COVID-19 Update: The Golden Time Window for Pharmacological Treatments and Low Dose Radiation Therapy

Other text in scientific journal, 2022

At the beginning of the COVID-19 emergence, many scientists believed that, thanks to the proofreading enzyme of SARS-CoV-2, the virus would not have many mutations. Our team introduced the concept of radiation at extremely low doses in an attempt to establish selected pressure-free treatment approaches for COVID-19. The capacity of low-dose radiation to modulate excessive inflammatory responses, optimize the immune system, prevent the occurrence of dangerous cytokine storm, regulate lymphocyte counts, and control bacterial co-infections as well as different modalities were proposed as a treatment program for patients with severe COVID-19-associated pneumonia. There is now substantial evidence which indicates that it would be unwise not to further investigate low-dose radiation therapy (LDRT) as an effective remedy against COVID-19-associated pneumonia.
