Medcram COVID-19 Cram - A Video Guide to COVID-19 and How It Appears to Work at the Biomolecular Level

Below is a sequence of videos that explains how the COVID-19 virus appears to work, and how vitamin, mineral, and antioxidant supplements might aid in reducing oxidative stress and inhibit the effects of the virus.

Please watch the approximately 10 minute videos in the order listed below, as each one builds upon the concepts presented in previous videos. Note that time markers are included in the links to start at the relevant points in the videos.

Summary Index of Videos:

• 1-14 - Focus on the molecular biology of DNA, RNA, the COVID-19 virus, the lungs, and the body's immune system.
• 15-20 - Focus on oxidative stress as the main result of COVID-19 infection, caused by what the virus is doing to the cells in the lungs and blood vessels.

Since the timing of these videos is early to mid 2020, later videos in the author's series contain references to later studies that confirm the author's hypothesis of what's going on.

Video 1: Coronavirus Epidemic Update 16: Strengthening Your Immune Response to Viral Infections

A short introduction to the basics of immune response to viruses.

Video 2: How Viruses Work - Molecular Biology Simplified (DNA, RNA, Protein Synthesis)

A short introduction to the basics of molecular biology.

Video 3: Coronavirus Epidemic Update 32: Important Data from South Korea, Can Zinc Help Prevent COVID-19?

Continuation of the basics of molecular biology, the life-cycle of the COVID-19 virus, and the role of Zinc in cells.

Video 4: Coronavirus Epidemic Update 34: US Cases Surge, Chloroquine & Zinc Treatment Combo, Italy Lockdown

The role of Zinc ionophores (specifically Chloroquine) is explored further.

Video 5: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 35: New Outbreaks & Travel Restrictions, Possible COVID-19 Treatments

More on Hydroxychloroquine, and the role of Quercetin is explored as a Zinc ionophore.

Video 6: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 37: The ACE-2 Receptor - The Doorway to COVID-19 (ACE Inhibitors & ARBs)

The ACE2 receptor for COVID-19 entry into cells is discussed.

Video 7: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 42: Immunity to COVID-19 and is Reinfection Possible?

Immunity is revisited. PCR and antibody testing is discussed.

Video 8: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 43: Shortages, Immunity, & Can a TB Vaccine (BCG) Help Prevent COVID-19?

Immunity is revisited. Innate versus Specific is discussed.

Video 9: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 52: Ivermectin Treatment; Does COVID-19 Attack Hemoglobin?

Ivermectin is discussed. The biomolecular aspects of how Hemoglobin works to carry oxygen is discussed.

Video 10: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 53: Anticoagulation; Can Mechanical Ventilation Make COVID 19 Worse?

The lungs and ACE2 receptors revisited. Blood clotting is discussed.

Video 11: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 54: COVID-19 Antibody vs. PCR Testing; When to Relax Social Distancing?

Video 12: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 55: How COVID-19 Infection Attacks The Immune System & Differs From HIV

Differences in immune response between COVID-19 and AIDS is compared.

Video 13: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 61: Blood Clots & Strokes in COVID-19; ACE-2 Receptor; Oxidative Stress

Strokes in young patients is discussed, and the role that ACE2 receptors may be playing. Oxidative Stress is introduced.

Video 14: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 62: Treatment with Famotidine (Pepcid)?

Preview of focus change to oxidative stress from COVID-19 infection. Prior videos were from the point of view of COVID-19 as a lung disease, now believed to be a means to an end. Prior concepts are still foundational for the next discussions.

Video 15: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 63: Is COVID-19 a Disease of the Endothelium (Blood Vessels and Clots)?

Molecular biology revisited in terms of energy generation in the body. Oxidative Stress is explained in great detail. Glutathione antioxidant is introduced.

Video 16: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 65: COVID-19 and Oxidative Stress (Prevention & Risk Factors)

Molecular biology of superoxides as a result of COVID-19 infection of ACE2 receptors is reviewed.

Video 17: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 66: ACE-Inhibitors and ARBs - Hypertension Medications with COVID-19

Role of ACE inhibitors in blocking COVID-19 infections is discussed (no effect).

Video 18: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 67: COVID-19 Blood Clots - Race, Blood Types, & Von Willebrand Factor

The molecular biology of thrombosis (blood clots in blood vessels) from ACE2 reduction is discussed.

Video 19: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 69: "NAC" Supplementation and COVID-19 (N-Acetylcysteine)

NAC and Glutathione is discussed as a means to reduce oxidative stress.

Video 20: Coronavirus Pandemic Update 70: Glutathione Deficiency, Oxidative Stress, and COVID 19

I just saw this. Thanks.

A lot of crap out there.

I watched the first one. Not crap.

My wife and I made a point of watching his COVID videos through the first eight months of the pandemic.

They are well worth passing on. Thanks!
