Good Lifestyle

Since the last year, we were all focused on one thing:avoid Covid. Although we know the basic health measures that can prevent us to protect the hands of the virus, the maintenance of social distance and wearing a mask of research has shown that certain genetic factors or lifestyle can offer you added protection, asyour blood, for example. As the pandemic has gone, many experts sutupé which could probably protect people from the virus, which can have few symptoms or no symptoms, while others died. Unfortunately, a new study just down a major theory which was good news for most of us. It turns out, a common coldnot protect yourself down with Covid. Read ahead to find out more, and in another way, you do not stay safeIf you wear your mask like this, you do not receive "maximum protection".

A new study published Feb. 9 in the journalCell found that having had a case ofthe common cold will not stop someone get Covid. Researchers at Pennsylvania University analyzed blood samples of 251 people taken before the pandemic which was then infected with Covid and compared 251 samples from those who were not infected Covid. According to the study, while many of these patients had antibodies from previous infections cold, they had no impact on whether someone ended up getting Covid. And for more on what makes the virus affects people differently,If you had this common disease, you are more likely to die from COVID.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the common cold is the result of acommon human coronaviruses. And while this is different coronavirus SARS-COV-2, which causes Covid-19, their connection has led some experts to theorize thatprevious cold could eventually produce antibodies This would protect the people of the new coronavirus.

"Going into this study, we thought we would learn that the existing pre-selected, pre-pandemicAntibodies against SARS-COV-2 would be less susceptible to infection and have a 19-Covid less severe disease, "study authorScott Hensley, PhD, an immunologist at the University of Pennsylvania, saidThe New York Times. "It's not what we found." And for more signs that you could catch the new coronavirus, know thatIf you have more than 65 years, you can miss this symptom of Covid..

Antibodies produced from common colds have hardly any effect on the protection against infection Covid. However, experts said the memory of immune cells (which create antibodies) produced by previous cold infections can recognize parts of SARS-COV-2 and attack,decrease severe symptoms of the virus.Shane Crotty, PhD, virgulaire of the Institute of Immunology in La Jolla in San Diego, California, said,The temperature these cells can be triggered "fast enough that you would have asymptomatic infection that you have never noticed. But no, they would not stop the infection."

The author of Hensley study also clarified this in a statement on the study, said: "Although the antibodies from previous infections coronavirus can not prevent SARS-COV-2 infections, it is possible that pre-existing B cells memory B andT cells could potentially provide a level of protection or at least reduce the severity of Covid-19 of the disease. The studies must be completed to test this hypothesis. "And for more news Covid updates delivered directly to your inboxSign up for our daily newsletter.

A previous study in December in the journalScience was one ofKey pieces of research behind the theory of Cold-Covid, according toThe temperature. This study indicated that only about 5% of adults wore commonly cold coronavirus antibodies, compared with 43% of children, that researchers saw as a possible explanation on whyChildren are apparently less affected by COVID-19.

However, the new study published inCell did not find a similar model. According to Hensley, he and the other researchers felt that one in five people wearing previous antibodies that recognize the new coronavirus, without difference in amounts in children compared to adults. TheScienceThe study "reported very high levels of pre-pandemic cross-country neutralizing antibodies in children, which we did not find," Hensley clarified. And for more serious cases of the virus, If you did that, you are twice as likely to develop severe covidation .
