Test accurately identifies those at risk for severe COVID-19, researchers say – UPI.com

The test can be administered during COVID-19 screening to help guide treatment before the most severe symptoms appear, the researchers said. “We found an antibody that can be detected for predictive diagnosis really early in the disease, within one to six days after the first COVID symptoms [appear],” study co-author Gregory Weiss told UPI in an email. RELATED Urine test may detect people at risk for severe COVID-19, study finds “Such information could help direct therapeutic interventions toward patients who need the most help early on in the course of the disease, when it’s the most treatable,” said Weiss, a chemical biologist at the University of California, Irvine. The technology used in the test, specifically to identify antibodies, is “readily available in labs,” according to Weiss. Antibodies are cells produced by the immune system to fight off viruses, but not all of them are effective at doing so, he said.

Guns and Roses

Triangle Writes...

by : Bacardi Gold
28/april/2021

This is a reblogged poem from my other site. It carries some little changes.

if these roses can whisper

to people of different ears

if conflicts can listen for awhile

our lives can carry tears and cheers

.

thorns could prick our skin

protruding from the stalks

but flowers are all akin

various flags along the garden blocks

.

beautiful buds now abloom

speaking softly to the stars

thoughts were read by the restless moon

concerned about the ongoing wars

.

if all the guns would turn to lovely flowers

no bubble of hatred would burst as it poses

no braves would win, no cowards would cower

when bombs and arrows become bouquet of roses…
