Coronavirus can be treated by cow urine, dung: Hindu Mahasabha president

[Gangetic]

As the coronavirus scare runs across the world with one confirmed case in India, Hindu Mahasabha has proposed bizarre treatment for the dreaded virus infection. Swami Chakrapani Maharaj, president of Hindu Mahasabha, on Friday said cow urine and cow dung can be used for treating novel coronavirus disease. He also said that a special yagna will be performed to "kill the novel coronavirus and end its effects on the world".

"Consuming cow urine and cow dung will stop the effect of infectious coronavirus. A person who chants Om Namah Shivay and applies cow dung on body, will be saved. A special yagna ritual will soon be performed to kill coronavirus," said Chakrapani.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the new coronavirus outbreak a global health emergency after the death toll in China rose to 213 on Friday, with 9,692 confirmed cases in the country's 31 provincial-level regions.

An Air India flight service will evacuate Indians stuck in the city Wuhan due to the outbreak of the virus.

The new virus, which is of the same genre as SARS which broke out in 2003, was first reported in the WHO Disease Outbreak News on January 5, 2020.

oooh, is that why Indians are always eating cow dung and drinking cow urine?

All this time I thought it was due to their messed up "ancient, but not really" ideology.

Indian scientists have found something else as well about this virus.... And it should bother you.

Conclusions

Our analysis of the spike glycoprotein of 2019-nCoV revealed several interesting findings: First, we identified 4 unique inserts in the 2019-nCoV spike glycoprotein that are not present in any other coronavirus reported till date. To our surprise, all the 4 inserts in the 2019-nCoV mapped to short segments of amino acids in the HIV-1 gp120 and Gag among all annotated virus proteins in the NCBI database. This uncanny similarity of novel inserts in the 2019- nCoV spike protein to HIV-1 gp120 and Gag is unlikely to be fortuitous. Further, 3D modelling suggests that atleast 3 of the unique inserts which are non-contiguous in the primary protein sequence of the 2019-nCoV spike glycoprotein converge to constitute the key components of the receptor binding site. Of note, all the 4 inserts have pI values of around 10 that may facilitate virus-host interactions. Taken together, our findings suggest unconventional evolution of 2019-nCoV that warrants further investigation. Our work highlights novel evolutionary aspects of the 2019-nCoV and has implications on the pathogenesis and diagnosis of this virus.

To put it in plain language, the new Coronavirus produces proteins around itself that are not seen in ANY know Coronavirus, when checked else where they are found ONLY in HIV virus. Such kind of presence cannot happen by just luck or randomly or accident. How did this virus came into being is rather unusual and requires investigation.

With respect, a load of clickbaiting is flooding the internet.

Viruses can totally recombine in novel combinations. This isn't biowarfare but quite simply what some viruses do. They can chop and change big chunks of RNA or DNA completely naturally as a result of normal evolutionary pressures.

"Antigenic shift occurs in two ways. First, antigenic shift can occur through genetic recombination, or reassortment, when two or more different influenza A viruses infect the same host cell and combine their genetic material. Influenza A viruses can infect birds, pigs, and humans, and major antigenic shifts can occur when these virus types combine. For example, a pig flu virus and a human flu virus could combine in a bird, resulting in a radically different flu type. If the virus infects humans and is efficiently transmitted among them, a pandemic may occur.

Second, an influenza A virus can jump from one type of organism, usually a bird, to another type of organism, such as a human, without undergoing major genetic change. If the virus mutates in the human host so that it is easily spread among people, a pandemic may result.

In all cases, antigenic shift produces a virus with a new HA or NA subtype to which humans have no, or very few, preexisting antibodies. Once scientists are able to identify the new subtype, a vaccine can generally be created that will provide protection from the virus."

This process is why novel and pandemic flu viruses keep emerging.

It is probably the case that this corona virus has undergone similar transformation due to natural pressures (e.g. in a massive animal market teeming with different subtypes of corona virus or even different viruses altogether that can exchange chunks of genetic code).

I think articles or opinion pieces that suggest this is deliberate biowarfare purely based on the insertion of peculiar chunks of RNA are classic clickbait fear mongering.

I agree with antigenic shift can occur through genetic recombination. Infact that is why Pigs are called the melting pots of flu. They are ideal hosts for recombination. And infact thats how swine flu got its name. It first appeared inside pigs and jumped into humans. All known and all understandable.

What happened here is rather interesting. Though I am also trying to reproduce their results (well using bio-informatics tools like BLAST). They found new amino acid sequences which got inserted into a specific place (receptor) and those sequence were conservered, ie, they appears everywhere in the aminoacids sequences taken from different variants or samples of this new 2019 coronavirus, except when it occurs in bats. So the authors searched for the same sequences and aligned them with other viruses while looking for those viruses in which entire, 100% of the sequence occurs. ALL of them were found in the receptor regions of HIV virus.

This is why they are calling it uncanny and unlikely to happen by accident. This is not antigenic shift through genetic recombination, IMHO. Though I am not as knowledgeable in this subject.

As preprints, papers hosted on bioRxiv are not peer-reviewed, but undergo basic screening and checked against plagiarism.

So that is not really a journal article nor has it been reviewed before being available.

As per the methodology, they only did sequence alignment of sequences in databases...It is not something big nor any of their own work....
from database (not own work)
sequence alignment (basic thing that most scientists do when they find a new strain)

Thats not the interesting part. The part is how they arrived about what should be the query string. The part that is interesting is that ONLY HIV-1 has ALL four inserts. I will say it is an interesting paper. Also interesting is the place where these inserts appear.

BTW, you can also reproduce their work...

Here:
https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blas...stSearch&DBSEARCH=true&QUERY=HKNNKS&SUBJECTS=

You can query all the 4 inserts one by one. Only HIV-1 is the one that comes up in all the four inserts.

Also interesting is the fact that these inserts are conserved. They show up in all variants and samples of the virus.

BTW, as far as peer reviewed work goes. This work is a trillon times better than what OP has posted. Just some junk he found.

Its easy to handwave something, but hard to actually look and understand it.

I dont think that is interesting.

Blast and alignment are 1 of the 1st things scientists do for new strains...Do you think no one from the scientisfic community found this or knows this?

The fact that it is a non peer reviewed paper, kind of speaks volumes!

Unfortunately that junk is flooding your country at an indescribable pace!

How new is interest in this virus again? Is it 100 year old well understood thing?
And yes, global and local alignments are very useful tool. But then so is most of the basic tools in science. It is how they are used which makes things interesting or not. Pray tell me, will you discredit some work just because it uses a technique known since antiquity?

Unfortunately that junk is flooding your country at an indescribable pace!

My country has no junk. @jaibi You wanted to see an ad-hominum, here is your chance. Apparently, now mods have the same issue as well.
