The State Duma commented on the hidden patrols of the traffic police on the roads

State Duma Deputy Svishchev: traffic police officers should not conduct covert patrols This was stated by State Duma Deputy Dmitry Svishchev. His words are quoted by URA.RU. “Thank God, the number of hidden patrols has decreased significantly, just due to the fact that cameras have appeared. But I am against hidden patrols, in general against everything hidden, “the parliamentarian commented. He noted that with the decrease in traffic police officers on the roads, the situation became calmer. According to Svishchev, traffic cameras, which were originally created to prevent accidents, have ceased to fulfill their function and turned into a serious business.

Ученые из США разработали средство от коронавируса в виде жвачки

Ученые Пенсильванского университета и нескольких других организаций разработали жевательную резинку, которая сможет ограничить распространение коронавируса. Генри Дэниелл, один из авторов разработки, пояснил, что вирус размножается в слюне. «Когда кто-то зараженный чихает, кашляет или разговаривает, частицы вируса выходят наружу и могут попасть на других людей. Жевательная резинка позволит нейтрализовать вирус в слюне — это даст нам простой потенциальный способ исключить этот способ распространения болезни», — рассказал ученый. В основе технологии лежит белок ACE2: как показали исследования других специалистов, инъекции этого вещества могут снижать вирусную нагрузку у пациентов с тяжелыми инфекциями. В организме человека рецепторы ACE2 также связывают спайковый белок коронавируса. Дэниелл и его коллеги вырастили ACE2 в лаборатории и соединили его с другим веществом, которое облегчает связывание. Созданная на основе двух этих компонентов жевательная резинка способна нейтрализовать коронавирус, блокируя рецептор ACE2 или связывая спайковый белок напрямую. Опыты на образцах слюны пациентов с коронавирусом показали, что препарат снижает уровень вирусной РНК в ней до практически необнаружимого. Теперь исследователи будут добиваться разрешения на проведение клинических испытаний жевательной резинки. В июне стало известно, что 48-й Центральный научно-исследовательский институт Минобороны начал разрабатывать
