Considering the pandemic brought about by COVID-19, there has been plant-based products/ herbal medicine that is becoming famous as anti-viral drugs, what is your take regarding the use of these plants as treatment? You may search for and state examples of these plants and the supposed mechanism of action to fight off coronavirus. State whether you agree to using herbal drugs as treatment and the reason why.

Data shows that people living with non-communicable diseases (PLWNCDs) are already at a higher risk of severe complications from COVID-19, more likely to be hospitalized, and at a higher risk of death. To make matters worse, the conditions under which they are living during thepandemic have potentially compromised their health even further and increased their risk of falling victim to the virus a. Discuss FIVE factors which may have exacerbated the health of PLWNCDs during theCOVID-19 pandemic exposing them to greater risk. b. For any of the factors mentioned above, comment on TWO approaches that countries may use to curb these challenges.
Answer the following and inlcude the references SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes CoVid-19, belongs to the Coronaviridae family. Viruses under this family have a genome made of single-stranded positive-sense RNA. Is this similar to the viral genome of HIV? If so, do you think that – in theory – they would have similar replication cycles? Do you think that ART combinations/options might help in suppressing the viral replication of SARS-CoV-2? Expound.
Choose all the true statements regarding coronavirus proteins. Vaccine preventable diseases include COVID-19. For coronaviruses, it is more likely to find evolving mutations in the portion of the spike protein than the nucleocapsid protein. Mutations in the genetic code for the spike protein will produce 3D changes that are more likely to affect vaccine efficacy than changes to the nucleocapsid protein code. The nucleocapsid protein interacts with viral nucleic acid specifically whereas the spike protein interacts with the host protein non-specifically.
Aside from antibody-producing vaccines against spike proteins, describe at least 2 other therapeutic strategies that employ knowledge of pathways allowing viral entry into cells and/or mechanisms preventing replication of new viral particles after entry.
Oncogenic viruses may either carry oncogenes within their genome, or affect native genes within the cells they infect, thus having an effect on cell cycle regulation within host cells. 1) True 2) False
Discuss how recombinant DNA technology could be used to develop a control strategy for the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV2 (ssRNA genome) currently causing the COVID-19 pandemic.
topic: Zika Virus write summary on a virus and its tropism for specific hosts, tissues, or cells. For example, you may want to discuss: the distribution/expression of the relevant cell surface receptor or other factors modulating viral entry, or you may want to focus on the environment in a specific niche that makes it conducive for infection by the virus. You can also choose to research a tangential topic like how tropism is considered in vaccine development. thank you-
Discuss the role of each of these factors in the causation of the COVID-19 pandemic. Be specific with respect to the molecular mechanisms responsible for these effects: 1. zoonotic virus origins 2. immunologically naive population 3. SARS-CoV-2 virulence factors affecting transmissibility 4. evolution of immune-resistant virus variants.
The diagram below shows the Covid-19 virus with its spike protein. It also shows the area on the spike protein which binds to the ACE2 receptor (receptor binding domain). Corona Virus Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) Spike Protein In order to get into a cell, the Covid-19 virus needs to bind to the ACE2 receptor. Once bound it is brought into the cell. These receptors are found on cells making up various tissues (oral and nasal mucosa, nasopharynx, lung, stomach, small intestine, colon, skin, lymph nodes, thymus, bone marrow, spleen, liver, kidney, and brain). The symptoms for Covid-19 are linked to the tissue cells the virus infects. To the right is a diagram showing the biding of the spike protein to the ACE2 receptor. SARS-COV-2 Spike (S) Host Cell ACE2 acer
According to the article which was written before the COVID-19 vaccine was created, when do people turn to magic? How can this tendency, which happens across cultures and throughout history, contribute to the current spread of the novel coronavirus and its variants?
Discuss the general mechanisms by which interferon-induced genes block virus replication.
Discuss how recombinant DNA technology could be used to develop a diagnostic method for the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV2 (ssRNA genome) currently causing the COVID-19 pandemic.
