Southern Vietnamese women’s views on HPV vaccination, cervical cancer screening, and HPV self-sampling by Minh Tung Phung, Pham Le An, Lilah Khoja, Alice W. Lee, Celeste Leigh Pearce

“…Three main themes emerged: (1) barriers to prevention included low knowledge, logistical and psychological challenges, and issues related to healthcare providers; (2) participants viewed HPV self-sampling positively, although concerns about incorrect self-sampling and mailing logistics were noted; (3) participants generally accepted cervical cancer prevention and drew parallels to COVID-19 prevention, suggesting similar public health approaches. …”

COVID19 infection and vascular rearrangement/ controlled angiogenesis – A new supportive therapeutic approach in patients with pre-existing ischemic and high-shear vascular conditi... by Debatosh Datta, Gautam Kumar Saha, Nirmal Kumar Ganguly

“…The review highlights a new supportive therapeutic approach where lysine-induced controlled vascular organization (angiogenesis) has been demonstrated in reversal of cerebrovascular ischemic stroke which appears to be one of the few final fatal clinical outcomes of current COVID-19 infections. Further, a parallel supportive time-bound induction of fresh exchange beds, by way of rapid collateral formation, is proposed in all comorbid ischemic patients with the low-molecular-weight angiogen(s), with an objective of mitigation of tissue/organ ischemia.…”
