5 Quick Ways to Deal With Corona COVID-19 Virus Outbreak, Proven Effective!


Not long ago there was a viral video made by the artist Instagram account Edward Suhadi who adapted the Washington Post's explanation of the corona virus (COVID-19). Through the video, he explained that we must "fatten the curve" or chart the severity of the corona virus to stop the outbreak.
What does it mean? And how's that? Take a look at the chart above! The part above the dotted line is the number of people who are at risk of dying from the corona virus. While the section below shows people who are infected.

When the graph approaches the horizontal line, it means that more people are infected. But the lower the death rate because more people are recovering. This means, the plague will end soon.

But to achieve this, cooperation from all elements of society is needed. Including the government, medical personnel, every individual, and the most important is you. Well, here are a number of steps taken by various countries to overcome the corona virus outbreak, which has proven successful, but it requires our joint participation. Come on, listen!

1. Social distancing
Lately we often hear this term, but what does it really mean? According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), social distancing is the prevention of close contact between healthy and sick people to avoid disease transmission. Experts say that this is the most effective way to reduce the graph that was mentioned above.

According to the CDC, there are many ways of social distancing that we can apply. The following are:
Avoid meetings that involve large numbers of people;
Maintain a minimum distance of two meters from others as much as possible;
Do not cuddle, shake hands, chips, and other physical contact;
Avoid people who show symptoms of pain.


2. Work from home
Work from home or work from home is one of the ways of social distancing that has now been widely applied to workers in Greater Jakarta. It's not all, but there are already enough offices that implement the CDC's recommendation policy.

Not only for workers, work from home also applies to school students and students. Working and learning from home is a step that should be quite effective in reducing the risk of corona virus transmission. We will not meet many people every day, no need to ride public transportation, eating patterns and personal hygiene are more awake.

3. It is better not to go outside the city and abroad
Have you heard the government's appeal a few days ago? For the time being, we should not go out of town and abroad. Especially for business trips. Sure, airplane tickets and other accommodations are cheap and it seems a shame if not utilized.

But try, deh, think of the consequences. For those of you who are young, you may not be too worried about contracting it. But please note that you can become a carrier virus without showing any symptoms. Then you can pass it to other people who are more vulnerable. Don't want that to happen, right?

4. Considerations for Lockdown in heavily infected areas
Lately, many people are worried about lockdown, which is an emergency protocol that prevents people from leaving and entering an area. This policy took place in Wuhan (China), Daegu (South Korea), and most recently a number of cities in Italy.

When lockdown occurs, schools are usually closed, workers are required to work from home, all events are canceled, and in essence everyone is not advised to leave the house. Although this method often stresses the population, its effect in slowing the rate of the virus is quite significant.

According to a recent study published by medRxiv, the lockdown effort of Wuhan City, China succeeded in reducing 202 thousand cases of corona virus. This effort also succeeded in reducing air pollution in the country so drastically that the symptoms in patients also subsided.

5. What do people have to keep doing outside?
Doing the methods above is certainly not an easy problem. There are certain jobs that force us to move outside and the crowd. For example medical personnel, public service employees, retail employees, and those who are paid daily.

If you belong to this group, there is no need to force yourself. Just take care of yourself, your health and your cleanliness. The virus will not infect if you have a strong immune system.

What are Corona and COVID-19 viruses? This Info Needs to Know


Corona virus currently has infected more than 100 countries in the world and caused 6,400 people died. The WHO has declared the Corona virus a pandemic.
That is, the Corona virus has spread to almost the entire world and the world population is likely to be infected with this virus. So, a portion of the world's population will fall ill.

So, what is a Corona virus?
Corona virus or COVID-19 is a virus that attacks the human respiratory system. This virus is still associated with the cause of SARS and MERS which had erupted a few years ago.

Causes of Corona Virus
Until now there is no known cause of the Corona virus, but it is known that this virus is spread by animals and is capable of transmitting from one species to another, including humans. It is known that Corona virus originated from Wuhan City in China and appeared in December 2019.

Danger of Corona Virus
Based on research, the danger of Corona virus can cause death. In fact, infected and cured patients will experience permanent damage to the lungs and antibodies.
Symptoms of Corona Virus
Corona virus appears with several different symptoms in the patient's body. However, in general, the symptoms of the Corona virus are flu, fever, cough, to shortness of breath.

Healing Corona Virus
Until now there has not been found a drug to treat the Corona virus. However, there have been recorded some people who have recovered from the Corona virus after undergoing isolation and hospitalization.

Test the Claim of Efficacy of COVID-19 Antidote Herbal Medicine




Ginger, turmeric, and ginger are good for increasing endurance, but not necessarily able to cure COVID-19.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19 attacked, all products with claims of prevention and healing suddenly sold well on the market, not to mention the variety of archipelago spices such as ginger, turmeric, and ginger. They are believed to be able to increase endurance so that it can counteract the transmission of the corona virus.

Let's examine the health claims of materials that were the allure of the colonialism.

Before discussing the ingredients in ginger and other rhizome plants, we should first understand the immune system. The human body and animals have a unique mechanism to ward off various dangerous pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. The "gatekeeper" mechanism of the immune system was discovered by Bruce Beutler and Jules Hoffmann.

They revealed that the immune response has an innate and adaptive phase to ward off pathogens. As reported by the Nature page, pathogens invade the body through open wounds or mucosa. Therefore to prevent transmission of COVID-19, we are asked to diligently wash hands and avoid holding faces.

Because a virus-contaminated hand can become a medium of transmission when it touches the eyes, nose, or mouth. When it enters the body, pathogens will multiply and have a mission to damage cells in the body, aka making disease. But, their journey to reach this stage is not easy.

Pathogens will be blocked by macrophages (cells in the tissue in white blood) as the vanguard of body guards. The war between the two will invite reinforcements from other sidelines in the white blood tissue, called neutrophils. The second layer of the army is tasked with preventing pathogens from making further damage such as infections and diseases.

If the war is still fierce, then the dendritic cells that from the beginning oversee the course of the war will call in additional troops in the form of antigens. Then T cells and B cells advance to the battlefield against pantogens, they produce weapons in the form of antibodies to paralyze the enemy.

When the army wins against the enemy, the body cells that die from the war grow back. While immune cells that have finished work will commit suicide. But they leave memory cells that record the characteristics of enemies, these memory cells will recognize and kill the same enemy in the future and form adaptive immunity.

Thanks to comprehensive exposure from Bruce Beutler and Jules Hoffmann, the world of modern medicine has finally found a way of developing, preventing and treating various kinds of infections, inflammatory diseases, and even cancer.

God Plant rhizomes
Ginger has long been believed to have the ability to relieve various symptoms of ailments such as colds, nausea, arthritis, migraines and hypertension. This fact is listed in the second edition of Herbal Medicine: Biomolecular and Clinical Aspects. This herb which is commonly consumed with honey offers anti-inflammatory compounds including antioxidants - substances that protect the body from damage by free radicals.

A study by Sepide Mahluji, et al (2013) concluded that ginger supplements taken orally succeeded in reducing inflammation in patients with type 2 diabetes. Ginger supplements can also reduce digestive disorders, bloating, and intestinal cramps.

While other research published in the journal Ethnopharmacol (2013) mentions steeping fresh ginger - we know it as ginger - has antiviral properties and antibacterial properties. The research team found that ginger can counteract the virus that causes respiratory infections (HRSV).

It's just that the dose of ginger in the study averaged high doses, so the effect of the ginger "antidote" corona was unknown - the average dose was uncertain or the dose supervised by experts.

Chairperson of the Indonesian Medical Herbal Medicine Association (PDHMI) Hardhi Pranat called another herbal plant, turmeric containing curcumin which works to increase endurance. Similar benefits are provided by polyphenols in ginger. Turmeric also has anti-cataracts which can increase mucus production.

The mucus can help remove the virus when attacking the respiratory tract. It's just that Hardhi underlines these effects can only be obtained after consuming herbal rhizomes routinely in the long term.

Its usefulness also only helps increase endurance, not kill viruses or bacteria. Moreover, the corona virus in the drug's healing claim is not necessarily SARS-CoV-2 which triggers COVID-19. But corona virus can cause common colds.

"Don't compare ginger or turmeric like antibiotics (which kill bacteria)," Hardhi said.

The Solution Is Just Wash Your Hands
From Vietnam, which succeeded in healing all COVID-19 patients, Indonesia needs to learn that the government has a big role in prevention and treatment.

Dr Kidong Park, WHO representative in Vietnam, said Vietnam's success was the fruit of proactive and consistent government efforts. Two weeks after the COVID-19 case was first announced, the Ministry of Health of Vietnam immediately banned about 10,000 residents of Son Loi from leaving the house for 20 days.

They also closed schools, stopped imports, and banned the consumption of wild animals. At the same time the government is increasing intensive surveillance, laboratory testing, ensuring infection prevention and control and case management in health facilities, as well as providing risk communication, and multi-sectoral collaboration.

"At the healing stage the doctor will treat the patient's symptoms, patients are asked to undergo a strict nutritious diet. Then the level of oxygen saturation in a patient's blood is always monitored, "wrote Al Jazeera summarizing the efforts made in this country.



Do not forget the call to always wash hands, conduct temperature checks, and spray disinfectants in public places. Presumably by far the most effective way to prevent the spread of COVID-19 is hand washing, while healing is still supportive.

WHO has also warned that antibiotics do not work to cure COVID-19 because they only function in bacterial infections. While viral infections such as SARS-CoV are only vaccines - not ginger or other gaps.


Most viruses (including SARS-CoV-2) are composed of RNA, proteins and lipids. Imagine the shape of this virus resembling a wall composed of bricks with an adhesive in the form of a combination of hydrogen bonds. They are increasingly firmly attached to rough surfaces such as wood, cloth, and leather because rough surfaces form more hydrogen bonds.

The strong foundation of a virus can only be broken down with moisture, sunlight (UV light), and heat (molecular motion). So washing your hands with soap has proven to be the most effective way to destroy a stronghold of the virus. Judging from its constituent structure, soap contains a fat-like substance known as amphiphiles (structurally similar to lipids in a viral membrane).

"Soap molecules compete with lipids and other non-covalent bonds that help proteins, RNAs and lipids stick together," explained Palli Thordarson, a chemist from the University of New South Wales, quoted by Market Watch.

In short, soap dissolves the glue that holds the virus together. Disinfectants, or liquids, tissues, gels, and creams that contain alcohol have a similar effect but are not as effective as soap. The antibacterial agents in these products do not affect the structure of the virus much.

It's okay to drink ginger and the like rhizome to strengthen the immune system. What's wrong is to think of everything as a COVID-19 drug. Though we have a more practical way, which is enough to wash hands with soap.

Do you often take a bath tonight?



Do you often take a bath tonight?

Maybe you've heard this myth. But do you ever think that this myth is it true what they are?
According to experts, the myth that was already circulating in society is not true. Here are a sister Aida this statement ..

According to Sister Aida, shower at night really does not have negative impacts on health care for people who do not have a history of certain diseases such as arthritis, heart disease and asthma.

He acknowledged, if the night air, especially in Indonesia that higher humidity so that when the body is already cold given the cold water will be stiff. "No problem, as long as a healthy body condition and no rheumatic disease, heart disease and asthma,".

For patients with rheumatic diseases is not recommended to bathe at night, because with the coldness of the body and joints will make the affected joints become stiff arthritic pain that will arise as we know it as an attack of rheumatism. "So if you can bathe more morning why should always shower at night, so the body so it does not freeze. To avoid unintended consequences, ".

Actually the night bathing habits do not directly affects the incidence of rheumatic diseases. Bath night will affect the incidence of joint pain if it already has a history of rheumatic disease.
