Human medical trials have begun on severely ill Covid-19 patients using low doses of radiation. Although a very small sample size, the results were quite extraordinary.
Researchers at Emory University Hospital, led by Dr. Mohammad Khan, treated five Covid-19 patients with severe pneumonia who were requiring supplemental oxygen and whose health was visibly deteriorating. Their median age was 90 with a range from 64 to 94, four were female, four were African-American, and one was Caucasian.
These patients were given a single dose of radiation (1.5 Gy, or 150 Rad) to both lungs, delivered front and back beam configuration. Patients were in and out of the Radiotherapy Department in 10 to 15 minutes. This was not a low dose of radiation, but it’s only equivalent to 15 years of living in Ramsar, Iran, and 8 years on a Brazilian Monazite beach. Despite high natural background radiation fields the frequency of cancer and the lifespan of people living in the Ramsar area is not noticeably different when compared to other general populations around the world.
Radiation is not ‘killing the virus’ but is
changing the immune response and may be able to stop the deadly cascade
of the cytokine storm
Within 24 hours, four of the patients showed rapid improvement in oxygenation and mental status (more awake, alert and talkative) and were being discharged from the hospital 12 days later. Blood tests and repeated imaging of the lungs confirmed that the radiation was safe and effective, and did not cause adverse effects—no acute skin, pulmonary, gastrointestinal or genitourinary toxicities.
In theory, the shot of radiation is not ‘killing the virus’ but is changing the immune response and may be able to stop the deadly cascade of the cytokine storm...............
A linear-no-threshold (LNT) assumption exists with ‘assumption’ as the all-important word that needs to be taken literally. While no one disputes that high doses of radiation cause harm, no one has proof that low levels cause harm. Surprisingly, the scientists and government bodies that adhere to the LNT assumption will tell you that no proof of harm at low levels is even possible because the risk is too low to measure statistically. In the absence of proof, they say, the only prudent course is to play it safe by assuming that low levels or radiation cause harm, reports Lawrence Solomon.
Yet, here are some examples:...........To Read More....
