we all know to avoid people who are
coughing and sneezing but there's also a
worry about so-called silent spreaders
people who are showing no signs of
coronavirus at all but can still pass on
the virus
let's transpo quit dr. oz about that and
a lot more silence Brett errs appear to
be a much more common phenomenon that we
initially appreciate it there's a lot of
people who are pre-symptomatic in other
words they're going to get sick in two
three days but apparently you can spread
the virus even before you have the
actual symptoms and there's some people
just never knew they were sick so not
everyone has a big problem that's good
in a way because most of us thankfully
will get through this without an issue
but it's bad because you won't know for
sure why it's up I think to a lot of
people who are at rest the older folks
with chronic conditions to self isolate
they need to be hyper vigilant because
some of the loves you dearly may not
realize they could infect you I also
asked dr. oz about a raging debate
should you take ibuprofen the common
pain reliever found in motrin and advil
if you're fighting coronavirus it
started after the French health minister
said ibuprofen can make symptoms worse
here's the concept the theory these
anti-inflammatory drugs in that family
of ibuprofen seem to block one of the
the pathways by which the the lung
protects itself and so it makes it
easier for the virus to invade in our
lung tissue and that will be a problem
that we don't know if that's true I've
called a lot of experts because I'm
curious about it as well but for now I
think the smart thing to do is to use a
cinnamon offend in other words tylenol
family of drugs to bring your fever down
and use that as your primary gauge don't
use have a profane family the motrin
family for now there are growing fears
that the heroes on the front lines
America's health care workers are
running low on face masks and other PPEs
personal protective equipment just how
big of a risk is a face mask urge for
medical professionals vice president
pence is calling on construction
companies to donate masks to hospitals
and also not to order anymore so that
manufacturers can concentrate on medical
personnel we need a lot more masks than
we ever thought we'd ever be able to
consume in a year and we need to get
them anyone who can share them with us
yes construction sites as a possibility
but frankly when people when I see
people walking around the streets with a
n95 mask that's poor
effective against coronavirus in Tuscon
it's bothersome to me because I know
that mask might protect you a little bit
that will protect the nurse or doctors
putting her life on the line a lot
