Israeli-Made Nasal Spray Reduced SARS-CoV-2 Infection at Mass Gathering
@COVID19Up: A nasal spray may have reduced coronavirus infection rates at a mass gathering during Rosh Hashanah in the highly endemic community of Bnei Brak, according to new, preliminary research.
Some 83 members of an ultra-Orthodox synagogue in Bnei Brak used the nasal spray 'Traffix' during Rosh Hashanah services, and after two weeks, 2.4% of Traffix users were infected with the coronavirus while 10% of non-users were infected with the coronavirus.
The odds ratio for coronavirus infection in Traffix users was reduced by 78%.
The results led the researchers to recommend the use of Traffix in addition to other precautionary measures. No side effects were reported among users. SOURCE | TIP
