Odd but hopeful news for MS patients

Hello all,

I have been very busy, having attended several online courses focused on MS, and MS and the COVID-19 virus in particular. I wish I had more time to share some of the information. The one fact that must be emphasized is that the COVID virus is surrounded by a fatty envelope. Soap breaks down grease and the fatty envelope is like grease (see the following article for more information).

The other news is a discussion from Bart's MS blog. We are now wondering if immunosuppression may, in fact, be a treatment for more aggressive COVID infection. Simply put, sometimes the immune system gets too heavily activated and instead of helping, may actually make the situation worse. See below.

Praying you all stay safe.
