This way if the patient has covid, the bleach solution will kill some of the virus so they&amp;#39;won&amp;#39;t be releasing it into the room the entire time their mouth is open.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="https://www.news-medical.net/news/20200827/Blood-thinners-help-reduce-the-risk-of-COVID-19-deaths-study-finds.aspx"&gt;www.news-medical.net/.../Blood-thinners-help-reduce-the-risk-of-COVID-19-deaths-study-finds.aspx&lt;/a&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hospitals in Holland (Europe) published this information: &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ACE2 keeps the substance bradykinin under control. Bradykinin makes blood vessels leak. But when the Covid-19 virus is introduced, ACE2 receptors disappear from the lung cells, giving bradykinine free rein in causing the small blood vessels to leak massively at the site of infection.&amp;quot; The problems of vascular leakage can be aggravated by an inflammatory phase. This causes even more leakage and damage to the lungs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In addition the long lasting vascular leakage and inflammation of the blood vessels will trigger the coagulation cascade leading to thrombosis and eventually scarring of the lungs. Interventions that are started early to treat this leakage have the capacity to prevent these serious complications and might be effective in keeping patients out of the ICU. Based on this shared knowledge, we are now working on the first treatments with Icatibant, a product that can inhibit the effects of bradykinine&lt;/p&gt;
