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.

 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.

Semen

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...

Coronavirus precautionary measures not a conspiracy theory

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...
