While the entire world is fighting Covid 19 or coronavirus, it is important to understand what makes this virus so effective and how our strong immune system can help us fight it effectively.

How coronavirus works- In layman’s language

Basically it is a respiratory virus that enters and infects your respiratory system from nose to lungs. Your natural defense or immune system recognises this alien and fights back to protect your body. However, the virus is strong and our immune cells get killed in the process. As a result more immune cells pitch in and we see the result in the form of pneumonia, cold, fever, dry throat and flu-like symptoms. But this is not common cold, this is COVID-19. What happens next is well-known. The virus often defeats the patient’s weak immune system. The patient starts feeling difficulty in breathing. Other vital organs do not receive enough oxygen and fail to function properly. And you know the result.

Fight the Virus by Boosting immunity

Strong immunity helps fight virus including coronavirus

We often take our immune system for granted and do not take steps to boost it unless its weakness is visible in the form of any disease. We have many case of coronavirus patients recovering successful as timely action was taken to kill the virus while boosting the patients’ immunity. Though virus spreads fast invade our system, a strong immune system and fight effectively and defeat the virus successfully.

Salmonella Scandal | Lactalis | Craon

Perhaps for the first time, any food item is being withdrawn from the market due to contamination that caused an outbreak of Salmonalla. The producer of the baby milk powder, Lactalis, a French dairy giant, has announced that it would withdraw some 12 million boxes of powdered baby milk from the markets of some 83 countries in the world.

It is being said that the contamination was noticed at Lactalis factory based in Craon in France, but it was not handled carefully which resulted in its non-stop production and subsequent distribution across the world. Though the authorities have denied this allegation, it is clear that there was some lapse or human error during the production and quality checking phase.

A welcome step by Lactalis

In addition to quickly announcing the withdrawal of its baby milk powder from the market, the company sources say that it is a big lesson for them. The CEO of the company, Emmanuel Besnier has said

But we will learn the lessons of this crisis and draw up a new health and safety plan that is even more strict in consultation with the authorities. Our absolute priority is maximum health safety,”

The company has been headed by Besnier for 17 years and there are some 300 plus employees in Craon factory. The production at the factory was stopped in December 2017.  However, Besnier said that  the production would start in a few months only after ensuring that health safety measures are in place. Further, he promised that appropriate compensation will be provided to the affected families.
