Dr. Dena Grayson, a medical doctor, scientist, and expert on deadly pandemic diseases, says we are currently in the “first wave” of coronavirus infections.
This is the first wave of infections to come
Dr. Grayson predicts that
as summer approaches in the Northern Hemisphere, the Southern Hemisphere will become the new “hot zone” for COVID-19 as it becomes their winter season. “Come next flu season when it starts in that kind of October time-frame, we expect that this virus will kind of boomerang back here to the north, causing a second, even worse wave of infections.”
Pandemic Expert Predicts Second, ‘Even Worse’ Wave Of Coronavirus Infections Next Winter.
The death count body count wise next flu season
Next winter flu season, in an absolute worst case scenario,
this could be as high as 3-4 million people. Dr. Grayson says she has been calling for a nation-wide lockdown for the past several weeks, because without any proven treatments, “The only defense we have against this virus right now is to shelter.”
Dr. Dena Grayson, a medical doctor, scientist, and expert on deadly pandemic diseases, says
people born without spleens, or those who have had their spleens removed, are not at increased risk of becoming infected with COVID-19, but may be more susceptible to certain secondary encapsulated bacterial infections should they contract the disease.
Convalescent Plasma - Inoculate others
"You can purify, collect the liquid part of the blood which is called plasma. We call this convalescent plasma, collected from people who have overcome the infection. It is rich in antibodies that can fight this deadly virus. It is an old school approach actually was used during the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic, and looked like it was potentially effective against SARS, which is another virus closely related to this deadly coronavirus.
Right now in NY, they are currently doing this. They just published some data on the first couple of patients that were critically ill. Iit does look very, very early, but looks extremely promising. I want to caution, it is still early days. It could be a bridge while waiting for the vaccine. The vaccine is going to take a while, that is going to be 12-18 months, if we are lucky."
