What seemed to be a situation that we thought had already been solved and controlled, turned out to be the opposite. The cases have risen again and with it a certain dose of concern in this regard. Now, on this side there is good news because liver medicine identified to help prevent COVID-19.
We explain the variant of covid BA.5, the most infectious of all.
We are closing 2022 and a pandemic that began 3 years ago (it is worth remembering that the first cases occurred in Wuhan, China) continues to cause problems in society as in other sectors of the world. Mexico is not the only country that has to be concerned about this issue, since several others are following this problem with due caution. That being said, despite the bad news that more people are infected we can also celebrate a discovery that could be very valuable.
What is the liver medicine that helps prevent COVID-19?
ursodeoxycholic acidused to treat or prevent various biliary ailments, regulates the ACE2 receptor, which facilitates the entry of the COVID-19 virus into cells and may reduce infection, according to tests on animal and human organoids and tissues.
From this situation, the novelty happens because the viral receptors could “complement vaccination” and be suitable for treating covid in certain vulnerable groups.
Since the substance regulates human cells, rather than targeting the virus, its administration may help protect the body from variants that may emerge in the future. In short, it is fair that you take note of some aspects to combat this rise in cases, such as completing the vaccination schedules established by the health authorities. That this situation will not be a problem again depends on us.
