Canadian and American scientists have proposed to treat coronavirus pneumonia radiation.
So, experts from the cancer center Jack ADI in Canada examined the scientific literature and concluded that low-dose x-rays can cut deaths from pneumonia by 20%.
This practice is already used in the United States. The research group of the cancer Institute of Emory University conducted an experiment, which involved 10 patients with COVID-19. They recovered in three days vs 12 days in the control group.
In turn, the American radiologists stated that this method of treatment can have serious side effects, in particular the death of B – and T-cell immunity, which are needed to fight the virus.
Professor from the school of Biomedicine at far Eastern Federal University Galina Reva in an interview with "News" said that while scientists know too little about the nature of the coronavirus, to turn the human body into a testing ground for tests is impossible. Pulmonary fibrosis, according to her, from exposure can only increase.
Previously, scientists have found a link between risk of infection with coronavirus and RH factor.
