President Biden’s COVID-19 symptoms are nearly resolved, his doctor said Monday. The president took his 10th dose of Paxlovid on Monday morning and his doctor, Kevin O’Connor, said in a letter that “his symptoms have almost resolved completely.” O’Connor also said Biden’s pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and temperature are normal, his oxygen saturation is “excellent” and his lungs remain clear. Biden tested positive for COVID-19 while campaigning in Las Vegas on Wednesday. He has been isolating at his Rehoboth, Del., home since. O’Connor on Monday reiterated that Biden “continues to perform all of his presidential duties” while he is...

My husband and I need some medical advice.We live in Sentani, Papua, Indonesia. One of the things we do is provide a home for two pre-teens from an even more remote location.The boys just returned to us from spending Christmas with their family a few hours ago. We have just learned that the youngest, age 11, stepped on a nail a week ago. His family took him to a doctor and was treated. When the boy told us about it tonight at supper and mentioned he may need to have additional care here, he said that the doctor did NOT...

(NEXSTAR) — With respiratory illness spiking across the country, there’s a good chance you’re sick to start the new year. Maybe you have the symptoms of COVID-19, prompting you to take a test or two that you received for free from the federal government in 2023. It’s also possible you’re testing negative. While there is a relatively obvious reason why your test is negative (more on that in a moment), there is another less obvious possibility you may be overlooking.

Doctors say they're finding it increasingly difficult to distinguish Covid from allergies or the common cold, even as hospitalizations tick up. The illness' past hallmarks, such as a dry cough or the loss of sense of taste or smell, have become less common. Instead, doctors are observing milder disease, mostly concentrated in the upper respiratory tract.

"Desperate" isn't a word used often in the sterile language of elite medical journals. Yet that word alarmingly appears twice in a recent editorial from the Lancet publications about the lack of long COVID treatments. Long COVID is the name given to the constellation of medical conditions that can potentially last for weeks, months or years after infection with the coronavirus that triggered the 2020 pandemic. These include fatigue (especially after exercise), shortness of breath, heart palpitations, difficulty thinking (sometimes referred to as "brain fog"), fever, headaches and joint pain. With millions of people already infected, and roughly 1 in...

A key ingredient in many over-the-counter cold and allergy medications called phenylephrine doesn’t work to get rid of nasal congestion, a Food and Drug Administration advisory panel concluded Tuesday. The unanimous vote, which specifically declared oral formulations of phenylephrine ineffective, is expected to disrupt the market for OTC cold and allergy remedies, where consumers largely prefer pills over nasal sprays. Phenylephrine — found in drugs including Sudafed PE, Vicks Sinex and Benadryl Allergy Plus Congestion — is the most popular oral decongestant in the United States, generating almost $1.8 billion in sales last year, according to data presented Monday by...

Scientists are reporting a breakthrough discovery: A $3-per-pill epilepsy drug may be used to “switch off” autism symptoms in mice, according to a new peer-reviewed study published Tuesday in Molecular Psychiatry journal. Autism spectrum disorder is a complex developmental condition that impacts how an estimated 5.4 million (2.2% of) adults — and one in 44 children — in the United States perceives and socializes with others. It is often accompanied by abnormalities such as epilepsy or hyperactivity, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data. A team of experts at Germany’s Hector Institute for Translational Brain Research found that...

Participants who were fully vaccinated, partially vaccinated and unvaccinated reported four of the same main symptoms: A sore throat, runny nose, persistent cough and a headache. Many of the symptoms of any viral infection can be similar, making it tough to tell the difference between Covid-19, influenza or a common cold without getting tested. One of the big differences is shortness of breath and the loss of smell and taste for Covid, which are not likely experiences for the flu or colds. Common cold symptoms include a mild cough, a stuffy nose, sneezing, a sore throat, aches, and a short...

A couple of hundred years ago, Paul Revere took a famous ride, informing his fellow countrymen that the British were coming. I find it ironic that his cries of warning about an impending attack from a foreign entity so closely mimic what our very own government is doing to day to promote one.This week, the federal government declared a state of emergency over the monkeypox. For those of you wondering about whether you should be alarmed, here is what the CDC says about monkeypox:Monkeypox is a rare disease caused by infection with the monkeypox virus. Monkeypox virus is part of...

The U.S. has reported 72 cases of monkeypox across 18 states in the last month, making it the country's largest monkeypox outbreak ever. . . . Traditionally, people with monkeypox have developed a fever, swollen lymph nodes, headaches and muscle aches, followed by a rash that starts on their face or in their mouth then spreads to other parts of their body — particularly the hands and feet. But in many recent U.S. cases, patients first experienced a rash in the mouth or around the genitals or anus. . . What's more, some U.S. patients have reported pain in or...

The South African doctor who first discovered the Omicron variant says she was pressured by European governments to not reveal that it was mild.Angelique Coetzee let slip the bombshell revelation during an interview with Germany’s Welt.“I was told not to state publicly that it was a mild illness. I have been asked to refrain from making such statements and to say that it is a serious illness. I declined,” she said.Coetzee explained how under the World Health Organization’s own definition, the strain perfectly fitted the bill for a mild variant.“The definition of mild Covid-19 disease is clear, and it is...

A top World Health Organization (WHO) official said on Tuesday that evidence is growing that shows the Omicron variant of the CCP virus is less severe compared to previous variants due to the disease affecting the upper respiratory tract.“We are seeing more and more studies pointing out that Omicron is infecting the upper part of the body. Unlike other ones, the lungs, who would be causing severe pneumonia,” WHO Incident Manager Abdi Mahamud said during a news conference in Geneva.Mahamud’s remark on the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus variant having a reduced risk of severe disease and death also echoes...

Dr. Michael Osterholm warned viewers of Morning Joe that a sharp spike in Covid-19 infections in the coming three to four weeks means “we’re going to have a hard time keeping everyday life operating.” The Director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota and member of President Joe Biden’s COVID-19 Advisory Board appeared on MSNBC Thursday morning to discuss the sharp rise in coronavirus cases brought about by the Omicron variant and new CDC guidelines that shorten the recommended time to quarantine for asymptomatic individuals following a positive test.

The study, which has not been peer-reviewed, found that people who were infected with Omicron, especially those who were vaccinated, developed enhanced immunity to the Delta variant. The analysis enrolled 33 vaccinated and unvaccinated people who were infected with the Omicron variant in South Africa.

With the mainstream media scrambling to keep the fear factor over the Omicron factor pegged to the Max, with much of Europe in the process of locking down amid the 5th covid wave despite cases now clearly declining across most countries...... while in the US the Biden administration - too scared for now to impose a new round of draconian lockdowns - set to deploy 1,000 military troops to back up hospitals if they face a wave of omicron patients in January and February, Deutsche Bank's Shreyas Gopal finds some actually good news.Noting that Omicron has spread like wildfire in...

You can see it in their eyes, you can hear it in their voices, you can read it in their words, intrusively controlling your life for the five billionth time. Anti-liberty leftists are afraid of Omicron, it haunts them at night while it provides copious excuses for their power by day. This kind of extreme panic was a ‘collective’ experience in the early days of the COVID crisis. With everyone running out en masse to buy toilet paper and hand sanitizer before cowering in their homes.It is different this time around. There’s a giant divide between the believers in the...

Dr. Omar Hamada on Dec. 1 said that the Omicron variant of COVID-19 may provide natural immunity without inducing severe illness, as the symptoms so far resemble more of a “mild, common cold” in South Africa.In an interview with NTD’s “Capitol Report,” the emergency room doctor and former U.S. Army Special Forces lieutenant colonel said that even though “we’re seeing an uptick in [the] number of people affected, the severity of disease seems to be, at this point, minimal.”“If the infectivity is greater, but the virulence or severity is less, this may be actually something good in terms of getting...

A South African official said Saturday that rising COVID-19 infections among children in the country are mild concerns about the rapidly spreading omicron variant in the country. South Africa has seen an increase in hospitalizations in young children and pregnant women, but it is too soon to tell if the increase is from the omicron variant that was first detected in the country, Reuters reported. Ntsakisi Maluleke, a public health specialist in the Gauteng province, told Reuters there were 113 children under the age of nine in the hospital with COVID-19 in the province, an uptick from past coronavirus waves.
