We
have the privilege of having Dr. Ed El Sayed on the show with us
today. Dr. Sayed is an infectious disease doctor, he did his
training, his internal medicine residency, and his infectious
disease fellowship at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, and he
has put together some amazing educational materials which are
available at medQuest Reviews. Additionally, his research is
focused on viral hepatitis and HIV viral kinetics, and he is
currently involved in a number of studies looking for a functional
cure for HIV. He is also a member of the Jewish Medical Community
in Brooklyn.
In
this discussion with Dr. Sayed, we converse primarily about the
COVID-19 virus and related topics. In order to dispel the great
confusion among people everywhere with regard to this virus and how
one may protect themselves and their loved ones from it, Dr. Sayed
teaches us all about what we do and do not know with regard to this
Corona Virus.
Among
the topics discussed are the six-feet social distancing rule, the
relationship between social injustices in our society and the
prevalence of general health in various racial communities, the
usage of the hydroxychloroquine drug for treating the Corona Virus,
whether (and when) wearing a mask is effective or not, potential
prospective vaccines, and philosophies of medical
education.
