldn’t mega doses of I.V. Vitamin C reduce or even eliminate this sub-issue within the spectrum of Covid 19 issues and prevent many of the deaths from occurring?
I read in the news many people infected get reinfected. Is it possible that there is no way to create a vaccine?
Might be worth looking at

VOD complication post BMT where heparin was extremely difficult to use to treat and almost all patients died of this complication before they used defibrotide vascular drug off label with a lot of success.
My question is, how come people are asymptomatic before becoming hypercoaguable and stroking out?
I look forward to all of your excellent updates and have watched all 61 ! Both Dr Sircus and Dr Mercola have featured articles on Molecular hydrogen’s use for Covid-19. In addition refer to the 2019 article “A new approach for prevention and treatment of Cardiovascular Disorders. Molecular Hydrogen Significantly reduces the effects of oxidative stress”. Given update 61 I would be interested in your take on this and please keep producing these great video’s !
Love it! I’ve been saying since the beginning that if children are far less affected and more men than women die AND that people with metabolic disorders being the sickest patients that we would eventually see a bigger role of oxidative stress in mortality. So there it is. Thanks! Oh. I’m a layman, so I not suggesting at all to understand how any of that works. I’m just super thrilled to see doctors and scientists working all of.this out. It gives me hope.
Wow it seem like a full DIC going on 🙈
My husband was positive for COVID for more than 5 weeks when he had a major bad turn. (High fever, rigors, body pain). At ER he had high D-dimer low WBC, low Platlet. They said coagulopathy and sepsis. He tested negative for active corona virus. Spent 8 days at the hospital while receiving high dose antibiotic, multiple MRIs, and scans. They never addressed the microthrombi possibility. They did administer LMWH one time upon my request. Can anyone tell me what type of doctor would be the best to follow up with? I wish that all doctors could be as current on the research as this doctor.
So why not treat with rhACE2?
This blood clot stuff is scary as heck. What the hell man. I haven’t even watched the video yet but I heard about it. Ugh.
I truly hope those on the front line are able to see your videos! Your research is beyond a doubt saving lives!! THANK YOU ❤️ GOD BLESS you and all the other health care workers out there 🙏
Best video i ever watched on Youtube.
Allows me to theorize why 88% of ventilator ICU patients were reported to be succumbing at a major NYC hospital system: L types! Correlates with the sudden new attention being received by the proportion succumbing to strokes. What it leaves me wondering is if this represents a pattern shift, and if it is related to a different strain or to treatment protocols.
CytoDyn Announces Vyrologix as Proprietary Name for Leronlimab as a Combination Therapy for Highly Treatment Experienced HIV Patients in the United States
do you teach medical school? you should
If you want to compare mortality of a drug, be honest and compare groups with comparable severity that only vary in drug administration. Until you have proof, real proof, your statements based upon results you see in your icu are not scientific and only disuading people from a treatment.
Apples and oranges doc. The paper you stated before suffers the same lack of logic and a double blind study needs to be done to stop the rigidity of human bias.
Rational explanations to possibly explain some symptoms :
1. Blood clots from sitting for weeks/months on end without sufficient exercise.
2. Rashes on the body from excessive/improper cleaning using bleach and/or other chemicals.
3. Loosing sense of smell from allergies (this might be a long shot).
*Note*
I said “possibly explain” so that means I have no idea if COVID-19 is actually causing these symptoms, I’m just thinking outside the box. I am open for a discussion, not a bashing. Thanks, be well.
Could Vitamin C IV neutralize the oxidative stress and prevent the cascade of events leading to clotting?
This is the first explanation of what is actually going on with the blood. Thank you for taking the time to explain this.
IV NAD?? At least IV C, but the doses I’ve seen aren’t high enough. The Shanghai protocol used 6g, 4x per day. 24g/day. Even that is on the low side, per a brilliant biochemist friend. Why are people so afraid of high dose IV C?
Ace 2 regulates fibrosis, immune cell recruitment and attatchment as well…
Hi I have a question regarding COVID19, Im 30 year old male with very mild asthma, 2 week ago I had very similar symptoms to Covid, I had sweat chills and first day I had also breathing problems on my lungs that was mild and was hurting from behind where lungs are, 1-4 day was very hard to lay on my back it was hard to breath, and after 8-9 days it went away, I never went in Hospital to check if I was positive but Im pretty sure it was Covid, because it was nothing like asthma attack, I used my inhaler steroid and non steriod one, and it was barely helping me, it was defintly something I never had in my life, Im also not nervous person to had panic and breathing problems. When I called my doctor she told me that there were similar symptoms in younger people. I would love to hear your opinion as professional. Thank you
why would anyone give these video’s a thumbs down?
Thank you for such an informative captivating presentation. Question from a lay person: given these findings , would there be benefits/contra indication to prescribing regular aspirin or other anti-coagulant as a rule in covid-19 patients? Or as a preventative measure?
Wow another stellar viedo when this all first happend I feel that alot of young people were overlooked and deemed as not that serious I personally think that needs to change.
Confounding states exist in the covid-19 clotting evidence.
An easier way to look at it is that since Covid-19 is so widespread, *it’s meaningless to develop a whole chain of assumptions without clear causality.*
If the numbers are 33% percent of the population infected, 15% or even just 5% (no research went under that), than it MUST be that it will correlate with any situation, and once it does, we can try and supply any explanation towards any conclusions we’ll set forth.
That is why quercetin is so good… It is a zinc ionophore, reduces oxidative stress, reduces virus binding, and reduces inflammation and histamine.
Hey doc … as someone working with BCBS on the statistics, I would to GRUMBLE LOUDLY about the listing of, and adding to, statistics for Positive Tests for SAARS-COV-2 as “Cases” of Covid-19. Am I wrong to complain about this? It would greatly help us nerds provide better actionable analysis IMO, if we didn’t consider EXPOSURE to the virus, without symptom or presentment to the health system, as “Cases” lumped in with actual symptomatic folks.
I thought the Virus was SAARS-COV-2, and they Syndrome was Covid-19 … please help untangle this – am I wrong about the separate definitions? Cuz we might find some good information to send up the pipe for action or “triage” of population groups – the better the data, the better the inferences, normally speaking. Thanks.
the explanation of what capacity is lost when sars-cov2 binds to ace2 receptor was eye opening
Quercetin!
NEW TREATMENT — famotidine available aka pecid ac is being used for covid 19 . good luck finding it. it has been on backorder since beginning of march. hospitals are using it in severe cases with 10x normal dose IV. but if treated early sure 40mg dose TID could work.
So it starts out by saying healthy 20-30 year olds are dropping dead from Covid-19 strokes and ends up by saying the obese sand cardiac patients are in trouble. Sounds like everyone is screwed.
History will not remember “president” Trump or the GOP kindly at
all – they will be a cautionary tale for future generations about
how ignorance and the denying of science can destroy a nation and kill
people Trump really is the most incompetent President this nation has
ever had known. TRUMP.. UNSTABLE NON-GENIUS NARCISSIST KNOWN LIAR! …
“COME NOVEMBER AMERICANS WILL REMEMBER!” Your president wants all the
authority, none of the responsibility. Trump Death count keeps going up
daily!
Well done. Thanks.
I feel like everybody should be watching these videos. From a common citizens standpoint, this video series is the BEST information I am coming across.
Thank you very much Dr 🙏
What are some good OTC blood thinners during covid19 that can be taken instead of aspirin? Is low dose aspirin ok?
When do you sleep Doctor?
I Think a plant based diet can be a mayor solution to preventive and outcomes in patients with covid19 much more with fruits and foods rich in antioxidants because of the oxidative stress and the foods are rich in salycilates and are also the solution to chronic illness like hipertension and diabetes
I’m using blood pressure pills that also help with a heart that doesn’t work properly. I’m going to be the last person alive on this planet.
Wow!, this is incredible!!
Glad you are figuring out more and more!!
Awesome!!!
I’m just surprised so many people, especially Doctors, are buying the story that this virus occurred naturally.
Nicotine patch study…please share.
Any idea how long the loss of smell lasts?
Also are these young people really fat and unhealthy?
Reports today from the uk of an increase in PICU admissions with children presenting with what looks like a combi of Kawasaki disease and dic. Presenting with strawberry tongue, skin rash, dirrhoea and endocarditis. It has been likened to feline infectious peritonitis- which is a coronavirus related disease.
Hey cases fell in places that weren’t locked down as well. How do you explain that?
Your videos are great. Greetings from Zürich. How does it impact the body of kids, Specially the 3 year old? Also what is the timeliness for this to come into picture from the onset of the symtoms?
I’m not involved in medicine, but this interested me a Iot, is it possible to give bolus doses of angiotensin 1-7 and would it help? Or is there something similar that could be given to those patients to eliminate those highly oxidative molecules? Like i dunno, some vitamins intravenously or something?
Thank you. That was clear and contained important analysis.
A friend of mine from high school was 33 and died from a blood clot. He had been on the ventilator for a couple weeks.
Has the virus changed? Seems like new issues are showing up,, especially in the young. Where the young were not effected much at first there now having what seems to be unexpected new problems like the clotting.
Hey, why is it that vwb factor binds with factor 8 and not 7? Since factor 7 is the one involved in the extrinsic coagulation pathway? (ex: when epithelial cells get damaged)
If you were not so needed on the front lines, you’d make an excellent professor in medical school, if you’re not. If I get SARS-COV-2, I will ask to be transferred to you care. I have medivac insurance! Thanks.
Wonderful video. Thank you so much for these. I’m not a doctor but I’m wondering if you are noticing any difference with patients already on ACE inhibitors or ARBs? Good or bad. I’m not looking for a Doctor’s advice here. To be clear I would never stop taking my blood pressure medication; I would see my doctor to switch if I had a concern. Id just like the technical answer, if you can. Thank you. 🙏
Really wish you had the ear of those making political decisions. This is really important info. Thanks for all your hard work here and with patients!
Was this supposed to be easy to understand by everyone???

Receptor usage of SARS-CoV and SARSr-CoV
ACE2 binding is a critical determinant for the host
range of SARS-CoV72,73. Electron microscopic studies
have shown that the SARS-CoV S protein forms a clo-
ver shaped trimer, with three S1 heads and a trimeric S2
stalk74,75. The RBD is located on the tip of each S1 head.
The RBD binds to the outer surface of ACE2, away from
its zinc-chelating enzymatic site77,141 (Fig. 6a). Different
SARS-CoV strains isolated from several hosts vary in
their binding affinities for human ACE2 and conse-
quently in their infectivity of human cell
Nice bio weapon!
Hi Doc, thank you so much for the excellent content – do you or anyone have a link to the H and L lung problems described ?
Age 72 in had stoke.
is it possible to flood a covid 19 patients’ system with the enzyme ACE2 as a sacraficial bond to the virus and give our immune system time to develop anti-bodies? or is this a stupid idea?
I have moved from ace inhibitors to calcium channel blockers for the duration. I think there are potential risks for me but I think it will be ok as long as I am under control. Thank you so much for your work it is truly instructive. Your leadership is greatly needed in our community ( lucky for us you are in my community – yay) I would love to meet you when this is all over.
Thank you for this very valuable video
So are preventive (N)OACs the answer? Do AFIB patients develop less strokes and heart attacks?
https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/angiotensin-converting-enzyme-2
Zinc is a metalloenzyme for Ace2. Covid-19 binds away the Zinc from Cell.
This is where the loss of taste and smell comes from. The ace2 cells in the nose and mouth are infected.
This is fantastic! One question I have relates to your brief mention of your hydroxychloroquine and zinc protocol. Do you think if it was introduced earlier in the disease process it would have a greater impact? Similar to the utilization of antivirals like Remdesivir, the earlier it is used the greater the impact?
Yes, many doctors who are using this treatment are suggesting to use it earlier before it gets worse. For example, if you had the flu, you have to treat it before it gets worse.
Hi. I had a heart attack caused by spontaneous coronary artery dissection which resulted in a double bypass a little over a year ago. I supposedly do not have heart disease but does my heart history put me at high risk? Just curious what your opinion is. I hope you can respond to this. Thanks.
Very interesting hypothesis!
I have a question: How would the catastrophic sequence of interactions you describe in the video be different in patients taking the anti-coagulant Xarelto (which AFAIK modulates the xa factor)?
I wanna know what does this mean for people who have thrombocytosis, does taking medications like plavix or warfarin help at all??
Don’t understand most of the info.Just get thats it is serious.
Thank you.
My husband is 67,diabetic and overweight.
we will continue to be cautious.
Thank you Dr.
Very well done!
Anticoagulants are now seen as one of the main treatment in some hospitals in Europe.

Thanks Dr and Medcram. As not the fittest guy out there these videos have inspired me to get healthier and make a change in lifestyle and diet.
Is this why we see photos of people who’ve dropped dead in the streets, or drivers who’ve died at the wheel? Sudden CVA’s!
Do You think the bruses on fingers on hands and feet can be related to this?
What is your perspective on how the virus “degrades” the Ace 2 receptor? Are you saying the virus is destroying the receptor? How? Where does Furin factor into this? Is it irreversible in its binding? Have any studies been accomplished to see how the receptor is altered, or is it an effect of ion induced membrane permeation alteration?
I’m a neuro (though not a neurosurgeon) in NYC & we’re definitely seeing strokes in patients in their 30s & 40s. It’s very upsetting. These patients aren’t feeling sick enough to go to the hospital. If they did, they’d be given LMWH (Lovenox) or some similar anticoagulant. We’re of course seeing pulmonary embolism, as well. Please treat your covid patients with anticoagulants. Please also get the word out that ANYONE who notices a blood clot at home, whether in their leg, arm, etc., should call their doctor.
Thank you for this important information and recommendation from NYC. To clarify, are the strokes and PEs you’re seeing in patients in their 30s and 40s in conjunction with positive COVID-19 tests?
Wow.. now we know why people with cardiovascular disease do not make it through
Thank you doc for your great service. You’re a real hero.
Hi Dr. Dr Cameron at NYC ICU observed that the localised regional signs of clot around the lungs and alveolar were relieved by oxygen treatment citing diffusion problem. He also mentions that he did not observe any increase in pulmonary pressure and wondered how enriched oxygen treatment was highly effective. Im wondering how likely this is actually something simpler, sickle cell trait from low oxygen uptake in haemoglobin. Im also thinking if this is the case direct intervention by nitric oxide may help the localised clot and allow better diffusion of oxygen without further stress from ventilator pressure less bleeding and more oxygenation less clot. Have this been taken into account it may well be sickle trait esp with the prevalence in mortality in African Americans. Seems like a double whammy low vitamin d weaker alveolar wall resistance and immune response and deregulation of IL6 and high presence Sickle trait?
Wow, this is one of your best videos yet. They’re all great, but this is really putting together the complicated evidence and reaching a plausible conclusion. We’ll soon see if it’s born out or if there are even more twists and turns. Great and thanks.
nice tie in between type H and type L. Such valuable information, analysis, and dissemination.
Another amazing video! Clearly explained, interesting for further study and my hope is that enough policy makers are watching, learning and thinking rather than just speculating about drinking Clorox etc.!
Very interesting……and concerning
Does this impact upon your previous suggestions in respect of ace2 inhibitor drugs?
ANOTHER Great presentation!
Well done! Getting closer to unpacking all of the avenues of this tricky virus. Many CC Physicians have observed patients with high red blood count and symptoms similar to altitude sickness or decompression sickness. This discussion answers a lot of questions and reveals some of the mechanisms involved, hopefully leading to more effective treatments.
Kindly reveal if ARBs could serve any purpose, especially olmesartan. Also is it sure that this virus doesn’t enter through any other receptor apat from ACE2?
So what about those of us who have a clotting factor and are taking a healthy dose of anti-coagulant already? I have had a serious clotting issue, Anti-Thrombin III Deficiency to be exact, since I was 19 (now 52) with several deep vein events and pulmonary emboli (saddle clots specifically). So I have been taking Coumadin for the past 33 years.
I would assume your advice is don’t get COVID19. But my question really is about being on a therapeutic dose of warfarin already, or even the potential of LMW Heparin such as Lovenox…. benefit?
You are THE BEST!! You explain biochemistry so even I understand it.
THANK YOU!!
How and which blood factors would betablockers affect? Is an irregular heart beat a symptom? Would you recommend betablockers for a patient that shows up with irregular heart beat during this epidemic?
Since top academics and physicists do no understand causality of gravitation and enertia, no wonder that top medical scientists have only cursory understanding of the job they do, thanks (in part) to the government control on science and medicine. One thing is clear, however, – had scientists and government workers faced unemployment or even paycheck cut (like millions of other Americans), then they would had come out with “scientific” justification (backed by graphs, charts and endless lectures) that quarantine is not needed and masks, gloves and distancing is enough.

ACE2 and PM2.5
My heart is smaller than size normally required for my height. I know if i catch this then i’m a definitely gonner. Am i worried? Not the least bit. Life is meant for living, loving and helping.
So the disease kills everyone it touches?
As I understand it, the treatment with hydroxychloroquine and zinc should be applied as soon as symptoms of the COVID-19 are present (and at the same or later time verified by testing). This is time , *before* hospitalization is required, when the treatment produces the best results. Shouldn’t this fact be clearly elucidated when examining results of this treatment?
I’m on an ACE inhibitor 20 mg once daily. Is that good or bad? Do ACE inhibitors help or hurt?
The way hydroxychloroquine works against malaria is that it blocks the entry of the malaria factor from the parasite into the blood vessel where it otherwise replaces the haem iron which when released is a powerful oxidant which is then released provoking a cytokine storm. It is presumed that it also acts this way against Cov-2. So have any of the patients you discuss her received hydroxycloriquine at this stage of the infection and with what results?
Good video. It’s worth noting that hypoxia alone can cause hypercoagulation, even without the contribution from the virus attacking ACE2. Similarly, chronic hypoxia can cause blood vessel endothelial cells to fill with fluid (the mechanism involves a breakdown in the oxygen-driven Na/K pump), which further impairs oxygen exchange in the capillaries. In addition, it’s interesting that endothelial cells get their oxygen from plasma, not from hemoglobin, so achieving high paO2 is crucial. A possible treatment is Oxygen Multistep Therapy (O2MT) — 15 mins of 90 to 100% FiO2 + exercise as tolerated.
Dude u r a legend !
Your presentations are extremely informative and current. I really enjoy watching as you unfold the mystery of this virus.
MEPRONxZITHROMAX4LIFE
2500 deaths for a country like Canda is way too high. Something odd must happen there. Perhaps the spread much higher even if not tested.
Blood thinners. Still following @
10:50! 😦🤪🙂
Does vitamin-C has any positive effect on these patience? Vitamin-C is a safe antioxident.
Outstanding!
Seems to me this is just the wrong time to pull back on the preventive measures. I am so sorry to see it. By end of May, we would be in much better shape.
I found this study interesting (ACEI/ARB Use in COVID-19 Patients With Hypertension) https://www.acc.org/latest-in-cardiology/journal-scans/2020/04/24/12/22/association-of-inpatient-use-of-angiotensin
From the study that you cited, it seems like they were initially using Dalteparin at prophylactic dose but it did not really work and then they were switched to unfractionated heparin (I am assuming drip). Have you guys used Lovenox and if noticed any difference and what about Eliquis…? We have been sending them home on eliquis for 2 week duration… so far so good… but what are you guys experiencing? Thank you
I read with interest the same subject matter in an article on WebMD by Brenda Goodman, MA about clots killing infected patients by attacking the Endothelium. A research letter published this week in the British Medical Journal, The Lancet describes autopsies performed on deceased COVID-19 infected patients showing evidence of the virus invading the endothelium cells, leading some doctors to say the virus isn’t just a disase of the lungs, but one also of the endothelium or endotheliitis. One doctor is quoted as saying that by the time you have blood clots in the patient, treating them with blood thinners isn’t going to work most of the time. A possible alternative worth trying might be to give patients drugs to support the endothelium, like ACE inhibitors and statins, along with anti-inflammatory drugs to tackle the cytokine storm, early in the course of the disease, but as with everything COVID-19 related, more research is needed to know for sure.
I would like to comment on health care for family members. I have researched extensively viral infections and here’s the consensus. This is a practical list of things to do to protect your family from the Covid 19 disease (or any infections disease).
In addition to wheatgrass/pineapple juice we are each taking 1000iu vit. D3, along with 15 min. direct exposure to the sun (early or late in the day is best). 15mg. zinc, 500mg. quercitin (very important), and of course 2000mg. vit. C daily (1000mg. after breakfast then 1000mg. after lunch).
To insure proper immune system function you need 8 hours sleep minimum nightly, 7 hrs. will not do it. This will significantly reduce your chance of infections.
Hydrate constantly as the danger is viscous mucus buildup in the lungs, which can be thinned with sufficient water in the diet and coughed up (this means 2 to 4 liters of clean water daily for adults, half that for children, and 8 to 16 ounces for nursing infants).
If you are congested, sit up in bed, do not lay down, and try to walk some in the daytime if at all possible (assisted if necessary).This helps reduce fluid buildup in the lungs.
Hot and cold showers (sauna, hot tubs, etc.) are effective in activating the immune system, see Medcram on YT.
Absolutely eliminate coffee, caffeine and carbonated beverages in your diet. Try to seriously reduce meat and sugar consumption if not able the eliminate them altogether, (if you are not already low glycemic vegan).
Reduce stress through periods of exercise followed by periods of relaxation (30 to 40 min. daily is enough).
If a cough develops, mince three entire heads (not cloves) of raw peeled garlic in a cup of good honey (agave syrup if you don’t do honey) add a cup of Braggs organic apple cider vinegar, mix well and marinate overnight, refrigerate and do not strain, sip slowly from a teaspoon frequently as needed. Garlic is antiviral and vinegar opens up the alveoli in the lungs to receive oxygen, the honey will immediately southe the throat and stop spasms.
For breakfast lightly boil up some fresh ginger tea and serve with lemon wedges. Don’t wait for a cough to start the ginger tea, make it a daily habit starting now.
In a worse case scenario (let’s hope for the best, but logic dictates we must prepare for the worst) have on hand chloroquine (or one of its derivatives) administer 200mg. every 12 hrs. for 5 days, this will prevent the virus from replicating in the body. Remember,
12 dosage for children and only follows doctor’s orders for infants. (IF there was no doctor available, and IF it was my child, AND they were dying, WITHOUT HESITATION, I would prescribe 10 mg. every 12 hrs. for 5 days).
DO NOT take fever reducers such as ibuprofen (the worst) or acetaminophen (Tylenol, Panadol etc.). These actually increase the susceptibility to viral infections.
Danger signals are when acute respiratory distress sets in, this in when there are 20 to 30 breaths per minute ( one breath = in and out), normal is 12 to 20. Or when the pulse rate is elevated above the normal of 90 beats per minute at rest. Or when there is a consistent gradual increase in body temperature. This is when you need medical assistance.
https://youtu.be/zu_d5kLzpko
Should we be recommending everyone start taking daily prophylactic aspirin?????? (given the info you discussed, maybe we are missing the boat here)
Oh hell! It wasn’t scary enough already!
So in this setting of ACE receptor being attacked would the ACE and ARB meds be contraindicated? I know it has been discussed but what are you seeing clinically?
Are you using Ivermectin in the ICU? It seems the studies or anecdotal information were good in the ICU setting? And what is your experience? Thank you for what you are doing. (retired MD).
Covid 19 & Ozone Therapy in Italy
April 26 2020
Currently in Italy there are some very positive developments with COVID-19 treatment.
There’s been very little reporting on this in the US media.
This email/article is an attempt to ‘pass-on’ this information from its various sources.
Currently, as reported by Prof Giovanni Ricevuti – Università di Pavia – Italy, Department of drug sciences, (as of April 25th) 30 Italian hospitals are using Ozone Therapy as a treatment on small, but growing numbers of Patients.
Around April 1st there was a ‘First Report’ by SIOOT (Scientific Society of Oxygen Ozone Therapy) successfully treating 10 patients, in serious or very serious condition, with an 11th patient dying who was already in critical condition.
The treatment occurred in a hospital in Bergamo.
A ‘Second Report’ by SIOOT released on April 9th reports results successfully treating 39 out of 46 patients, in serious or very serious condition, with 5 deaths of patients who were already in critical condition.
A ‘Third Report’ by SIOOT released on April 24th reports results successfully treating 61 patients, in serious or very serious condition, with 7 deaths of patients who were already in critical condition.
Significant recovery for all of these patients was in 5 to 7 days. This compares to 15 or more days typical for current treatments.
The 3 reports were written by Prof. Luigi Valdenassi Presidente SIOOT
and Prof. Marianno Franzini Presidente SIOOT International.
(Please contact me to receive the reports: [email protected]
How in this world, Doctors like Mr Seheult can be a regular doctor and you see your country being led by a bunch of retards?, I have been following for a while his videos/lectures and I really appreciate his professionalism. I red this article in Spain that they treat a patient with ozone (hemotherapy) and he recover in 72 hours, could it be related that in this way virus was deactivated by ozone, never saw any more data published about it in any other place. Also how kindly he never gets into politics that amazes me.
DIC is a well recognized complication of influenza with or with out bacterial pneumonia
Excellent video on blood clots and strokes in COVID-19 patients!
Thank you for this insight into the potential underlying causes of the ground glass lung symptoms. It is through this inquiry we can begin to understand how COVID-19 actually works, which can lead us to effective treatments that save lives. Also, it can help us learn to protect our ACE-2.
Talk to judy mikovitz microbiologist book the plague
What can someone do to avoid these issues with oxidative stress ? Besides avoiding cardiovascular issues diabetes and obesity .. are there supplements or activities that can reduce your propensity to develop such risky baselines stress ?
Please use ozone and asea redox molecules
Yup it affected my heart big time, i suspect it tanks potassium
How is it that obesity is a risk factor? I understand HTN and Diabetes, but does it happen in an obese patient who doesn’t have any associated comorbidities?
Could cayenne have an impact with coagulation problems?
Brilliant.
Respect.
Happy to have you back. You are so couragous to go back in the hospital and then come back and give us first hand account. Also, I was wondering what you think of the use of famotidine in treatment of COVID-19? Salutations de Montréal!
I am really stupid. If virus are not living how can they do all this?
All living things are pretty much super-complicated and advanced chemistry, so the border between non-living and living organisms is blurred and arbitrary by definition.
It is possible that simpler life-forms/advanced chemicals form by pure chance by exploiting some already existing biological mechanism, in this case by tricking cells of getting infected and then hijacking cell-replication mechanism to make new virons that continue the cycle.
Virus exists only to replicate itself – therefore only reason why it exists is just because it can. All other effects – which include severe illness and death, are rather “side effects” of sorts where existing mechanism for replication can do things that virus did not develop to do, which in the case of this video, is damaging blood vessels.
I wonder if there would be merit to administering high dose of vitamin C, since it does act as an antioxidant. Or, perhaps some other water soluble antioxidant.
Well it seems that blood clots are to be expected…as you pointed out in your previous video. That is since one of the “by products” of the “Cytokind Storm” is the production of a chemical..which you mentioned produces clots in the blood? Also, when cells are destroyed they become emitters of coagulating particles:
“Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)
Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a serious disorder in which the proteins that control blood clotting become overactive.
Causes
When you are injured, proteins in the blood that form blood clots travel to the injury site to help stop bleeding. If these proteins become abnormally active throughout the body, you could develop DIC. The underlying cause is usually due to inflammation, infection, or cancer.
In some cases of DIC, small blood clots form in the blood vessels. Some of these clots can clog the vessels and cut off the normal blood supply to organs such as the liver, brain, or kidneys. Lack of blood flow can damage and cause major injury to the organs.
In other cases of DIC, the clotting proteins in your blood are consumed. When this happens, you may have a high risk of serious bleeding, even from a minor injury or without injury. You may also have bleeding that starts spontaneously (on its own). The disease can also cause your healthy red blood cells to fragment and break up when they travel through the small vessels that are filled with clots.e dead matter in the body. When this happens that dead material emits coagulants that can cause MASS coagulation in the body (DIC – Distributed Intervascular Coagulation)”
Why aren’t the 96% of US inmates that have covid19 but have no symptoms and are not sick. What do they not have that the public do have making the public sicker. This shows that there is something realy sneeky going on, too cull.
I heard it’s because the pressure on the ventilators is too high. It’s killing them. Just what I heard, from another doctor.
You are by far the best chanel for information about Wuhan flu.
Keep up your exellent work and all the best to you and your patients.
Hope for soon results over Hcq+Zink+Azm used as prophylactic/early therapy.
Now we need to know what to eat and not to eat if we want to thin out our blood. Better be safe than sorry!
Cigarettes are for the moment the most successfull “treatment” to prevent Covid-19.
Active smokers are 75(!)% less likely to be infected compared to people not smoking.
Sounds extremly counter intuitive, but somehow Sars2 doesn’t like nicotine or something else in tobacco smoke. Maybe nicotine does something with the ACE2 receptor.
Here some preprint studies:

Is eosinophilic inflammation in bronchial secretions protective?helps explain why smokers,certain asthmatics,COPDs not as severely affected as other co-morbidities by reducing viral load
Intravenous Vitamin C and other anti-oxidants.
As I understand it, people with Insulin Resistance have High Levels of Insulin and Glucose in their Blood. This is ALREADY contributing to Oxidative Stress and the Diseases of Metabolic Syndrome (Hypertension, Cardiovascular Disease, Stroke, Diabetes, Obesity, Kidney Disease, Liver Disease, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and a Host of Autoimmune Diseases) even BEFORE the SARS- CoV-2 infection. COVID-19 just makes the existing Oxidative Stress much WORSE. 😾 That is why these Comorbidities are associated with serious complications.
But What CAUSES Insulin Resistance and the Chronic Diseases of Metabolic Syndrome? ONE THING – the Chronic Hyperinsulinemia (High Blood Insulin). It’s ALL About the INSULIN! 🙉 But what causes Chronic Hyperinsulinemia? It is caused by consuming a Diet TOO Rich in Carbohydrates (Sugars & Starches),as well as eating TOO Frequently during the Day. The majority of the World’s Chronic and Autoimmune Diseases are caused by an improper DIET! 🙀
What to DO about this? MANAGE your Insulin by following a Healthy Ketogenic Diet with Intermittent Fasting. 👈 By EATIING the Low Carbohydrate, WHOLE ketogenic-approved Foods (see https://www.drberg.com/blog/ketogenic-diet-plan-food-list-cheat-sheet-pdf ), the High Blood Sugar and resulting High Blood Insulin spikes are prevented. This allows Intermittent Fasting for the rest of the Day to further lower Blood Insulin and Blood Sugar back to Optimal Levels and KEEP them there until the next Meal on the following Day. These Foods can also supply Complete Nutrition (whether you choose the Vegan, Plant-Based Omnivore, or Carnivore options) as well as Support the Immune System.
So don’t just sit around and wait for COVID-19! Actually DO SOMETHING that can significantly improve your chances in less than one month (even if you are severely Insulin Resistant to Diabetic). Choose to be in the group with minimal or no symptoms, rather than going to the Hospital and being put in ICU on a Ventilator. Food IS Medicine – just without the nasty Side Effects! 😷
This is mind-blowing.
Professor Salvatore Spagnolo Italian cardiologist, surgeon, and expert in pulmonary embolism has proposed administering Heparin to covid patients upon the onset of fever to prevent blood clots and it seems he has the support of a lot of experts here.
We are already doing this too!
IF someone is on blood thinners can this be of help? What about losartan? what about quercetin?
Late to the party…
In mid-February in NYC there was a huge spike of heart attacks.
https://abcnews.go.com/Health/epicenter-epicenter-early-heart-attacks-missed-coronavirus-warning/story?id=70354223
Very interesting, am curious as to the deference in death rates in countries around the world. Germany seems to have a high infection rate but the death rate is lower than neighboring countries. Are they in better health prior to becoming infected ,eat more nutritional foods or are they treating their patients differently?
Those happy hypoxics you said are showing sats in the low 90s or high 80s. I’ve heard of some showing sats in 50s, have you seen anything similar? Looking forward to the webinar.
Germany has the lowest death rate in Europe, why?
Awesome update Doc! It would seem that utilizing anticoagulents as part of an initial regimen would be a good approach to treating COVID-19 patients. Obviously, the more that we learn about this viral infection, the more complex it becomes. Hopefully, this will lead to a better treatment approach. Thanks for your videos……….Stay safe………….. 👍👍
thank you for this video and the whole series. Be careful out there
I enjoyed your clear and insightful explanation. Is a concomitant cytokine storm mediated by acute phase reactants also a possibility ?
Hello doctor! In one of the updates you mentioned that only 20% of the cases end up being hospitalised and a small percentage end up in the ICU and some of the people in the ICU die.
How come those are true when the percentage of death per closed cases is 21% ?
That those hospitalized and the original number were out of China as that’s all we had.
Also with the antibody testing it seems as though that a lot more than 80% are recovering without help. The 80% is more likely those that are symptomatic don’t need to go to the hospital.
I had read the Johns Hopkins articles on strokes just yesterday, I think. I found it very alarming. I am also interested in comments regarding what is being reported as the three distinct ‘strains’ of Covid-19 and where confusingly, the older type A is more common in the US and Australia, a younger type B is common in Wuhan and the type C being more common in Europe. I’ve been a subscriber for two months now. Thank you and your team for all your work.
Type B is most common in the UK . Most of Europe is B.
What is the best theory for respiratory illness seasonality? Warmth and sunshine seems to be mentioned frequently. I think it is spring and fall pollen impacts activating general immunity responses in hay fever sufferers. Because the immune system is already at war with pollen, it gets viruses at the same time and produces a temporary herd immunity effect. This is combined with a more hostile to the virus outdoor environment which reduces the percent of successful physical transfer to and from surfaces. It would be an interesting study to see if hay fever afflicted people are less likely to get spring infections compared to those that do not suffer hay fever. You would also have to take into account those that take antihistamines to account for any effects on immunity activity levels.
Good information
Well i m obese , i take Ramipril and have 30 years . If i have the virus i m dead for sure ..
100
Wow this is a tricky scary virus. Its like its programmed to move around and cause havoc. Great information once again thank you. Keeping my immune system up, vitamins, especially C and Zinc, not over with the Zinc. I share your video with friends from NY to Alabama to Texas and they all are amazed how you have broke it down so we can understand.
The puzzle pieces are all starting to come together.
Amazing work. Thank you.
I’m left wondering if there are any symptoms exhibited that might allow one to assess a rough estimate of D-dimer levels, and also if OTC preparations that are used in DVT Prophylaxis would be helpful [ https://www.researchgate.net/publication/8220107_Prevention_of_Venous_Thrombosis_and_Thrombophlebitis_in_Long-Haul_Flights_with_PycnogenolR ]
I can’t say for sure but it looks like N-acetylcysteine looks promising.
This is such a helpful video. I think it may save a lot of lives. Doctors and phlebotomists in some of the articles about the clotting phenomenon were confused about why covid patients blood in some cases was acting like glue basically… If it’s all the biochemistry outlined here, it could prevent a lot of sudden deaths from these “mystery clots” my dad is on keto diet, been on it for a while and Monday is his fasting day. I’ll give it about a week till his news sources pick up on this where he will continue to brag about how his diet is protective against Coronavirus. He’s not fond of the lockdowns, and not everyone can get on keto or a super blood-friendly diet overnight, but thank you for the work you are doing!
Black seed oil has a very interesting effect on blood as far as unsticking it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_1i63fDlzk
I have chewed on too many seeds myself and gotten an autoimmune reaction. I don’t know if the straight oil is safer.
Is it possible that somebody could have the clotting issues without presenting as ill otherwise? maybe we have to start assessing people’s blood for signs of morbidity in addition to the usual flu-like symptoms.
I love your presentations; they’re great.! The bad thing is that they make me a little sad, because my greatest desire was to be a doctor; but MANY circumstances against it, did not allow me.! I would love to listen to your presentations as a doctor. I have learned a lot from MedCram. I will not abandon your site ever… Keep the good work… GOD bless.
IV Vitamin C will help with the ROS. I absolutly agree with your findings. You sir have unlocked the secret. I started thinking. So you probably can have it in your viens without it getting to your lung blood system – would explain the asymptomatic spreaders. 2ndly my guess is women have different blood clothing mechanisms then men (as men were hunters and more prone to injuries in battles while women carry babies and unwanted blood clothing will result in misscarriage). 3rd you probably develope caugh later on after the diseas progreses – meaning you have it spread it for 5 days untill it hits the blood vessels around your lungs and you develop caugh and shortness of breath similar to high altitude sickness. Okay, enough evidence for me to declare it not a respiratory illness
I don’t think it’ll hit hard down in Australia. Compared to Europe I found it never really got cold, not even in the far south coast; Also, the cities are low rise, un-congested , clean and expansive with verdant public spaces. Aussie cities have low population density – I’d say least 5 times fewer people per squared unit compared to say British cities. Perhaps most important, there is an excellent health care system, one which based on my limited experience of it largely put the NHS (my yardstck) to shame.
A Dr. Zelenko in Monroe NY, treats right away with HCQ, Zinc, zpack. Good observed results. https://youtu.be/gJ6gUuMTGXU
Thank you sir 🇨🇦
excellent explanation, thanks for all the precise and interest information
Does Leiden Factor V exacerbate clotting from Covid 19?
corona virus come from America. they take political offense to china because they scare Chinese Power
I wonder if the virus effects hemoglobin, specifically. Is there any information on patients with hemoglobin abnormalities such as thalassemia?
I hope this virus disappears quickly and my earth gets better, I really miss playing with my friends
Given that these clots, strokes and MIs can strike a wide age range, you might want to explore dietary, lifestyle and medications that reduce the risk of those complications. I also wonder if this new evidence about ACE-2 might explain why this virus spares children. Does ACE-2 work differently in them?
There is controversy about how to treat these patients on a ventilator with peep vs. bipap. I’m an RN. You explained 3 different presentations in the lungs. What is the best approach for each? I find MedCram to be the most informative. Thank you. Maybe you could do a video just on how to ventilate each type. Maybe you have already?
So do these Ace 2 blood cells have anything to do with ace inhibitors of high blood pressure medication? And if so is that affecting people taking ace inhibitor high blood pressure medication? Is COVID-19 easier to catch if you’re on an ace inhibitor high blood pressure medication.
Are you aware of any research or anecdotal information about alkaline or acidic environment affects to the virus?
This a bit of an uniformed question but would upping the amount of antioxidants in the body decrease oxidative stress?
Hydroxy combo effective PRIOR to ICU level of illness at least from my reading, preventing progression to that level.
Roger what is your opinion on this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXargSbVp7E
Inside the bloodvesels there is a substance called heem, and the heem is connected directly to the diglebap receptor. The dinglebap receptor can get inflamed when the plumbus fails to activate the heem binds. When the virus alters the plumbus it can cause significant reduction in the bodies ability to produce schmeel21. Without the production of schmeel21 the patenient may have long term damage to their endothrimosis.
Are you a Nigerian prince?
Hydroxychloroquine is being started too late to be effective after the cytokine storm has started. A French study showed that it is effective if started immediately. God bless you in the name of my Lord Jesus Christ Kent J. Nauman ex-MD (axis I schizophrenia (chronic))
The schizophrenic spectrum of disorders is deliberate obfuscation in psychiatric theory. SCHIZOPHRENIA is a malicious synonym for METAPHYSICS, SUPERNATURAL, and THE SPIRIT WORLD. This is directly analogous to the N-word being a malicious synonym for Blacks, Negros Afro-Americans. “Religion” is organized schizophrenia, meaning the supernatural. On the internet compare “open vision” with “audiovisual hallucination” to see quickly what I mean.
I was certified as a back of the insane asylum psychotic by the Florida Board of Medicine which is the highest medical authority in Florida. Stanford University has YouTube videos by Professor of Neurobiology Robert Sapolsky who fills his classes full. His schizophrenia video says that the leading cause of homelessness is not drugs but schizophrenia. The most common symptom of schizophrenia is hearing a voice and the most common voice is Jesus Christ. Other symptoms include talking to inanimate objects and/or dead people. The Apostle Paul on the road to Damascus fits Dr. Sapolsky’s description perfectly. Acts 9:3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven: Acts 9:4 And he fell to the earth and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? Acts 9:5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. Gresham College in London England has a YouTube video on personality disorders where the speaker sudden stops and says “we cannot have all religious people on antipsychotic drugs.” Under DSM IIIr all religious beliefs were symptoms of schizophrenia however under DSM 5.1 some religious beliefs are allowed so just pew-sitting is not enough to make a diagnosis of schizophrenia under DSM 5.1. God bless you in the name of my Lord Jesus Christ, Kent J. Nauman ex-MD (axis I schizophrenia (chronic))
Warning psychiatric theory (PSYCHO the RAPIST) is fraudulent and injurious. Their optimal human being has been found. He is a psychopath who infiltrated the fertility clinics and had ~150 offspring. When I was in medical school psychiatric class learning about schizophrenia having its onset between 18-25 years, I said what about Moses talking to a burning bush? The psychiatric resident was stunned speechless. When I had just turned 40 years old, the Florida board of medicine revoked my medical license for Axis I schizophrenia (chronic) with the symptoms including believing in the blood of Jesus Christ, smiling and believing in God’s Word instead of DSM IIIr. Years later I was in my favorite coffee house when a man came up to me and said that he and his wife both majored in psychology so I said what about Moses talking to a burning bush? He said “Moses? Oh Yes, a mega-schizophrenic!” So I went to the public library looked up a book on psychoanalytic theory then looked in the index under God and religion where I found that both were treated as problems in castration. Therefore psychiatric theory has God in a sandwich which I call the SCHIZOPHRENIA-god-CASTRATION COMPLEX. Do an internet search on “religion is organized schizophrenia”, “DSM religion delusions” and “psychotic religious delusions” to see that I am correctly diagnosed. Therefore please do not call me an ignorant moron. God bless you in the name of my Lord Jesus Christ, Kent J. Nauman ex-MD (axis I schizophrenia (chronic))

Is anyone considering a study comparing whole food, plant exclusive, low fat, high carbohydrate nutrition versus standard American diet for COVID 19 patients?
carol sexton this episode made me think the same thing.
Oxidative stress? Maybe this is a job for vitamin C
The clotting like phenomena is also visible in Dengue patients? How are they treated? The hydrochloroquine, is used to treat malaria, dengue…, is it something similar
Still not hearing any mention of the ventilators themselves actually doing the killing here in the case of covid, many other doctors have been trying to get the truth regarding ventilator dangers out there but still many are ignorant and arrogant regarding them.
Hey Dr. Could you try vicks vaporub or patch I know you might think I’m joking but take me seriously I have a hunch. It doesn’t hurt just try it I don’t know how it will result for later cases but early cases I know it will work.
You know it’s interesting that you say that because I was just reading this study on the evaluation of surfactant-like effects of commonly used remedies for colds. check it out here’s the link.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6893231
The bottom line, he says, is that clotting is a feature of the COVID-19 syndrome. When it becomes a big problem, the disease is advanced and very severe. For that reason, treating the resulting blood clots probably won’t work.
He believes something worth trying might be to give patients drugs to support the endothelium, like ACE inhibitors and statins, along with anti-inflammatory drugs to tackle the cytokine storm, early in the course of the disease, but more research is needed to know for sure.
If COVID-19 is really an endothelial infection, Mehra thinks that also helps to explain why ventilators aren’t helping more patients. A study of 5,700 patients hospitalized with COVID-19 in New York City found that while just 12% needed a ventilator to help them breathe, 88% of those patients died.
“It’s not acting like influenza or other bacteria pneumonia where you get inflammation in the lungs and fluid buildup and very stiff lungs. That doesn’t seem to be the case, at least early on,” Poor says.
“The virus is acting as if its primary target is the endothelium,” he says.
That means the clots are just part of a much larger problem, one Poor says doctors don’t yet know how to solve. – Mandeep Mehra, MD, medical director of the Brigham and Women’s Heart and Vascular Center in Boston.

Very astute summary
We know nothing about the medicines these patients were receiving. Maybe it’s from medication.
You kinda left us hanging. Assuming oxidative stress is the actual cause of death in many/most ICU cases, what are some good candidates for treatment?
That’s what I need to delve into and there will be more coming on this
So is there any advantages for people in higher risk of infection areas to start a baby aspirin daily regimen as a prophylactic during the pandemic? Particularly people in their 30s and 40s?
I’ve started needing to take a Xanax before watching these vids. Don’t get me wrong, the vids are great! I don’t want the anxiety to contribute to a stroke!

our first patient in my city south Iran were presented with myocarditis . my patients in pediatrics presented with lymphopenia and petechia due to a drop in platelets
They really need to address all the bugs in the human body. They expect us to just use this alpha build of it and be happy with it.
When you say cardiovascular disease, does more benign things like mitral valve prolapse take part in that too?
@MedCram – Medical Lectures Explained CLEARLY okay, thank you for answering ❤
Not really it’s more along the lines of hypercholesterolemia obesity diabetes etc.
You gave 3 high risk categories. Wouldn’t you really want to also include smokers as part of this (a fourth category) that would have high oxidative stress? PS I absolutely love your channel and your lectures please keep them coming, you have done a wonderful
Thank you, Doctor.
I have followed you on YouTube since your first video. My husband got the virus quite early on ….on the 19th of March. He thankfully recovered at home within 10 days. I am a physiotherapist and so took all precautions with infection control and getting him the corrects meds etc. At that time there was not thats much scientific info on COVID-19. Your videos were a lighthouse in a storm. My hubby had that blinding headache you described in one of your videos. I am so grateful for everything you are doing and the information you are sharing in these Videos. I am sure it is a huge help to many. With Gratitude 🙏🏻
Could you comment on the theory that some Covid 19 cases could benefit being put into hyperbaric chambers or rooms that some hospitals have? These are the oxygen starved patients that are not doing well on ventilators which are damaging their lungs. Some doctors are suggest the conversion of wound care hyerbaric rooms, be used for these type of Covid 19 cases.
Sir, you are a genius! How to reduce oxidative stress? NAC?
@MedCram – Medical Lectures Explained CLEARLY thanks a lot for your answer. Looking foward the next videos about oxidative stress reduction. Keep up the good work! your videos are enlightening
That’s certainly one way
What about Dr Steven Quay’s Covid-19 Hope trial?
“This treatment uses drugs previously approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for other conditions: nebulized (inhaled as a fine mist) heparin combined with N-acetylcysteine (NAC), termed “H-NAC.”
A Seattle-based physician-scientist and inventor announced a new combination treatment with the potential to improve pulmonary function and reduce or eliminate mechanical ventilation in patients with a coronavirus infection.
https://www.coronavirustoday.com/covid-19-hope-trial-open-use-medical-community
What effect would ACE inhibitors have on the process described?
And bingo…. this oxidative stress explains why they are seeing such promising results with IV Vitamin C which is a potent antioxidant.
Wow some breakthrough stuff in this installment. Thank you!!
The JAMA paper link is missing 🙁
Thx, just added it to the description
how about taking a Turmeric supliment.?
I am beginning to believe that the hydroxychlorequine and the zinc are really only yseful early in the infection, only to prevent reproduction of the virus. When the viral load is already too large for the body to fight, it would seem it is ineffective, or at least, that is my theory.
Dr. Paul Herscu, ND, in his Herscu Epidemic Updates #12 April 12, 2020 (https://paulherscuepidemics.blogspot.com/2020/04/2019-novel-coronavirus-covid-19-part-xii.html), described these coagulopathies two weeks ago as being an upcoming realization concerning the sickest of the SARS-COV2 patients: “The third cause of death is Coagulopathies, which is when the blood has issues with clotting, either not clotting enough or over-clotting. This situation has also not been mentioned much yet, but will be shortly. In fact, I believe perhaps a very large majority of the patients that have died have had some element of coagulopathy. I believe this is an important piece of the puzzle. Often patients fulfill the criteria for DIC (disseminated intravascular coagulation) as per the International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH.) Oddly, despite thrombocytopenia (low platelets) and low fibrinogen levels, they do not bleed much at all. There are several treatment options here, including blood replacement, but it is unclear whether this might actually make things better or worse. And it is not clear why patients develop this, or if treatments are helping or not.
Very related to the issue of coagulopathy is the very important question and something that I am sure will be explored further going forward, is the effect of ACE-Is and ARBs in disease progression. There is heated debate of either or both drug classes either hindering or encouraging disease progression, via the ACE2 receptor. There are theories and quoted results on both sides of the debate. But if we leave this receptor site question aside for a moment, I think looking at potential coagulation issues that are modified by these classes of drugs, might help us better understand their role here. If there is DIC developing, and if they are not overly hemorrhaging, perhaps the potential benefits we may find from these drugs may relate to lowering coagulation problems. Just a thought.”
His primary role with his patients is keeping the severity of the disease where the constitution of the person can deal effectively and prevent hospitalization. His recommendations can be found at the same link above.
As a Classical Homeopath, he understands, as Dr. Seheult referenced weeks ago, the results of the 1918 Spanish Flu epidemic regarding those people treated by the group of Homeopaths in the USA at that period of time.

Also: when you say that diabetics have oxidative stress, would this also be true for a T2 diabetic with normal blood sugar levels? Or is the oxidative stress a result of the higher blood sugar levels commonly found in diabetics?
You did a good job with this.
So would not this mean that ibuprofen would be more beneficial rather then Tylenol? because ibuprofen has blood thinner affect?

Great info Doc!
So late stage patients should not take hydroxycloraquin to keep the ACE2 portals active in the blood vessels?
Wonderful content !!! Im subscribed now!!! Keep us more updated please on these blood cloths formations and possible treatment of this please🙏🙏🙏
The amount of cases is way off in the United States- I can tell you I had all the coronavirus symptoms back in December (I’m in California) and in March I got some type of GI issues and my doctor refused to test me. GI issues are also symptoms of coronavirus and I told my doctor that and she said “no GI symptoms are not symptoms of coronavirus. I told her well you better read up because they are. Told her to watch this channel. Whether she did it not I don’t know. So I’m probably not the only one that was refused testing especially if they went in with just GI issues. Just letting you know.
Thank you for your effort. I learned a lot about medicine from your channel. I have one question. Have you heard about Ozone Therapy? In my country it is used to treat Covid-19 patients. Can you say what information you have about such treatment? Is there any in USA?
complete and excellent lecture as always, thank you
Q: what other organs than lungs and blood vessels have ACE-2?
What happens if CV-19 gets into these organs?
heart, lungs, nose, GI, others
the two at bottom and one’s lol
So to combat this condition or possibility can one take Advil it is that worse because one us not supposed to take that for the Covid fever?
So it all comes down to good blood circulation. Other than taking VitC,D, Zinc rich food(unable to get supplement),onion with skin (quercetin) . I boil dry ginger with garlic for 1hour and drink on empty stomach with little honey or lemon and multiple times during the day. Hot foot bath upto ankle holding ice in the mouth at night to increase circulation. Dress very warm and drink hot liquids always. Always wear mask to keep my nostril warm and moist when i go out .
I saw a video with Dr. Zelenko where he said he starts his covid 19 patients on hydoxycloroqin, z pac and zinc phosphate early.
What I am genuinely curious about is viral dosing. Does it matter how much of the virus gets in your system? And how it gets in. ie eyes vs sinuses vs lungs?
BRILLIANT!
If I think I’ve gotten covid19, would it be a good idea to start taking L-ARGININE?
I just enjoy your podcasts so much. I as wondering about this subject. It explained it so well. Your videos are like lectures to me. Thank you for providing us all with a great learning experience!
Dr. Seheult, Is there any information on the effects of Covid-19 on patients with MPNs? I have polycythemia vera but am taking 20 mg of Xarelto daily and I’m wondering if I am especially at risk or not since I’m taking a blood thinner.
So no one is really bringing up any comorbidity for those few of us with Factor V Leiden, or deficiencies in protein C and protein S. I’m assuming it’s a high comorbidity.
More info on clotting cascade: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4260295/

Thank you for your insights and analysis!
Test and quarantine all infected people. DO NOT send infected people home. Quarantine them away from the hospital. Send only the severe cases to the hospital. Send only non contagious recovered patients home
I don’t take care of Covid-19 patients but I take care of patients with DM, HTN and obesisity, combined they have Met S. So I guide them to get off carbs. Get off commercial so called vegetable oils (to tremendously reduce chronic inflammation and Oxidative Stress) and exercise, mostly HIIT and provide all sorts of antioxidants like Vitamin D, A, K2, and most importantly Vitamin C (high doses) plus Zinc and Selenium. Basically provide them the best possible fighting chance for disease which has no cure (yet).
Thanks for being persistent in providing great knowledge in a very precise scientific way.
Wow, down the bronchial labyrinth.
How about people that smoke?
Is Australia giving their patients Ivermectin?
Knox i think ivermectin should be given outpatient IMMEDIATELY if fever/ cough with positive test just to eradicate some viral load. If it escalates to shortness of breath and hospital , then Hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin. I think when shortness of breath and ARDS , its too late. Tocilizumab seems to work also
They’re given HCQ drug combo.
Why would anyone dislike this video?
What’s really amazing is that for the billions people spend on healthcare, and taxpayer’s support of research institutions, medicine can offer nothing. This industry is a total fraud.
Dr., thank you. Is the community considering the administration of angiotensin II receptor blockers ?(micardis, etc)
Who 👎? I don’t understand🤷♂️
Do you think hydroxychloroquine should be given early, and do you think zinc is a critical part of treatment when hcq is given?
Yes, many studies show that the earlier the treatment, the more likely you’ll recover in several days. Zinc enters the cell where the virus is and kills it. Hydroxychloroquine is the key to opening the cell, so zinc can enter.
Is it plausible for thrombosis to precede pneumonia in this disease? I had a coronary thrombosis (unexplained by later hematology tests) followed by bilateral “intubation pneumonia” in the CCU. I assume it’s not COVID-19 because it doesn’t fit the epidemiological timeline (and because I don’t want to become the next target for conspiracy theorists), but the similarities intrigue me.
You make it look like drawing a picture with crayons. God bless you!
Some areas are surging, not plateaued.
Thank you once again for your informative and invaluable presentations. I’m also glad that you seem to be sounding much better.
This is genius keep up the good work and may God bless you and your family 👉 ✝
Hi. Thank you for the update. Could you discuss ACE inhibitors leading to less favorable outcomes in some patients?
From this video, the way you are discussing the studies seems to suggest (to a non-medical background) that the ACE2 deficiency causes cardiopulmonary issues in mice. While this study discusses ACE2 inhibitors in relation to an overabundance of “empty” receptors in lung tissue. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/03/200323101354.htm “Since patients treated with ACEIs and ARBS will have increased numbers of ACE2 receptors in their lungs for coronavirus S proteins to bind to, they may be at increased risk of severe disease outcomes due to SARS-CoV-2infections,”
The way I am understanding it, they are -effectively- the same issue, because SARS CoV-2 type viruses can plug into the “empty” receptor.
Sorry for the lay-persons analogy. But it helps me to see it as a physical socket and plug.
First of all, thank you for posting these, in such simple terms. I very much appreciate you give facts, and present, medical treatments, or other possible ways to look at things.
I have two possible topics to look at
1) the re infection of patients with Covid 19 ( any Chinese studies?)
2) side effects of having Covid 19. Can it do irreparable harm to people.
I have one question, what strain of the virus is in North America. Is it both?
I know that you are a very busy person. Although you are not a doctor in my chosen country, thank you for all your efforts in the hospital attending to patients. For me, we are all in this together.
Stay safe, be well
Proudly 🇨🇦

Was pondering today about the seasonality of corona viruses and how they “don’t like” heat and humidity. It seems to me, rather than heat, they are most susceptible to the intense UV light in the summertime. If being confined indoors is the major factor, then infections should be highest in the summertime in the southern states when the weather is most oppressive. It also seems since weather effects are mainly outdoors, and this is where the principle factor occurs for changing the Ro negative. I would posit that the main vector is not droplet air-born spread but rather surface spread- namely via the soles of shoes. The most highly infected places are probably the floors of heavily used public places where the most virus settles and the most likely place to encounter the virus. This is carried elsewhere on the soles of shoes thus the virus is spread to other buildings. However the virus is very susceptible to UV light, which can reach even the bottoms of shoes during normal outdoor walking , thus disinfecting it. If the virus does reach another building it is tracked inside, contaminates dust particles, becomes suspended in the air and is inhaled. High humidity “settles” the dust thus reduces the viral transmission.

Stupid question… I focus fairly heavily on endothelial health via my diet (i.e. plants high in antioxidants, no dietary oil). Is there any attempt to augment any medical treatment with known, natural vasodilators, such as beets, blueberries, dark purple vegetables (anthocyanin)?
This really shows us that we have so much more to learn about this virus and it’s affects on our systems. Learning these kind of things takes TIME. You can’t rush this kind of thing. It hasn’t even been half a year and the entire medical community is working on this. In order to defectively treat this, we have to have a complete understanding of what is going on and why. Lifting any of our in place quarantines now I think is a big mistake.
Why such an epidemic in NYC? Because Medicare pays out $5000. for ordinary pneumonia, $13,000. is that patient is labeled with Covid19 and $39,000 if a ventilator is used. Can you say SCAMDEMIC?
Isn’t it too late to administer an antiviral drug like hydroxychloroquine after a patient enters ICU? I’m under the impression that antivirals are most effective if administered early, after onset of mild symptoms.
I urge caution about trusting this recent rash of non-peer-reviewed studies of finger-prick non-laboratory antibody testing. They are *assuming* high specificity where none may exist. If the tests generate a lot of false positives, then conclusions based on those false positives about prevalence of the disease in the general population will be horribly wrong – leading to a dramatic underestimation of the true case fatality rate.
Thank you for these videos, they are most welcome.

I have a question about meat processing plants. First: Thank you for your service and care of infected patients, and for the service you do for the wider community in putting together these overviews.
I was wondering why meatpacking facilities throughout Canada and the US were so compromised by outbreaks . All the footage I see of workers there shows pretty good hygiene and protective wear. I know when I’m handling cuts of meat in my kitchen, I try to be pretty scrupulous about cleanliness and I don’t touch my face with the gore on my hands.
Then it hit me: Refrigeration.
Most meatpacking plants operate at low temperatures. The FAO and Canada Food Inspection Agency recommend temperatures of 10-12 C for meat processing facilities, and of course less than 4 C for refrigerating the meat. These are excellent temperatures for preserving virus and may allow the persistence of viral contamination in these environments far longer than in other room temperature (20 C) workplaces, or hotter ones, like restaurant kitchens.
From studies of the similar coronaviruses, high temperatures dramatically compromised viral survival (Chan doi.org/10.1155/2011/734690 on SARS) and low temperatures dramatically improved survival (Casanova http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2863430/ on TGEV and MHV). The latter study found that at 20C and humidity 20%, there was a 99% viral loss at 28 days. At 4C and humidity of 20% survival of the viruses to 28 days occurred with VIRTUALLY NO LOSS. 😳

FANTASTIC report, clearly explained. The middle part is way too technical for me but the beginning and end are great.
What a contrast with all the conspiracy theories and nonsense from on high. This virus is NO JOKE.
This is just getting more and more terrifying to be honest. Are people with blood clots reporting fever at all?
Sage advice Kenyon. I’ve been briefing my wife on a regular basis as well. As soon as I watched this update, the first thing I thought about is memorising this for the very same reason
Try to distance yourself from emotions and think factually. It’s what medical professionals have to do. Take the energy of your fear and organize it into bites of information to keep you and your loved ones safe. So, from this you want to take this for now: my loved on is in ICU, ask their diagnoses and then if rising d-diner ask if they are being put on heparin? In your mind attach lecture 61 to refer back to. Next, hydroxychloroquin zpac and zinc are ineffective, a waste, at the ICU stage of illness. Those 3 are like tamiflu, only useful at beginning of illness. Last thing, keep a cheat sheet on your phone or fridge of stroke symptoms.
You can do this, it’s like teaching you to give CPR or Choking treatment. Life happens, your calm action will save lives – Yours, family, and friends. Best wishes and Godspeed!
Dr. Vladimir Zelenko https://youtu.be/44IRztioCZ0
Thank you
Wow. This seems like it could potentially be a pretty big breakthrough in understanding covid-19. Hopefully the right people are getting this information.
This recent paper speculates that there could be a biphasic aspect to all this. Note that it assumes that ACE2 may be upregulated by these drugs, which may not even be the case – if that’s true, then we go from biphasic (bad before infection, good during infection) to more of a pure benefit:
At present, we cannot rule out that long‐term intake of ACEIs and/or ARBs may facilitate SARS‐CoV‐2 entry and virus replication. Conversely, it is yet unknown whether intake of ACEIs and/or ARBs, when infected, is beneficial with regard to pulmonary outcome. Possibly, we are dealing here with a double‐edged sword, depending on the phase of the disease: increased baseline ACE2 expression could potentially increase infectivity and ACEI/ARB use would be an addressable risk factor. Conversely, once infected, downregulation of ACE2 may be the hallmark of COVID‐19 progression. Consequently, upregulation by preferentially using renin‐angiotensin system blockade and ACE2 replacement in the acute respiratory syndrome phase may turn out to be beneficial.
Doctor stay safe and healthy. In my opinion, you are having to deal with a nasty human engineered virus. It has deception built into it (attacks lungs) but also many ancillary life threatening diseases (blood). There are reports it has a nerve debilitating component to it as well. Much of the fear raised in the use of HCQ regarding heart and vascular issues may, in fact, be due to the virus and not the HCQ, which has a 70 year reasonably safe use history.
Would there be a benefit to increasing endothelial production of NO by supplementing with L-arginine/L-citraline ?
These lessons are excellent. Thank you. But please be more transparent about the results of HCQ/zinc/etc. treatments rather than just saying the results are similar to another study.
Dr. Seheult really excellent work here.. really appreciate sharing your knoweldge and your findings in the people you are working with in your critical care. I have a quick did SAR-COVID-1 do the same thing ie Attacked ACE2 and cause the same issues SAR-COVID-2.. It would be so great to see the key difference how COVID-2 is different to COVID-1 specially how it attacks the body.. Also what other viruses do the same thing attack ACE2 receptor and cause Oxidative Stress??
I remember that you said in one of your update that ARDS is the reason of admitting to ICU , and not the colts.
Thank you for getting into the impact on normal ACE2 fx! Very insightful! As the JAMA data shows, there’s a lot of room for improvement on treatment after ventilation is required beyond maintaining homeostasis and checking boxes.
So far I am understanding that the Covid is causing coagulation of the Ace 2 in the cells. Can you tell me is that also in the brain cells? Could it be triggered from the brain cells. If the brain is the head of the mechanical operations of the body, could all those cells throughout the body b e triggered by the process in the brain’s through neuro transmitting messages to the rest of the body to attack ACE2 of the cell in lungs, in heart, in kidneys, etc. You say it’s heading for the respiratory first, well I wonder could it be going to the brain first? Could there be some messaging through DNA from the brain causing coagulation, attacks to ACE 2, entry into the receptors of each cell, through messaging from the brain? Then it could go on as a response through out other organs. Is there any way you can talk to someone who is a neuro specialist for the brain. Thank you….Carolyn D Hogarth
Thank You!

Could you possibly comment on the California doctors who are suggesting that social isolation is not necessary and we should all be getting back to normal activities? What do you think of their data and conclusions?
Some great videos but this might be the most important of all.
I’m wondering if fish oil added to the prophylaxis regimen. Fish oil has a similar mechanism of action to warfarin. Also, are these pts genetically predisposed to clotting?
If the issue is the downregulation of ACE-2, shouldn’t Angiotensin-II receptor blockers cause observable improvement in the clinical status of the patients with COVID-19?
I don’t know much about medical science (computer engineering) the way you brake each thing down makes it just with in grasp. Thanks
Also I worry that all the infected people who don’t know they have it will mean once we open up whenever that is we will see huge outbreaks of this.
I had Covid19 and it developed into pneumonia. I was not hospitalized, but given Cleocin. My 1st CT Scan of my lungs showed a questionable abscess. A few weeks later, my 2nd CT Scan showed as scarring instead. It’s been almost 6 weeks since my first symptom and I’m now negative of Covid19. I take Albuterol inhaler because my lungs still do not feel right. I still cough and my breathing feels abnormal. I was told pneumonia takes a long time to heal, but I’m not able to find a pulmonologist to physically see me. I want to be examined and my only option is Teledoc which is an inadequate way to examine a patient. It’s quite frustrating and I need care. I’m afraid of the scarring and what damage that may have on my lungs permanently. Is Albuterol enough or is there more I can do to help heal my lungs and prevent permanent damage? What about the patients that had Covid19 who are not admitted, developed problems, are negative now, but still need to be treated for the after affects of this virus?
Stacey Wells, if a teledoc appointment is available to you, would it be worth considering as an alternative to taking a chance on internet advice? Of course an in-office would be ideal, but a teledoc appointment would give you an opportunity to ask your questions to someone invested in your care and who could refer you.
Is it worth destroying the businesses of thousands of Americans in order to save maybe 1 out of every 1,000 people who might have died from COVID19 but much more likely died from pre existing diseases especially when the hospitals can get $37,000 for every COVID19 death claim. Is COVID19 any worse than the worldwide pandemic that happens every year known as colds, flus and pneumonia that kills over 100,000 in the U.S. every year. No one is calling for a shut down of the economy for colds, flus and pneumonia which are all contagious and caused by bacteria and viruses and so far are much worse than COVID19.
I have very thick blood. Would it be to my benefit to take aspirin to thin my blood. Would this help the oxidative stress to aid in slowing down the clots?
Tamara Savely, you’ll need to consult your personal care physician. Solutions differ for each unique person, and your life should not be a gamble based on internet advice.
Nafamostat mesylate, iv vit C would be protective?

You almost couldn’t make a more deviously fatal virus. Like several mechanisms of harm mashed together.
Wow! I’m a software engineer, I don’t have any medical background and I can understand your videos. I’m liking them so much, that I’m starting to think that maybe I should have chosen a medical career, instead of IT. Thank you so much!
I recall this comment from an earlier video.
Yeah, but depending upon what you mean by IT you could do it, data analysis etc. is at the forefront of medical research as it is in all fields of science.Look into it if your interested,-take a sideways step in your IT career.
Large dose vitamin C can help reduce oxidative stress…and vitamin D deficiency leads to overexpression of renin…further reducing ACE2.
Very very interesting. This explains deaths of young patients who were about to be released and suddenly die from stroke or myocardial infarction
newnews brooklyn link please.
My research – ACE2 block = increased Furin which facilitates viral entry. Contact me, putting it all together…. Research focus is Nrf2 and Angiotensin linkage. Nrf2 is inhibuted from acting as a transcription factor to the anti-inflammatory, anti-viral and immune regulatory genes but there are other ways of working it. The ACE2 block is like ringing a door bell, Furin is the first responder and lets the virus in, it is actually there to attenuate the Renin-Angiotensin system. Perfect storm.
How about prophylactic aspirin then ?
Would baby aspirin Help ??
As a blood thinner
If zinc interferes with the replication of viruses, and chloraquine helps zinc enter the cells, shouldn’t they be used early in the disease process? If the viral load is at the point where patients need intensive care, zinc will not help them improve, but will help prevent the viral load from increasing.
^^this!
This what the “pro-chloroquine” people have been saying all along. No one said it would work in very severe cases, so there’s no cause for surprise that it doesn’t.
In the Netherlands they are doing something and have since had less and less people enter the IC something against blood clotting i think, not sure exactly what maybe should investigate, altho i do not trust the RIVM they aren’t testing enough while saying they can they clearly cannot, i am not even sure if data can be trusted, lots of death are not reported either atleast not by rivm.
As soon as I read the reports of strokes associated with COVID 19, I was wondering about coagulopathies and DIC. Does heparin seem to be working, or will these patients actually need tPa?

In ICU already the virus has caused big lung damage and the virus would have been extensively multiplied and very high load. Even with high bacterial load sepsis antibiotic which known to kill bacteria might not work effectively to save patient.
Inspite of very advanced antibacterial drugs still in ICU mortality rate is high for sepsis because of organ damage.
Hemodynamics of organ damage of virus is not fully understood. So in ICU setting hcq effectiveness can be understood only after full Hemodynamics of infection in body is understood.
My question is, how does this relate to my hypertension medication?

I wonder is there’s any treatment drug trials going on involving ACE inhibitors, *pril…. It sounds sounds to me these are almost a silver bullet, but I’m not the expert 😛
They’re all great, but an especially great video today. In a future video, could you go into whether we should be doing DVT prophylaxis vs full dose anticoagulation? And lovenox vs heparin? I’ve seen anecdotes and Twitter threads regarding both of these questions, but I haven’t seen anything definitive.
so when media writes ‘healthy young people’ they med fat young people?
I was wondering if curcumin could not be used to prevent blood clotting as it modulates Angiotensine II.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4651552/
This article says “curcumin increased protein level of ACE2 and enhanced its expression in the intermyocardium relative to the Ang II group.”
What do you think?
Who the heck is giving thumbs down to this important virus information??? Maybe people who want to hide their head in the sand. Or deep state Gates whores.

This is an interesting lecture by a PhD professor of Pharmacology and Traditional Chinese Medicine on Covid 19 in China. You might find it useful. 👍
https://youtu.be/6YsaeeYK1Eg
This is great information, very clearly explained. It’s at a fairly high technical level for the average viewer, and even for those with advanced degrees in Biology such as myself but not specialized in human physiology. But I prefer getting the good scientific explanations rather than dumbed down BS or outright misinformation, and it does appear that our understanding of COVID-19 is growing, at the expense of many people dying. Younger people dropping dead in the streets is really going to increase the panic, unfortunately. If you ever wondered about losing weight and lowering your blood sugar and BP from diet and inactivity, now is the time. This virus is a honey badger!
I’ve been wondering about this, and I have what looks like chilblains on my toes (never had anything like this before). Is it related to the clotting? Should I be worried? I can’t get tested because other than fatigue and a postnasal drip I have no symptoms. Should I take aspirin or something?
Charlie Brown Bro there was an article on something called “Covid toes.” You may want to go to the Dr and get a blood test ASAP.
Capital I (i) needs to go back to the style with top and bottom bars – they’re to confusing without. Roman numerals need to be used properly when used, also.
Have you noticed warfarin exists naturally in cinnamon? I always start with diet. Perhaps cinnamon on apple slices (with the apple skins on) can be recommended … Ups our blood thinner + zinc ionophore (quercetin) levels a little more, and all naturally. Healthful in other ways as well. Great update, Doc, as usual. Thank you for making the most sense of further phenomena that is being reported on. Makes more sense now.
Cannot thank you enough for the time you take, out of your busy schedule, to share updates and studies with us. I’ve been a watcher for 6+ years, and this information is invaluable. 🙏👨⚕️🔬
Thank you for your support!
I guess the second part of the questioning of some of these studies is when the HCQ treatment is started. If zinc (administered early) can keep the viral load low it buys the body some time to effect an immune response. Once thrombosis reaches a certain level the side effect of HCQ raising the heart rate leads to it no longer being a benefit to the patient as it’s only accelerating these processes in the bloodstream. I guess my overall point is that once a patient reaches ICU it’s already beyond the point to administer HCQ – and so many of these studies seem to include patients in that state.
The many studies from around the world seems to point to early use of the combo HCQ/Zpak with Zinc sup is better than, as you said, ‘once the patient reaches ICU’ becoming critical. The therapy is showing success before any cytokine storm. This always seems to be the differing factor with the HCQ combo therapy, treating patient’s early vs treating critical patients.
Please consider that a significant part of the clotting disorder probably comes from the fact that the the virus itself has a hemagglutinin cell surface protein, and microthrombi involving not platelets, but actual red blood cells clumping together have been seen in blood samples. This could easily synergize with dysregulation of the Angiotensin renin system
Another much needed update thank you
So Roger, will vitamin c or zinc or vitamin D may increase levels of ACE2, yeah?
Is the blood supply tainted? Based on this lecture, it seems like someone receiving blood products that have COVID-19 contamination will get the negative affects of the virus. If that is true, then isn’t the blood supply tainted right now because the Red Cross is using 40,000+ blood products per day and can’t possibly be testing all of them for COVID-19. What is the answer here?
Wow, you really tied it all together in such a clear and understandable way. Thank you so much for being such an invaluable resource when so much information be so overwhelming.
Now how many people think this is a natural virus. Totally not made with gene insertions from SARS.
Thank you so much for your reliable and clearly explained videos. I wish everyone would realize this great information is here with no political agenda or bias just great information and truthful. People need to ignore our crazy media.
With these new observations with Von Willebrand and factor VIII do you think Haemophilliacs are now also part of this high risk group?
Thanks Team Medcram!
Did you talk about “free radicals” that anti-oxidants help fight? That’s what is sounded like. “Fights free radicals” and “full of anti-oxidants” are marketing terms for health food products 🙂
@MedCram Citrulline and Alpha-Ketoglutetate supplementation with high dose Vitamin C as a REDOX is the treatment to go. I’ve been researching this since February and came to this conclusion a while ago. It feels good to finally be justified by a MedCram video
Dear Dr. Roger Seheult
Some patients used “Nigella sativa seeds”, so I put a link to one of studies for your attention you may do further study.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4387228/
This is a VERY important video and opens up the question Millions around the world now have. Where/how do ACE-inhibitors (Blood Pressure drugs) that Millions of people take..fit into this picture? It also makes it very clear to the non-medical among us, just how dangerous this virus is to MANY parts of the body. Wherever you have ACE2 in the body, count on a path for this virus to attack.
Cardiovascular complications. Interesting.
It’s unbelievable how complicated covid-19 is. Very scary but amazing how much professionals have learned in just three or four short months.
Extremely informative as usual. But I have a question. Why is this killing otherwise young and healthy people who have few symptoms? Is it because the virus has somehow managed to get into their blood and start degrading endothelium and thus releasing the clotting factors? Why does it do this to some people and not others? What about a “young and healthy person” allows this to happen to them while other young and healthy people it doesn’t happen?
Does that explain why people who get ventilator support have a high mortality rate?? More oxidative stress??
This lecture is excellent! It’s all coming together better now.
Is the oxidative stress linked to a particular phase or phases of the infection?
Also, this oxidative stress hypothesis reinforces the importance of daily NAC.
Thank you!

Like a boxer, the virus feints with a left hook to the lungs, but releases a more potent right cross factor in the blood system, causing thrombosis and deadly oxidative clogs. And who’s at risk, the overweight, the diabetic, those with cardiovascular disease. Hint: 1/3 of America is prediabetic, and overweight significantly, ALL ages. Say hello to The Andromeda Strain by Michael Crichton, kind of. Just a friendly heads up, if are you REALLY dying to go out for dinner or a manicure?
Did SARS-COV-1 also produce thrombosis and oxidative stress?
Both SARS-COV-1 and SARS-COV-2 bind to the ACE-2 enzyme.
Kudos doctor!

A report from China provides a life saving solution. I copied the blog and link below in hope someone here will look into it.

According to the epidemic report, the number of deaths in Wuhan today (February 27) has halved for the first time, from more than 100 people a day to more than 50. The anatomy of the patient’s body has revealed that a large number of sputum plugs appeared in the lungs of the deceased. The sputum plugs were generated by the use of a ventilator. The sputum plugs eventually caused hypoxia and death. Starting yesterday, the rescue was switched to a sputum suction machine, and the death toll was halved all at once. This is to thank the donors of the remains, and the second is to thank the team of Professor Liu Liang from the Department of Forensic Medicine of Tongji.
*MedCram* – That’s a serious development. SARS-CoV2 causing blood clots whereas Ebola causes the opposite. Very scary this has gone global. I’m thankful for the global efforts towards isolation & social distancing. I just hope freedoms are properly restored once this virus has been dealt with. Thank you for your regular updates despite your busy schedule

Humm Blood Clots, Grounding/Earthing the Body direct to Ground can Eliminate blood clots, by changing the pH of the Blood, Because pH is Voltage in a Liquid, like Blood, Grounding actually causes Red Blood cells to reject and Push away from each other, it also thins the blood, and increases Blood Circulation. I would be Grounding these patients. Within one Hour of Grounding clotting would stop, and reverse. Grounding 24/7 till complete recovery would be needed. This Link shows what grounding does to Blood there are other live videos of the blood during Grounding. This I Covit 19 is attacking the Blood clotting is actually attacking the Bodies Electrical system, forcing the Blood to Clot, Grounding will neutralize this condition. https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=grounding+Blood&&view=detail&mid=8E510FC87705820C8DD58E510FC87705820C8DD5&&FORM=VRDGAR&ru=%2Fvideos%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dgrounding%2520Blood%26qs%3Dn%26form%3DQBVR%26sp%3D-1%26ghc%3D1%26pq%3Dgrounding%2520blood%26sc%3D1-15%26sk%3D%26cvid%3DB58F8DC021004B1280105F69EF0D81D2
I rehear the pleas of Cameron Kyle Sidell when he initially started treating NYC Covid19 icu pts. You explain in beautiful detail what he was imploring weeks ago in re blood disease causing lungs to fail or other way around. That the paradigm was wrong. It’s amazing to me how many brilliant minds are out there. Within a week every American seems to have found a way to make or commandeer a mask but no hand sanitizer in my local cancer and blood disorder center. Sad.
Maybe a stupid question, but is Ace2 something that can be synthesized and injected
?
Please tell your YouTube viewers if the folks that were admitted with covid19 and began going downhill under your care, were tested for Vitamin C or Vitamin D levels. If you didn’t, why not? I hope you are aware that anyone who is seriously ill will not even have measurable amounts of Vitamin C. This is established medical fact. Also, very recent tests (YouTube video, Ivor Cummins) shows those with a Vitamin D blood level below 30 are ten times more likely to get covid19. Therefore, shouldn’t you test for and treat these Vitamin deficiencies? A vitamin deficiency is no joke it can kill you.
What about using antioxidants in treatment / prevention ?
Fractioninated heparin what about losartan i heard that mentioned
Factor Leidan ? Many people don’t know they have a blood clotting disorders – could that be making Covid worse ?
Great presentation doctor we really appreciate your hard work and dedication may God bless you.
You’re some kind of superman. Treating the sickest patients out there and breaking out these high quality, informative lectures to help people not freak out over the unknown. Godspeed and be safe, doctor!
Please address whether we think that people on ACE and ARBs for BP would be detrimental, or helpful, or if we even know for sure at this point because A LOT of people are on either of these two types of high BP medications. Thank you for explaining clotting issues. Keep going. We are learning. And a million thanks to you, Dr S.

Some people have underlying blood clotting disorders that they have no idea they have – for example some women experience repeat miscarriages only to find out they have a blood clotting factor they never had any symtoms for and never knew they had until trying to conceive . I wonder if Covid is making a situation like that much worse . We are not routinely tested for blood clotting factors , so most of us would not know .
How would taking Arbs such as Olmesartan possibly affect the outcomes of clotting? Would increasing ACe2 possibly help?
Thank you for the great videos !!
Fascinating and thanks again for sharing this valuable information!
Is It a reasonable idea for young healthy people to take aspirin 81mg qd?
For your Webinar: AvYes or No question: In your estimation, Is COVID19 a lab engineered virus? The co-discoverer of HIV has said that it contains RNA components from the HIV and that this could not have occured in nature, not even in a Wet Market. The fact that COVID19 appears to kill primarily the old, infirm, the hypertensive, obese and diabetic segments of the popularltion (on a cellular level…) is noteworthy, at least to me. It also apoears that there is ongoing research into an HIV vaccine @ Wuhan Institute of Virology, and that the Gates Foundation is funding said research. Could this have been an accidental release, in other words?. Would anyone in the medical or public health community ever admit to it, if it were?.
Please do a follow up video about what we can do to mitigate oxidative stress and dilate blood vessels.
And thank you, by the way, this channel is just technical enough that I find it interesting and encouraging. There’s a lot of smart people out there that are concerned when the available information seems so basic they can process so much of it.
There are scientists out their saying they don’t understand how HCQ could work on a virus, but to me understanding that it let’s zinc into a place where zinc isn’t normally allowed to play chemist in a complex environment was enough to tell me I don’t know enough for that conversation. This is similar to the idea that the virus was destroying red blood cells and releasing free iron, which just knowing a little chemistry… having these massive reactive metal particles in the blood… obvious that is potentially caustic, but who knows precisely? It’s nice to know that folks are aware of it and can at least guess even if they also don’t know precisely.
Would a vitamin drip be called for then as an anti-oxidant?????????????
Thank you for the update doctor. With this information will you be modifying your daily suppliments?
I’m surprised that the good doctor S. didn’t comment on the advantage or disadvantage of existing ACEI/ARB therapy for hypertensive patients considering the ACE2 receptor sites in the epithelial cells. Do we want upregulation of ACE2 binding sites or not???????
Any changes in treatment?
Not a medical Professional but enjoy your presentations.

Stay inside as much as you can, protect yourself, stay safe!
brilliant video as usual. thank you
Oxidative stress would lend credence to high dose IV vitamin C therapy. Other than initial studies in China, I haven’t heard much else about it. Any update on Vitamin C trials?
Wow, this disease just keeps getting scarier. Thank you for sharing this important information.
@E. Lee how so? Please explain to us. Not trying to argue here… just learn.
No this is good news, it’s a possible line of treatment that may explain why so many people on ventilators are dying.
On Brazil doctors are using Marevan, an anti-coagulator in the first day of hospital admission, now. They made some autopsys here, and saw several of the deads had hemorragies on lungs and other body parts, so they start to use the Marevan (wich is cheap and widely used here for people with aritymy… a heart condition where you hear doesnt beat on same rythim, sorry by bad english, i dont know how to write those names in english) and some others hearth conditions (goverment gave those medicaments free for cardiac people, on the country, so its use is wide- spread).
Taiwan no cases..
Sweden?
Cases here in NYC down.

3,000,000 PEOPLE WITH Sickle cell trait and disease-low O2 even patients with just TRAIT- will have problems-sickling etc-perhaps african americans with trait should get O2 concentrators-and be instructed to immediately use them 24/7 first sign of illness in pt or house-your VIT D suggestion could help African americans-they are frequently VIT D deficient
Thanks. Surprising that China which claims/seems to be in control of Covid-19 treatment has not disclosed such oxidative stress or ACE-2 degradation in the blood. Different cultural diets with differing levels of general cardiovascular health perhaps. But could China’s (& other E Asia countries) apparently early typical intervention with Chinese Traditional Medicine (TCM) be offering some protection/immunity to ACE-2 receptors in the blood, or is there some component in their diet which offers particular anti-oxidant protection ?
It is certainly puzzling how quickly these densely packed & mobile populations in E Asia countries have apparently overcome the epidemic – when compared to W Europe & the USA. It seems there must be more than the physical measures of quarantine & distancing at work here, maybe.
What comes to mind is use of masks and sanitization.

, you’ll need to consult your personal care physician. Symptoms differ for each unique person, and your life should not be a gamble based on internet advice.
Great video! Quick question, like yourself we are seeing patients with poor outcomes, suffer from increasing d-dimer and trop I. I was wondering firstly why is there not a similar circumstance to DIC? In terms of coagulation activation of fibrinogen – fibrin? All our patients regardless of d-dimer levels have normal fibrinogen levels. And secondly what do you think the advantages of using unfractionated heparin over low molecular weight heparin vs a factor ii inhibitor? Please keep up the good work!
I just wish the news would put these headlines into context…thenews wants you to be fearful and think young people are dying left and right. It’s a very serious and scary disease, especially for the ones who have to be admitted to the hospital, but the amount of fear generated for general society doesn’t match reality. The world is not ending “if only” .66 or 1% of the population is dying after being infected. The ICU is only full of the very sickest patients and being in the eye of the storm makes it hard to see beyond. https://www.statista.com/statistics/1109867/coronavirus-death-rates-by-age-new-york-city/
Hi Dr.Seheult, could you talk about the new findings that have just been reported, of 2/3’s of patients not having a fever?
Thank you
Superb! Great insights and explanation. Any possibility of using Ang 1,7 therapeutically?
This ACE2 enzyme is on basic endothelium cells in the blood vessels and, of course the virus kills those but it also releases the van wildebran factor. In my mind just damaging the fluid barrier between the blood and endothelium seemed sufficient to cause thrombosis. All I needed to know was that the virus attacks that stuff as it moves through the body. But this means locally in the body this virus cause blood pressure control to be negatively affected by the simple act of binding to these regulatory enzymes.
Skilled people were saying at they weren’t sure it was in the blood, but I was wondering why it wouldn’t be. And then as we learn about pneumonia it’s obvious the virus would definitely be in the blood, and then it’s obviously causing malingering disease in all or most of the ACE2 related systems. Not sure about the actual brain because I know there’s another protection layer there.
I was getting worried haven’t seen any updates .
dam that like to dislike ratio tho
This analysis is incredible. It’s as if you are treating multiple diseases simultaneously. You have gotten so much closer to pinning down the discrepancy in infected patients. I’m in awe of this data and your ability to process it in real time.
Almost sounds like this thing was designed.
Lol
Brilliant….as usual!!!
We should pay more attention to a group of people that have antibodies of Covid-19 and is asymptomatic to see what different between people.
Another thing that would be interesting to know is how many of these patients were taking a supplement of vitamin K1 or K2, or a multivitamin with K in it. vit K has become all the rage lately and K2 stays in the blood for a good amount of time.
BEST information source on the net.
No BS no assumptions just facts and solid studies.

@Y. Tzvi Langermann yeah sounds about right.
Yes, who ever said that it is a wonder drug that will cure severe cases? We’re having a conversation of the deaf as far as HCQ is concerned.

Survive the virus but permanent damage. We should permanently damage CCP as well.
Dr. Seheult: Early on, the recommendation to NOT use NSAIDs was made (including aspirin) because of the benefit of a healthy fever in combating SARS-COV2. With current information, what is the recommendation regarding a daily aspirin dose for the at risk group(s), an 81mg “baby” aspirin? Some have discontinued based on the earlier (incomplete) information known. Thank you for your excellent, and continually, updated information!
I’m not a doctor, but here is my opinion. Considering the importance of boosting your innate immune system with hot/cold hydrotherapy, which Dr. Seheult recommends as a prophylactic measure, a daily dose of aspirin may reduce the benefits of that therapy. The sooner our immune system can attack and destroy the virus, the less we will have to worry about it causing the problems mentioned in this video. Daily doses of Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, Quercetin, Zinc, NAC, and Elderberry Extract in combination with hot/cold hydrotherapy will very likely be more beneficial than taking aspirin.
I think the advice for NSAIDs is to avoid their use in the treatment of COVID (eg, sinus inflammation can cause major headache, ibuprofen is very effective for this pain, but has risk of slowing the immune response) but I don’t think this advice extends to stopping any existing uses, there is too much variability, and depends on why it was originally recommended, the risks of stopping it etc. Treatments of a present condition should not simply be stopped due to potential risks in a not-present condition without evaluating your individual risks. However, regarding daily use of aspirin for protection against heart attacks and strokes caused by clots (strokes caused by bleeds would be made worse) newer data collected has resulted in this advice needing to be changed, and is now only recommended following an event like a heart attack etc. The reduction of risks associated with clotting can be easily cancelled out by the greater risks associated with bleeds, esp in people over 70 where daily aspirin appears more clearly harmful. If you’re following a physician’s recommendation, speak to this physician to evaluate new risk data. If you’ve not had any prior cardiovascular event, and only take aspirin based on the older, general advice, ie, you made the decision yourself, check newer information from the prior year, you probably don’t want to be continuing it anyway… this is totally independent from hypothetical risks from a hypothetical SARS II infection, as the only real advice there is to not catch the virus! At least, delay it as long as possible, as the gained knowledge and experience is what will help the most.
[I am just an internet person, do not trust anything I say to be right for you!]
I just read an article this morning about Pepcid patients faring better with this disease than those on Prilosec. It is thought that famotidine binds to the protease and stops them from replicating. Can you talk about this as a possible treatment or prophylactic?

How many of your patients were Vitamin D deficient?
@Steven Miller this might be the biggest factor. i’ve watched several dcotros and they have been saying , zinc, vitamin d and high dose of vitamic C are the key
All. Almost everyone is Vitamin D deficient
You seriously need to be Surgeon General among other critical positions of influence in manners health and medical science. 💛💛💛
Medcram! Please review this finding.

What if we could lower the covid ICU and hospital cases by 90% just by giving everyone a 5000 IU vitamin D pill…
Remember those guys dropping dead in china back in the early stage of the pandemic? Told you plebs that pneumonia won’t kill ppl that way.
Yes your right, I can’t help but wonder if EMF depletes salts and essential minerals available? Also if the positive negative effects of iron polarity damages the cell membrane and body’s inability to attach & remove these damaged cells?
I think I have recovered from the virus but I still feel some little chest pain sometimes especially when I do a little work or make a sharp movement. Can someone tell me how long it takes for this to go away?
First, if you only think you have recovered, you probably weren’t infected with the big one at all.
Maybe 0.5% of the world population is or was infected yet. If you don’t live in a hotspot, it’s very, very unlikely.
Second: Go, see a doctor regarding your chest pain.

A researcher friend at a big pharma suspected Factor V Leiden thrombophilia which is impacting a percentage of people of european ancestry. Blood clogging wasn’t widely observed in Asia.
Are you adding any supplements to your daily regimen as a result of viewing the disease in this new light? It seems like you’re on the cutting edge of learning about covid-19, so thanks for the video updates.

Scary stuff. It’s one thing to have symptoms that progress but to go from little to no symptoms to dead does little to calm my hypochondria. Still, this is good to know.
Mind addressing the Mild cases that appear to only be GI related?
Very interesting, maybe a medication to regulate AT-II would help although I’m not in the medical field and don’t know if there’s such a medication, hopefully there is
I am on 32 day of my covid symptoms very day it’s getting worst. I have started taking anticoagulant medicine but need really help how much and what mg should I continue. Also I have stop taking my ARBs medicine of hypertension because of conflicting opinion. Shall I continue with it will it benefit me or deteriorate the think more. Please medcram help
Sandeep Sharma, you would be wise to consult your personal care physician. Solutions differ for each unique person, and your life should not be a gamble based on internet advice.
Sandeep Sharma follow dr. david brownsteins protocol with vitamins and nebulizing
This explains so much regarding unexplained MIs.
Happy hypoxics that’s the best thing I’ve heard all day
Extremely interesting about ace2 enzymes
Antiviral experiment & Treatment could be the reason for cardio/ Stroke related problems (side effects such as QT:-Hydroxycholoroquine) !
I am beyond grateful to you for making these videos. Knowledge is wonderful. Thank you.
Doc, I have a doubt. If the Hydroxicloroquine+zinc is being used as an antiviral, wouldn’t its effect show best when used at the initial stages of the viral infection rather than later on at Intensive care? Or would it be expected to work the same at different stages of the disease?
@MedCram – Medical Lectures Explained CLEARLY hey doc, are you guys using this treatment at an earlier stage? If so, what are the results?
I’m afraid you’re right. The earlier the better
This virus is getting better and better. What other cells have ACE2 receptors ?
Somewhat irrelevant, at this point, but doesn’t this virus have so many hallmarks of an engineered bio-weapon? Either way China’s CCP needs to be put on trial for crimes against humanity.
Can you speak about HBO possibly or not?
Strokes just started appearing in the news in the last week. I’ve been listening to ems and fire in Denver for the last month or so. Lots of strokes. Didn’t know if that was just the norm, because until recently I’ve never spent time listening to ems radio. Dr. Seheult your are THE MAN!!!
Is there a network nation wide and world wide that all this information you are sharing and educating us all with is sent and shared with all ICU and virologists so the best practices can reach the patients. I would hate to think other providers have to look things up as you are Doctor.

What supplements to take to prevent or minimize oxidative stress? Vitamin C? Vitamin E? Magnesium? Essiac (tea or capsule)?
Hello MedCram,
Has anyone in the hospital you work at died from rapid onset acute brain disease caused from Covid-19?
Great explanation – thank you for your expertise in this and explaining to us in an understandable way 😀
Is this why ibuprofen was being avoided in the beginning
I’m not my a med. prof., but listen to Drs. Mike Hansen and Yo’s 4/26/2020 Q&A ~59:39 – this is discussed.
@Medcram have you looked at a report by dr Richard on his practice of intravenous vitamin C to reverse oxidation and inflammation on covid19 patient. Strangely his video kept taken down by youtube.
@KW 2 yt is removing every video that is not in compliance with WHO. Vitamin c is not recommended by WHO.

Couldn’t find the video again. But here’s a recording of doctor discussion https://youtu.be/dK17dY8iDVE
……….Penicillin G
Remdesivir ? Pls explain why this is not in use? It’s been proven in the zero patient in Seattle’s case!
Thank you n all the frontline for your courage! ! Stay safe! Been watching you since day one.
You guys are our heroes! Salute 👏👏👏👍❤️
The effectiveness of a medication is not proven by giving it to one patient. So the fact that one patient took it and got better does not mean anything. This proper way to do it is to give it to a lot of patients, and also give to the same number of similar patients a placebo drug and then compare the two groups. If the group that has taken the real drug copes with the disease better then the group with the placebo then you have an indication (or proof if you prefer) that the drug works.
Answer this for me doctor why are you ventilating people when you don’t have to what’s the true protocol are you being asked to put covid-19 for people who die of cardiovascular only without testing on the death certificate
What’s your thought on Saikosaponins, there’s some research showing good in vitro results with SARS.

Thank you. I find this all encouraging because I know that our doctors are figuring out this virus and how it goes about doing harm.
has any one thought of using soft hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy, eric rosenkrantz md cardiology. also may L arginine supplement be indicated as a nitric oxide precursor ?
Glad to have you bafk! Could you please start showing the table of the numbers for all countries? I live in Germany so seeing the numbers for everyone was much more helpful than just the english speaking ones. Thank you for all your work 👍
@E. Lee oh nevermind, was looking at the wrong link ,👍
@E. Lee yes but there was a graph he would show that also showed active cases, recovered and deaths which I canr seem to find over the john hopkins site. I know for a fact out country is doing very well when it comes to the virus itself but ud still like to know how many active cases we have.
He has a link to the worldometer which he is using, just click the Show more button in the description at the top of the page. Even more informative than total cases & total deaths, is total % of pop as everything shifts. What matters is the death % per million of your population as that shows how well your medical system is working. Countries with big pop like USA look worse than countries with small pop unless you look at deaths % per million.
I know you had talked in an earlier lecture about HBP medications. I was hoping you would comment on those with these updated findings. I currently take Lisinopril and was wondering with these new findings if taking Lisinopril is a benefit against Covid-19 or could possibly make it worse.
I believe it’ll possibly make it less severe. If using an ACE Inhibitor shouldnt that in theory slow the production of AT-II which is causing Oxidative stress?
I’m also interested as I also take Lisinopril. If the ACE2 involved makes things worse I’d stop taking it as I’ve lost a lot of the weight that caused the high blood pressure in the first place.
Dr. John Campbells update has breakdown.
So is this why we saw people in China dropping over like flies and doing the Wuhan Wiggle and why IV Vitamin C therapy seems to help?
I was told that taking S.O.D. would help my health… Is that untrue?
Pure genius!
Hi Dr. Seheult, there is a recent paper from Brazil indicating that early treatment of patients with symptoms of COVID-19 with hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin resulted in substantially less hospitalizations. I wonder if they had included zinc in their treatment regimen, whether the hospitilizations would have even been less:

Need to look into grounding / earthing for improving blood viscosity for Covid patients. May at least in part help with clotting issues. There is evidence (see link below) that grounding helps viscosity through normalizing zeta potential of the RBC’s and thus the RBC’s are less sticky. It has to do with the electrodynamics of human blood. Many think grounding is pseudoscience but there is a growing body of research that shows when humans hold charge there are ill effects. And humans definitely hold charge, just ask anyone who works on sensitive electronic equipment….they have to be grounded the whole time. Ancient man was grounded nearly all the time whereas modern humans are not, hence the issues.

Not necessarily related for anything Covid but for those who think that grounding is pseudoscience, here is link which shows grounding also being looked into for other things with promising results. Improved vagal tone in premature infants compared to non grounded. Done through Penn State

When CRT screens were common grounding was a big issue. What happens is that if you are charged, the you will attract sma
