Unveiling the UKHSA and ONS Winter COVID-19 Study - 0 views

  •  
    The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and the Office for National Statistics (ONS) will jointly launch a new study to gather data on COVID-19 this winter. The Winter COVID-19 Infection Study (WCIS) will run from November 2023 to March 2024, involving up to 200,000 participants, UKHSA has said on Monday (October 2). UKHSA previously commissioned the Coronavirus Infection Survey (CIS), conducted by the ONS in collaboration with scientific study leaders from Oxford University, analysing more than 11.5 million swab tests and 3 million blood tests from April 2020 to March 2023. Meanwhile, the Winter CIS study involves conducting up to 32,000 lateral flow tests weekly, providing vital insights into COVID-19 prevalence in the broader community. The sample will be structured to broadly reflect key population characteristics.

How to Get Rid of Tonsil Stones (How to remove tonsil stones ) - 0 views

  •  
    The Tonsil stones, those white or yellow clumps nestled amidst your Tonsils Stones, can be unpleasant and uncomfortable. While harmless in most cases, their bad odor and irritation can be bothersome. Thankfully, several safe and effective methods can help you dislodge those pesky stones. Understanding the Basics: Tonsil stones form when dead cells, bacteria, and mucus get trapped in the crevices of your tonsils. While they often dislodge on their own, some folks experience persistent stones requiring intervention. Here's how to tackle them: Home Remedies: Gargling with warm salt water: Mix 1/2 teaspoon table salt in a glass of warm water. Gargle several times daily, allowing the solution to bathe your tonsils and loosen the stones. Water flossing: Use a water flosser on a low-pressure setting to gently dislodge stones with targeted streams of water. Coughing: Try forceful coughs to dislodge the stones. Be gentle and avoid excessive coughing to prevent irritation. Cotton swab (use with caution): Only do this if you can see the stone clearly and it's easily accessible. Use a clean, wet cotton swab to gently nudge the stone loose. Avoid pushing it deeper or scratching the tonsils.
