Stopping lethal lung damage from the flu with a natural human protein.
The raging lung inflammation that can contribute to death from the flu can be stopped in its tracks by a drug derived from a naturally occurring human protein, a new animal study suggests. In mouse studies, all untreated animals given a lethal dose of influenza died within days. All but one of the infected

COVID cough vs normal Mucus type cough
With all this COVID stuff going on it’s pretty scary. But I have what I’d call a chesty cough on and of for almost a year now and I’d say 80% of the time I cough up thick lumps of mucus. From what I’ve read and been told this is nothing like a COVID cough but obviously it’s scary. Don’t have a fever

Reaction to the flu jab.
I wondered if anyone has had a reaction to the flu jab. I must have had about 16/17 in the past of which at least three or four must have been when I was on steroids with my first bout of PMR. Before that I have had them at work when I was nursing. Never a reaction and hardly a sore arm. This time

Flu jab if you are in remission?
I have looked over the various flu jab posts and see that the advice is to definitely get it! Is your advice any different for someone who is in remission? I have been off prednisone (for PMR) about 18 months. I have never had a flu jab because I luckily do not get the flu. I am very concerned that

Total thyroidectomy and the flu jab
Hi, I am 60 years old, I had a total thyroidectomy 2 years ago because of a substernal goitre and take Levothyroxine. When I contacted my GP practice to arrange my very first flu jab, the receptionist told me that my profile hadn’t flagged up on their system and therefore I wouldn’t be getting an invite

No flu jabs available
I just went to the doctors to get my flu jab. They said that there were no flu jabs available for anyone under 65 even with pre existing health conditions, this is by government orders. I checked this out with several local pharmacies and it is correct. I am 60 with COPD, I feel like I am being thrown

A step toward a universal flu vaccine.
Each year, the flu vaccine has to be redesigned to account for mutations that the virus accumulates, and even then, the vaccine is often not fully protective for everyone. Researchers at MIT and the Ragon Institute of MIT, MGH, and Harvard are now working on strategies for designing a universal flu
