Doctors warn about the dangers of Christmas toys

Therapist Asanov: toxic substances in Christmas toys cause chemical poisoning When choosing them, you need to study the composition of the product, the interviewed doctors told RIA Novosti. Physician-therapist Timur Asanov said that manufacturers of Christmas tree decorations use toxic substances: their products pass according to GOST if the “poisons” do not exceed the established norm … However, this situation does not take into account the danger of accumulation of such substances in the human body. From this point of view, plastic toys are the most toxic. Plastic products made from low-quality raw materials often lead to the release of toxic substances, which threatens poisoning and allergic reactions, the specialist warned. “After all, few people admit the idea that a cute snowman, sprinkled with sparkles, or a singing snowflake, wishing all the best in the New Year, can poison,” he stressed. “Plastic decoration should not smell harsh – such a

Вирусологи усомнились в «тюнинге» коронавируса

Директор Института экономики здравоохранения НИУ ВШЭ Лариса Попович в беседе с РБК заявила, что идея о «тюнинге» вируса — лишь конспирологическая теория, и она ничем не подтверждена. «У вируса очевидное филогенетическое древо изменений. Достаточно посмотреть на то, как и в каких локусах он мутирует, и становится ясно, что все происходит естественным путем. На искусственное происхождение не указывает ничего. И нет указаний на “компромиссный вариант”, о котором говорит сотрудник ФМБА, — что происхождение естественное, а потом вирус подрихтовали», — уточнила она. Также специалист отметила, что COVID-19 мутирует медленнее, чем вирус гриппа, но с ним могут произойти дальнейшие изменения. С этим мнением согласен инфекционист, доктор медицинских наук Николай Малышев. Комментируя высказывание Никифорова, он отметил, что потенциально «тюнинг» вируса возможен, но коронавирусная инфекция имеет целиком природное происхождение. «COVID-19 пришел из Азии, Китая — крайне благоприятных мест для появления различных вирусов. Что касается наличия возможности “внесения изменений”, на эту тему был ряд публикаций. Но природа удивительно разнообразна и способна придумать то, до чего никогда не додумается человек», — пояснил Малышев. Природа вполне может конструировать подобные вирусы, а способствует их появлению и развитию, по словам эксперта, среда с благоприятными для вируса температурой,
