 The 2019 coronavirus is a RNA virus which possess the ability to mutate and change its form. Covid-19 mutation has occurred and it is leading to a second wave. Despite the progress in covid-19 vaccine although there were few case of those who are allergic to the vaccine, the COVID has reappeared in a new form, causing the UK to close its borders to neighboring European countries. The new coronavirus SARS-Cov-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory syndrome of Coronavirus) is shown to be more deadly and life threaten to human existence than COVID-19. Normally viral mutation always lead to a weaker virus and slightly different from the previous one but this is different. Leaving one to study the behavior of this mutated virus. One is concerned if it could reinfect those who were former victims of the virus. What does this say about the vaccine, we have had other RNA diseases such as measles which vaccine had protected individuals for years despite the mutation of the virus. We believe the mutat...

 Since the out break of the pandemic, research has been ongoing in finding a vaccine for the deadly covid-19 virus. Since January, testing had been carried out but vitro and clinical trials started in March. And we are about to see the final testing. Pfizer covid-19 vaccine which is one of the vaccines has already been approve by the UK and it's awaiting approval by the FDA. Pfizer is one of the leading pharmaceutical company which vaccine is approved and it is being administered in the UK as we speak. The order of the vaccination would be the front line health workers, the elderly who happened to be more vulnerable to the disease and others. There was one health policy by the Obama administration that allows a micro-chip to be planted into humans to gain access to medical care as soon as it is scanned. Many of the people resisted it, they believed it could be a mark predicted in the Bible (The mark of the beast 666). There is a movement most of the democratic leaders like Obama, B...

The ear is one of the most important sense organs of the human body and could be very inconvenient if one gets really troubled with it. The ear is divided into three parts: the outer part, middle and the inner part. The pressure between the out and the inner ears must be balance to cause inconveniences. Ear Barotrauma is a disturbance experience especially when one boards the airplane. It might not be that common but to a certain percentage, it disturbs the ear drum. It occur when there is a change in pressure when one is in the air or water. It is commonly experience during scuba diving in water or in the  airplane when one  ascend or descend the air.   This is different from ear tinnitus which is a symptom of some underlying disease, this could be controlled by little exercise before boarding the airplane or scuba diving. One can decide to chew gum or chew as one enters the environment that changes the pressure between the outer and the inner part of the ears. It usuall...

In our part of the world, reproduction or inability to conceive is always blamed on the female but it's worthy of note that it's a mutual responsibility and shouldn't be tilt to a particular gender.  The semen is a white (graylike) substance which carries the spermatozoa (sperm cells). And keep them alive (some say 5 days when released to the female reproductive track) till it fertilizer an ovum. It takes one (1) sperm cell to fertility one ovum (egg) in order to conceive; notwithstanding the body produces millions of sperm cells in a day, it produces 1,500 sperm cells in a second. When one ejaculate semens, the body releases 20-300 million sperm cells in one ejaculation. Only one is needed to fertilize an ovum. These sperm cells produced daily, need days to mature to spermatozoa. Matured spermatozoa have a head, that contains the genetic part of the male. The conception of a male or female child is a function of the X and Y chromosome from the male spermatozoa and fe...

TCM Nigeria according to this blog simply means traditional Chinese medicine, practiced in Nigeria. Unlike other websites which focus on cables and cable connectors like RJ45, RJ11 cable connectors. These are connectors that help computers and telephones communicate. The RJ45 connector can be crimped in two ways, we have the straight through crimping which allow computer network devices to communicate along a network and a crossover cable crimp which only allows two computers to communicate with one another. Networking is a big feed of ICT and tcmnigeria.net have tons of details on it. But this website focuses on traditional or alternative Nigerian practice to getting well and preventing illness. We explore  Phytotherapy  and the way it is administered in Nigeria for healthier living. One of the most common tree found in Nigeria is the  moringa oleifera  tree which is a very good remedy for crashing blood sugar and it is very nutritious. It helps prevent...

After the fun of last night at the big brother naija house yesterday oh look, more than a thousand words (you could continue with the story by clicking here ). I thought I should take a pause from corona watch and discuss what attracts people to you apart from being physically developed in front of the chest. The secret is in nature's way of Revitol.  Revitol Lucent skin  comes in different packs for different touches on the skin, let me highlight them: Revitol Skin Brightener: It is combined with natural vitamins, minerals and extracts to help prevent skin discoloration. It doesn't contain harsh chemical and binders. In a few weeks, one could lighten up the dark spot of the skin and give the body a flawless look.  Lucent Eye cream: sometimes we forget the skin around the eyes. Please don't get it twisted, we are not saying it should be applied in the eye, but around the eye. It is made of hyaluronic acid, captex 800 and white protein. Lucent Anti-a...

The United States recorded one of the highest cases of coronavirus in just 2 days recording 36,000 cases. Just after hopes were raised in seeing the end of the pandemic this year summer. The attitude of most persons towards the flatting of the curve is proving abortive. The question in the lips of most citizens is, "would there be a possibility of another lockdown in most of the states after the wave of the increase of the infected victims?". The COVID - 19 precautionary measure is not a joke and could be prevented by social distance and wearing of mask. It is not a theory to alter natures way of respiration. If wearing of face mask is deadly, most of the doctors who wear personal protective equipments like face mask wouldn't be alive by now. One needs to protect one's self because most of the asymptomatic patient are on the street and they could spread the disease even if they feel well. Wearing protective face don't only prevent you but other around you fro...

Much food is in the tillage of the poor: but there is that is destroyed for want of judgment (Prob 13:23).  I have struggled with the meaning of that part of the Holy Bible, may be a brain teaser for those who wants to ponder. My people say, well roasted pork meat (dog meat) is sweet but what would one eat before it's ready. Lack of employment or underemployment is one big issue in my country. If you are under employed, just thank your lucky stars you have a Job. Now N-Power 2020 registration is opened again, a time to luckily get yourself on an employment so you don't get destroyed by lack of judgment. There is food in digital marketing, all you need to do is to calculate the money you get to pay in going to work for 7 days (round trip), go to a nearby vendor to buy data with it, sit at home and send emails daily; It is called email marketing. The food in this tillage gives you above $50 for a single conversion. The only investment you have to give is your daily trans...

It is a good thing that the world is not sleeping. Coronavac was promised during Autumn (September - December), now a university scientist who specializes in medical virology, immunology and bioinformatics from Adeleke university Ede Osun state Dr Oladipo Kolawole has found a vaccine for Africa. Dr Oladipo who happened to be the team lead said he had collected genome of the disease from different part of Africa and he is convinced it would not only work for Africa but other race. We are expecting his locally made vaccine not yet to be given a name made by Africa for Africans to be ready in 18 months. We are looking earnestly for a cure and hope this disease won't stay too long with mankind. Presently, the disease has claimed the lives of 471, 000 souls, 9 million confirmed cases and about 4.5 million recovered cases. News like this gives us hope to a answered prayer.

The Chinese government is making headway in finding a vaccine for Covid-19. They have succeeded in testing it on Animals and presently carrying out clinical trials. They have promises of having it ready by autumn. The vaccine is called coronavac. The Chinese government have promised to release this vaccine to Africa free of charge. Guess it's a way to strengthen the ties between China and Africa. The test had already proven successful with monkeys and we shall soon see a light at the end of the tunnel. It is not easy staying at home but this period would have given establishment an idea on how to work from home. By this some of the office expenses like internet bills, water, and some Petty cash would be saved if companies adopt some of the lessons from the pandemic lockdown. Meetings could be held on weekends in people's homes, saving cost for venues and other lite refreshments. We indeed sympathize with those who fell victim of this pandemic and pray for their families....

There is a popular clichee in my country that goes, "what we go in search for in sokoto, is right in the pocket of our sokoto". It means the solution to ones problem that made him traveling the world is just right within his reach. Dexamethasone was a drug manufactured in 1960 and has proven to help treat those with critical case of COVID -19, those under respiratory support. It is an anti-inflammatory drugs that has shown progress in helping curb critical case of covid-19. The body release immune body to fight illness. When this prolong in the body, it leads to inflammation which could cause pain and anxiety. Sometimes this inflammation occur in sickness that is untreated. What Dexamethasone does is to damp the immune system invariably, reduce inflammation. We in this blog had already discussed hemp in one of our post. We know cannabis possess thesame ability as an anti-inflammatory remedy. It has the power to damp the immune system ( hemp-seed-oil ). We mentioned ...

The world is doing a good Job in containing the virus and we can see how the stocks market is picking up in the US and Asia. We also heard UK, would be easing the lockdown soon while the world research on a possible vaccine for the coronavirus. Here comes a 46 years old Jamaica who claims to have the cure to some many sicknesses including the novel COVID-19. Carlton Bennett aka king Yeshua who has been practicing herbal medicine for 20 years, claimed to have learnt the practice from his grand mother who died at the age of 105 and left him the legacy. He claim herbal medicine could cure any disease including the covid-19. Many are coming to believe in phytotherapy, hope we see the end this disease.

Nigeria Center for disease Control (NCDC) had validated the first phase of the extraction of the viral ribronucleic acid (RNA) which would enable mass and cheap local reagents for the testing of the COVID -19 virus. The reagents is in global shortage, so this breakthrough would enable Nigerians carry out more than 20,000 test a day, to help fight the spread of the coronavirus. The validation took place at the National Biotechnology Development Agency in Abuja Nigeria. This success is not limited to Nigeria along but to Africa as a whole, the project is to help put an end to the shortage of reagents for testing the virus in the whole of Africa. The project is a Pan-African project which include, Ethiopia, NCDC, University of Sheffield Uk and many others with the African Development Bank to support funding. Interestingly, the RNASwift Test kit was developed by a Nigerian Dr Alison Nwokeoji at the University of Sheffield, Uk. This comes to say, Nigerians could be producti...

Eid ul fitr is an Islamic holiday to celebrate the end of their 30 days fast. It is also called the festival of breaking of fast. The India and also the US stock market is to be close today Monday to honour the festival. There is something unique about this year's Islamic fast and the Eid ul fitr holiday, which is the birth of the new novel pandemic, the COVID 19. Many have prayed against it, but it is important we still take caution on the hygiene measures to prevent the virus. Respiratory hygiene, washing of hand and social distance. Avoid touching of the eyes, nose and mouth. We should also know that COVID 19 is not a death sentence, one could recover from it, if one have a good immune system. It is a bad time to smoke cigarettes and consume excessive alcohol. One could add to there diet oranges and other immune boosting food items. One could consider  Circumin 2000  very nice immune boaster. Note it is dangerous for those with underlining sickness to be infected wit...

Penny stocks has mentioned in previous post is very volatile, so one needs to tread carefully not to get burnt.  We quite understood we are at war, this time it is not a battle of guns and arsenals but a health pandemic battle. During wars, government do not mind spending whatever it takes to win, coupled with the fact that the war is against humanity, everyone is doing all it takes to fight the pandemic. So financing whatever vaccine for this pandemic shouldn't be a problem; we never can tell what company could come out with a possible solution, maybe micro-cap? Health penny stocks has huge potential of growing faster compare to large cap health company but it is very risky. They might not be able to finance their debt if they don't sell there product or service in time and could be bought over by larger companies. The larger the risk, the better the reward; nevertheless, one need to look out the following before taking the risk. This includes: The product and...

Stocks of a company is all the shares in which the owners of the company or cooperation is divided. It determines the voting power or the the share proceed of the company's after liquidation of asset. The owners of shares of a company are called the stockholders (shareholders). There are different type of stocks some comes without voting power or share profit. As discussed in previous post we have the penny stocks (microcap) and the blue Chip stocks. Please read to be acquainted about stocks but what is in the mind of almost every investor is what determines the price of stocks. It is like the major law of demand and supply. If we have more buyers for a particular stocks to sellers, the price would rise. If we have more sellers for a buyers, the price would drop. Giving birth to the fraud called, "pump and dump". The FBI helps to check fraud to protect the interest of investors. Here people says good things about a stock claiming they have inside information that wo...

One very pressing question women ask which is not a bad question after all is "How Can I get pregnant?" Some say they don't enjoy sex with condoms. Well all this could be solved if you know your fertility period and your safe period. For those looking for the fruit of the worm, you should be mindful and sexually active during your fertility period. For those in there journey of fornication, please do take note of your safe period. To know your safe period and fertility period, please study your menstrual cycle for six (6) month.

If you had it on the 24th then it would be 28days. You keep this record for 6 month. Then you know the shortest and longer days it takes you to see your period.

The big question is, "what would you do after the lockdown". 90% of The United State had been on lockdown, over the weekend,  the lockdown was eased. Guess where most of them congregated without face mask? The bar. Some state had allowed some shops to reopen and many are awaiting May the 7th for schools to reopen.  The one and only rules have always known about trading in stocks or commodity market is buying low and selling high. We know the pandemic had crashed the economy, and so many stocks are dropping except health stocks that is rising. This would be a good time for investors to buy into the market and not quickly dump there shares. Stock crashes faster than it grows, if one  would ever want  to make it in the stock market, the time is now.  We would be doing our best in analyzing some of the health stocks in the market. We have so many markets to buy from, we have forex, commodity, stocks and the rest of them. Stocks are categories into two, ...

There is a common saying in Yoruba, let me try and translate it in English; "there is no circumstances that befall a man that God don't get praised". It is no longer news that Twitter has instructed his 5,000 staffs that they could continue to work from home forever even after the pandemic is over. Google and Facebook said they should work from home for the rest of this year. But twitter came up with a tweet to express how successful working from home has been and told it's employee that they could decide not to return to work even after the pandemic.  That would be an exciting news to some home because, parents would pay more attention to there homes. Spouses would get to understand one another invariably limit divorce. And of course we get reduce road traffic. There are businesses especially the showbiz that would need to cut salaries. Some sport club had cut down some of the salaries of there sportsmen and most religious institution's are closed and loosing...

We know that the challenges facing herbal medicine is expected after the new found cure and prevention phytotherapy for the Novel pandemic COVID-19 (Corona disease discovered in late December 2019). Some in there disbelief about this virus have coin it COVID-419; to call it scam claiming it is an avenue for people in power to embezzle money. The herb is got from the famous Artemisia used in treating malaria in time past and other substances.

Other countries like the US had advice the government to carry out necessary test and be careful how they consume herbs that is not scientifically proven. Sure Nigeria have the National Institute of Research and Pharmaceutical development (NIRPD) and the Nat...

Well can I call it breaking news, or staled news because another person; a female in her early 30's was tested positive to coronavirus. She came in from the UK and decided to keep the 14 days quarantine measure to prevent the spread of the virus. When she discovered symptoms of the virus, she called the emergency department and she had been taken to mainland hospital in Yaba Lagos state where she is undergoing treatment. She is the third person in Nigeria testing positive to colonavirus. China where the disease was first discovered is becoming free from it because of the measure used in tackling it. They called it the Draconian measure. They sealed the city where it was believe to have originated. Chongqing, Yang's hometown bordering Hubei, has had more than 500 confirmed cases since the disease started to spill into the municipality. But now, there have been no cases in the city for several days. The slowdown is not only in Chongqing. Across the country, 13 out of 3...
