We showed that melatonin produced in the lung acts as a barrier against SARS-CoV-2, preventing the virus from entering the epithelium, activating the immune system and triggering the production of antibodies"
Regina Pekelmann Markus, Professor, Institute of Biosciences and Principal Investigator, University of São Paulo
"Because lung melatonin inhibits transcription of these genes that encode proteins for viral entry point cells, application of melatonin directly into the lungs in the form of drops or spray could block the virus. More research is required to prove that this is indeed the case, however, the researchers note.
Another idea could be to use MEL-Index, the pulmonary melatonin metric, as a prognostic biomarker to detect asymptomatic carriers of SARS-CoV-2."

Melatonin synthesized in the lungs acts as a barrier against SARS-CoV-2
Melatonin synthesized in the lungs acts as a barrier against SARS-CoV-2, preventing expression of genes that encode proteins in cells such as resident macrophages in the nose and pulmonary alveoli, and epithelial cells lining the alveoli, all of which are…
A SARSCoV2 contagion, transmission, or outbreak is nothing to worry about provided all the infected recover. >99+% will recover. <1% need early treatment to also recover. No early treatment & <0.5% may get to an ICU where they may die. If high fentanyl sedation is given they die. The difference between the >99% and the <1% is age & prior immunity, which are related. The higher the age the more supplements required to boost immunity (vit D, zinc). This is the real issue. Transmission is NOT the issue. We are counting the wrong thing. Who told us to? A reminder that Covid19 can cure Hogkins lymphoma, as it seems to have done so in one patient. Why do we think temporary disease is only negative? Who decided diseases need to be avoided through vaccinations rather than treated to natural immunity? Why did they do that? Were they right?
Patient-Reported Health Outcomes After Treatment of COVID-19 with Nebulized and/or Intravenous Neutral Electrolyzed Saline Combined with Usual Medical Care Versus Usual Medical care alone: A Randomized, Open-Label, Controlled Trial
34 researchers involved in the study in Mexico found:
"The experimental treatment decreased the risk of hospitalisation by 92%, with a 43-fold increase in the probability of achieving an acceptable symptom state on day 5..."
Conclusion: "The experimental treatment produced no serious side effects. In conclusion, intravenous and/or nebulized electrolyzed saline importantly reduced the symptomology and risk of progression (hospitalisation and death), in ambulatory patients with COVID-19."

SMASHING NEW PODCAST! 🎙📡🦠🇮🇹
One of my favorite so far this year, especially the 2nd half!
"Italian film producer, architect, lecturer and man of many hats Robin Monotti discusses the totalitarian and fascist nature of the COVID19 and Great Reset biopolitics and biosecurity regime, as some such as Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben have identified it. Monotti refers to Umberto Eco's "Ur-Fascism" (Eternal Fascism) on the how fascism or totalitarianism is not a thing of the past, but an evil that is present in every generation and which must be identified, recognized, and fought back against. COVID19's Great Reset is precisely our generation's totalitarian threat." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRLXNa3bqQk

"Umberto Eco had a different notion, he wrote Eternal Fascism. Every generation has its own battle against fascism. He was in one generation that had their own.
We're in another one. What people do not want to accept is this. They do not want to accept it happens again and again. We who do not want it to happen, we need to fight it again and again.
The problem is people will say "you are an alarmist because you are talking about Mussolini and Hitler and camps, this is something we've left behind."
Eco's view, which I think is what is happening now, is there comes a moment in your generation's lifetime in which it's your turn to fight it. Because it is happening again.
People who lived during Italian fascism said "we didn't know it was Italian fascism, it was just the way things were, the government was like that."
People who now choose to go along, they’ll say the same. Even if there was a Greater Reset, we just stayed at home..." Robin Monotti
