Coronavirus Pandemic Update 59: Dr. Seheult’s Daily Regimen (Vitamin D, C, Zinc, Quercetin, NAC)
We recorded this video in response to your comments asking what Dr. Seheult’s daily regimen is - to optimize his immune system and minimize COVID-19 risk. In the absence of good clinical data that is specific to SARS-CoV-2, Dr. Seheult discusses supplements, sleep, and his daily disinfection routine when removing PPE, getting in his car, and returning home from the hospital. We look forward to more randomized, blinded, placebo-control studies in the future that will build upon the current body of evidence as it relates to immunity and specifically coronaviruses such as SARS-CoV-2.

Coronavirus Pandemic Update 58: Testing; Causes of Hypoxemia in COVID-19 (V/Q vs Shunt vs Diffusion)
Two recent antibody testing studies in the United States may give insight into how widespread COVID-19 actually is - which may also mean the fatality rate is lower than initially thought - but there may be problems with the accuracy of using this data in a prediction model. Dr. Seheult also illustrates the key differences between different types of hypoxemia (low blood oxygen): V/Q mismatch, shunting, and diffusion abnormalities. COVID-19 infection may involve all three of these to varying degrees and MIGET (multiple inert gas elimination technique) studies may unlock some of the mystery.
