4:47 am
easy. 30 c mckaylin as well as the i have damaged my lungs. it puts a strain on me at work and sometimes makes it difficult to breathe because peter lou sh. treating the dangerous long term consequences of a covert infection is a challenge. world wide. johan ramirez met a long covey sufferer in quito the capital of ecuador. estefan, ron had coven, 19 back in 2020. 2 years later, he still having his blood tested every 2 months. the initial infection left him bed bound for 11 days. but it wasn't until later that things got really bad. he started suffering from headaches, fatigue, shortness of breath, dizziness and overall weakness. it does, he does. yeah, no,
4:48 am
my life has changed completely that i've had to alter my diet for starters. i think one of the, of the ne, up it'll see moist already that i'm now very strict about particular foods. i can't eat any fat home and i certainly can drink too much alcohol for letting me have a good guess. in her sport used to be a central part of my life. i used to exercise almost every day, but now i can only exercise 2 or 3 times a week. i'm just too weak. i have to do it in small amounts, otherwise my body can't cope on the lumber. on top of these physical effects and limitations on his life, there is also the financial impact. so far, his treatment has cost more than $18000.00 us dollars. and he is one of the lucky ones. as a university professor, he has private health insurance which covers the costs. blood transfusions are
4:49 am
particularly expensive. so far he has had 14 of them a process of the transfer see a transfusions are not just about blood, not go to can. they include a special humor to logical component that i receive, which enables my body to react better with the transfusions reduce my tiredness. i think they help me brain more easily, which is i think it will be done before they enable me to lead a normal life and have time for my work and my family. god, the important law. without them, i would have to keep taking breaks and having naps, to help me relax and recover the yeah, i said about having to see this year for this. but each transfusion costs between $121300.00 us dollars doesn't go water. ecuador was severely affected by the pandemic. despite months of strict locked downs, the virus continued to spread,
4:50 am
and the country's health system was brought to its knees. hundreds of people here are still suffering after effects from the illness, despite no longer testing positive for it. in 10 of the countries 24 federal states, the government has now set up centers offering after care for coven 19 patients. in which case, god bless you, we decided to specially trained some of our medical professionals homeless busy on this as in reading, mainly specialists and pulmonary rehabilitation to be able to deal with the various long problems that occur in defeating it with them so that they can recognize them and help treat them. it says using specific exercises for reactivating lung capacity up the web backup. i see that good more left this every i think this is for patients who have had coven, once or multiple times, will know what he has, mrs. cole. estefan ron has another doctor's appointment. he comes here for
4:51 am
a check up once a month. oh, oh. oh, how are you doing? i'm good. i'm doing much better than i was in those examiners. today's blood test is the 1st one without signs of anemia. we see a normal hemoglobin value of 15.6. a check of your iron levels reveals that your serum iron is normal. michaela is the yield rule you rosetti with them based on your iron deposits are low though. so the hematologist may decide to give you another transfusion to top them up, but i never did. they ask for a step on their own. there's light at the end of the tunnel. he can cycle through kito and he hopes that one day he'll be back to his previous fitness levels. one of the unsettling characteristics of long cove it is that there are no bio mach
4:52 am
has to enable a clear medical diagnosis. that's where all 4 legged friend could come to the rescue. researches in hanover have discovered that specially trained sniffer dogs can detect a long caving infection. this is barling, and this is polly. like all dogs, they have an incredibly sensitive sense of smell. funeral researches at the university of veterinary medicine, hanover, are training the 2 dogs and a dozen others as part of a study on diagnosing long cove. it with training, the dogs are usually able to correctly identify smell samples from infected patients or the fever. so he got his in the accuracy radio surprisingly hi mrs. burleson. movie government. that was also such a eureka moment for us when we began the study that says this by sensitivity, globally, the accuracy rate of dogs is 81 to 86 percent nelson distances x not is portentous
4:53 am
of the dogs are much better than rapid antigen tests. and the internet. so how do dogs detect poet infections? anyone who has contracted the virus, emits volatile organic compounds. the dogs can sniff these out, and apparently even long after a patient has recovered that st. lucie, i'm with a sink under sooner and signs of him, and we actually found out that the dogs were able to identify long covered samples long, but only when they were presented alongside negative samples equal monitoring soon, even eager to pull them present. it wouldn't when presented next to samples of acute cove. it, the dogs preferred the acute samples your coupon code for the account or dash these middest as well or not. so we concluded that there is some kind of degrading odor profile. and we're trying to confirm that in further studies of testing, these are the inner workings of our machine. behind each sniffing hole is
4:54 am
a slot with 2 samples, one with the cove, 19 virus, and one without. the machine was designed to train dogs in the detection of drugs and explosives. research is found that it can also be used with cov it samples. now hidden doors gung after each run all the slides or reposition and show that only one hole contains a positive sample, nuggets like but all other holes contain negative samples. and if the dog keeps its nose in the hole with the positive sample for long enough strung, then of feeding mechanism is triggered for the oxygen isthmus. in a secure laboratory at the university of i, religious prepares the cove, its samples, saliva, sweat, an urine specimens. i used in the training so that they are no longer infectious. the samples are chemically treated beforehand. listen to pulling actimmune, we have to deactivate the samples because dogs and of course the people who trained
4:55 am
the dogs could otherwise get infected. right. now the samples are no longer infectious and can be used for training. in 2020 scientists conducted the 1st tests with the specimens. undiscovered, that's never dogs can indeed like to take coven 19. but could sniffer dogs also be used in every day medical practice? yard as the thing bomb? yes, it's feasible math because the dogs really do it very quickly. heaped smokeless cotton units. what's going there are ways to train them. meanings pulled. there are training programs, not so much for disease detection. at the moment, it's mainly training to detect explosives or drugs, but you can also transfer the expertise to disease detection. what i did conks detects yawn. all the research is in hanover will present their results next year. the world health organization is now also recognizing the potential for using the
4:56 am
animals sensitive noses to detect illness. it wants to support the scientists and they canine assistance into the feature. so coming up on the next coven 19 special join us at a christmas market in berlin. now after 2 years, then does the finally able to serve the public again? mm hm. until then, bye bye. and stay healthy. ah ah! with
