Summary

In this difficult period of the SARS-CoV-2 (and its variants) infection responsible for Covid-19 diseases, the importance of scientific works and reviews dealing with these viruses has never been more essential and vital. Reports as of 20th April 2021 indicate over 141 million cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection worldwide (with over 3 million deaths recorded). This volume brings together essential data regarding prevention (vaccination), detection, and various approaches (chemotherapeutic drugs and antibodies) to the potential treatment of coronavirus infections. It presents six chapters concerning the following topics:(1) the resistance to the spread of SARS-CoV-2 and related Covid-19 diseases within a population based on the pre-existing immunity of a high proportion of individuals as a result infection or previous vaccination(2) the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic for the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) region, comprising the Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, India, and Afghanistan(3) the effect of candidate drugs chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine on QT interval in infected patients with Covid-19 diseases(4) the antiviral potential of herbal-based immunomodulators(5) the humoral immune response in humans based on anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies to treat Covid-19 diseases(6) the various methods and strategies for diagnosing SARS-CoV-2 (and its variants) infection in hosts/humans.This compilation should prove to be a tool of crucial importance for researchers around the world working on research revolving around coronaviruses, as well as for clinicians confronted by a growing number of patients with COVID-19.

    With technological advances and information sharing so prevalent, health care should be more transparent and easier to access than ever before. So why does it seem like everything about it—from pricing, drug development, and the emergence of new diseases to the intricacies of biologic and precision medicine therapies—is becoming more complex, not less? 
     
     
     
    Rohit Khanna's Misunderstanding Health examines some of today's most revealing health care trends while imploring us to look at these issues with alacrity, humor, and vigilance. Over the course of eighteen short, engaging chapters, Khanna explains 
     
     
     
    ● how unexamined beliefs can endanger patients, drive cost, and increase bureaucracy 
     
     
     
    ● the "Dr. Google" effect on the ways that we seek (or eschew) care 
     
     
     
    ● why our health care costs more than in any other country 
     
     
     
    ● the unintended consequences of using rating sites like Yelp 
     
     
     
    Each provocative chapter covers a familiar aspect of health care in a clear and succinct way. Offering inquisitive listeners a warts-and-all view of American health care, Misunderstanding Health is the book that you'll want to listen to if you know enough to be frustrated by the system but want a deeper dive into its challenges and opportunities.

    Whether you have a bank account in the negative or a million dollars to invest, this book will not be like any other real estate guide you’ve read before. André Stewart not only gives you every single tool to make money in any real estate economic climate, but he also does so while navigating an unprecedented modern economy. If you want to be financially free in an unparalleled time in the history of any country, this is the book for you. 
    In The Real Estate Investing Diet, André Stewart shares practical tools and techniques for gaining financial independence and generating long-term wealth through real estate investing—without using your own personal credit or up front capital. These approaches have been honed from advising tens of thousands of CEOs and executives while working in the banking industry, but this book was written so everyone—from people in poverty to senior executives—can quit their job or supplement their income. There’s no reason everyone can’t live the life they deserve, or feel that they must be chained to a desk in order to succeed. Yet, many people believe this, and the purpose of this book is to help you discover ways to remove limiting beliefs that subconsciously hold you back from reaching your financial goals. 
    To accomplish this, The Real Estate Investing Diet focuses on breaking down your money blueprint, enhancing your mental preparation, and creating the fundamental foundation needed for real estate investing. This book includes calendars, examples, and a strategic plan to help remove the underlying root cause that prevents people from being successful in their financial lives.
