Good Lifestyle

Everything in masking, social distancing andto get vaccinated As soon as possible, all good ways to reduce your chances of capturing Covid, new research suggest that there is a certain genetic factor that may mitigate your risk of developing more serious COVID symptoms. According to a new study conducted by researchers at the Okinawa Institute of the University of Graduate Studies of Science and Technology, a particular DNA markerCan keep a security person a severe COVID case that deserves hospitalization. Read it to find out what researchers have found and how this could affect you. And if you want to protect yourself, know thatIf you superimpose these masks, the CDC says to stop immediately.

In the new study, which will be published in the March 2021 volume ofPnapThe researchers have discovered that a particular group of Neanderthal genes - specifically those affecting Chromosome 12 - which still exist in people today can help reduce the risk of having a case ofCOVID that requires intensive care Treatment of 22%.

"Despite the Neanderthals disappearing 40,000 years ago, theirThe immune system we always influence in a positive and negative way today, "geneticist and co-study authorSVANT Pääbo, PhD, explained in a statement.

The authors of the study found that the particular genetic variant transmitted from the Neanderthal DNA was capable ofReduce the gravity of COVID through a specific mechanism. This particular genetic factor - which has been identified in three Nearetterals that execute the range of 50,000 years at 120,000 years, show the production of virus control enzymes in the human body. "It seems that neanderthal variant enzymes are more effective, which reduces the risks of serious consequences to SARS-VV-2 infections," said Pääbo. And if you want to stay safe when you are out of the house, beware thatThe CDC has just published a warning about this type of facial mask.

The researchers of the study found that the genetic variant is generalized in a large part of the world. "It is present in the populations in Eurasia and the Americas during carrier frequencies that often reach and exceed 50%," according to thePnapto study.

In Japan, about 30% of individuals support the genetic trait, while the study researchers found it "almost completely absent" in sub-Saharan Africa. And for more what could prevent you from protecting you from Graves Covid, checkThis common medicine could reduce your risk of Covid's death..

While the variant of Nameandrhal DNA identified can offer some protection to those who have it, it will not necessarily cancel the othersFactors of risk of developing severe covidation. "Of course, other factors such as advanced age or underlying conditions such as diabetes have a significant impact on how an infected disease can become an infected disease," said Pääbo. "But genetic factors also play an important role and some of them have been contributed to the current people of Neanderthals."
