  • Patent number: 11452785
    Abstract: In general, the patent herein is a radioactive chemical which attaches to the virus and releases radiation which kills the virus. Specifically, the chemical is an alpha-ketoamide designed to attach to the virus. However, instead of 2 bromine atoms, Iodine-131 is at the location of where the bromine atoms would have been. Iodine-131 is a radioactive element which releases ionizing radiation. The virus with which this radioactive chemical is designed for is the COVID-19 coronavirus, although the patent is for any virus. Since, modifications can be made in chemical structure and radioactive chemical species, the patent is for any and all chemicals which contain any type of radioactive element to kill or disrupt any type of virus.

  • Publication number: 20210403880
    Abstract: A system for the rapid development of vaccines or anti-bacterial drugs is required when working with pandemics. The easiest way to formulate these new vaccines is through computational reduction of existing organisms via statistical models. Once vaccine candidates are arrived at through this method, “Super Organisms” containing all of the computationally reducible fragments can then be taken through a Crispr reduction process wherein those computationally reducible fragments are removed. The result is a vaccine candidate which has possible problematic function partially or fully removed. The “neutered” version of the virus can be tested in a lab and in clinical trials for efficacy. This patent covers a vaccine candidate utilizing computationally reducible fragments 100 base pairs or greater in length; those fragments removed from future Covid-19 Super Organisms either collectively (as in this patent) or individually; as well as the RNA transcripts of those fragments.

  • Publication number: 20240075055
    Abstract: Methods for treating coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections, are described. The methods can be used to reduce the severity of outcomes related to COVID-19, such as hospitalization and ventilation. For example, the methods can involve treatment of a subject with a therapeutic agent that degrades hyaluronan and/or an agent that neutralizes a hyaluronan receptor, e.g., CD44, such as an anti-CD44 antibody.

  • Publication number: 20230168247
    Abstract: Methods of detecting SARS-CoV-2 antibodies with improved specificity are described. The methods can include contacting a sample potentially containing SARS-CoV-2 antibodies with a reagent to remove non-anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies, such as a reagent comprising an epitope from a nucleocapsid protein or spike protein of a common coronavirus. The methods can include contacting the sample with a mutant SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein or spike protein comprising a reduced number of common coronavirus epitopes. The methods can involve comparing results from an immunoassay performed with a SARS-CoV-2 protein to results obtained from immunoassays performed with analogous protein from one or more common coronaviruses.

  • Publication number: 20230230705
    Abstract: Assessment of pulmonary function in coronavirus patients includes use of a computer aided diagnostic system to assess pulmonary function and risk of mortality in patents with coronavirus disease 2019. The CAD system processes thoracic X-ray data from a patient, extracts imaging markers, and grades disease severity based at least in part on the extracted imaging markers, thereby distinguishing between higher risk and lower risk patients. An alternative approach is to use an automatic CAD system to grade COVID-19 from computed tomography (CT) images to determine an accurate diagnosis of lung function.

  • Publication number: 20220339456
    Abstract: This “in vivo” medical treatment/diagnostic invention has the “intended use” of bombarding the family of coronavirus cells (and COVID-19 and variants) with an energy beam at a tuned frequency to cause them to resonant at a turbulent velocity the outer shell shatters causing their destruction. A Treatment Probe is advanced through the mouth into the windpipe, then an energy beam of extremely high frequency electromagnetic waves causes the cells to react by oscillating at a turbulence sufficient to shatter their electrostatic viral fields thus denaturing these viral cells The remaining active cells are attack by the body's immune system. Repeating treatment sessions stimulate the body's immune system to denatures/destroys the family of coronavirus cells.

  • Publication number: 20230414650
    Abstract: The invention provides the use of a formulation containing cyclodextrine, quercetin and zinc at appropriate concentrations to mitigate infections by enveloped viruses, such as COVID-19 virus (SARS-CoV-2), influenza and HIV. While the different forms of cyclodextrin prevent the entry of coated viruses into host cells by extracting and sequestering cholesterol molecules at the virus envelope and at the host cell plasma membrane, the natural plant-based ionophore quercetin in the formulation enables cellular entry of zinc, inhibiting viral replication by altering polymerase activity in the host cell. SUBSTANCE: This formulation is adapted for both surface use and introduction to a subject by dispersal, utilizing the known methods of measured nasal sprays or inhalers, wet wipes and medicated masks. The formulation is introduced in the form of an aqueous phosphate buffered saline pH 7.5 solution, containing 0.
