At Moonette, we are passionate about health, beauty and plants.

U.S. approves Roche drug for emergency use against severe COVID-19: U.S. health regulators have approved Roche’s arthritis drug Actemra for emergency use to treat hospitalized COVID-19 patients, giving an extra boost to a medicine that was already allowed to be administered on compassionate grounds.
The drug can be used to treat patients who are receiving systemic corticosteroids and require supplemental oxygen, non-invasive or invasive mechanical ventilation, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, the FDA said, adding studies showed Actemra helped reduce risk of death and speed recovery.

The ‘trap’ of post-vaccination antibody tests: unnecessary and not recommended by authorities: {Translation}
-With mass vaccination, numerous offers for serological tests have emerged in Spain for people to find out whether they produce antibodies in their blood after receiving this preventive treatment. The prices for these tests are around 20-50 euros.
-Various advertising campaigns try to convince potential consumers of the need for these tests. For example, one of the companies marketing these tests argues that: “With such novel vaccines to which different population groups will not respond homogeneously, it is appropriate to test the immunity that the vaccine can provide by means of a simple test”. Another hospital group recommends the post-vaccination antibody test because “it is the gold standard test to see if you have immunity to the virus after receiving the vaccine”.
-Beyond the debatability of the above messages, one advertising campaign has stood out from the rest: “Have you been well vaccinated? Check your antibody level with a post-vaccine IgG ELISA test”.
-This message was doubly irresponsible: on the one hand, it promoted fear or doubt among people, some of whom may wonder if they are properly vaccinated, and, on the other hand, it questioned the work of the nurses who are administering the vaccines. Even if the vaccines are administered flawlessly, a small percentage of the population may not generate an effective immune response due to their biological characteristics.
-Upon learning of this advertising campaign, the General Council of Nursing (CGE) made the following statements on Twitter: “This ad is wrong and unfortunate. No, you have not been wrongly vaccinated because nurses know how to do their job and are professionals. Don’t sow doubts about vaccination to sell your evidence, let alone put the spotlight on the act of vaccination or those who carry it out”. Subsequently, the CGE reported in a press release that on 16 June it had filed a complaint with the Ministries of Health and Consumer Affairs about this advertising.
-The company has replied to elDiario.es that “the last thing we intended was to offend anyone, least of all nurses”. Following the Council’s complaint, Life Length has apologised and “we have withdrawn the campaign and the posters”.
*Numerous reasons against it*
-Beyond the criticism of the nursing community, serological tests are unnecessary or even counterproductive to assess the immunity generated by vaccines in the general population. This is why many health institutions, such as the Ministry of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), do not recommend these tests after vaccination.
-There are many reasons why serological tests are not recommended: firstly, because immunity to COVID-19 depends mainly on the response of T-lymphocytes, which are not detected by these tests. Thus, a person may very well have robust immune protection with low or undetectable antibodies. In fact, it is normal for antibodies to drop in the blood over time and this does not mean that the person is not protected at all. On the other hand, having antibodies does not guarantee 100% protection against reinfection. Secondly, there is a risk of false negatives (especially among rapid tests), especially if the specific antibodies produced by vaccination (against protein S or Spike) are not correctly detected. In addition, many rapid tests on the market detect antibodies against other coronavirus proteins (such as N) and not against protein S, so these will always give negative results to vaccinees.
-Thirdly, it is not yet clear what levels of post-vaccination antibodies are considered protective. The FDA elaborates on this issue on its website: “While a positive antibody test result can be used to help identify persons who may have had a SARS-CoV-2 infection, more research is needed with respect to persons who have received the COVID-19 vaccine. Currently licensed antibody tests for SARS-CoV-2 have not been evaluated to determine the level of protection provided by the immune response to COVID-19 vaccination”.
-Finally, as explained in a previous article on immunity of the vaccinated, we must bear in mind that, when we reach herd immunity through vaccines, not only those immunised through vaccines will be protected, but also individuals who have not received them for various reasons and also those who have been vaccinated and have not produced an effective immune response. Ultimately, immunised individuals will act as protective “firewalls” against the latter.
-Ultimately, these antibody tests add more uncertainty and doubt than certainty and are therefore not recommended from a health point of view for the general population. They provide incomplete information, with a certain margin of error, which is of no practical use. In the same way that antibody tests are not carried out in the general population to see if the vaccine against polio, tetanus, hepatitis B or whooping cough have been effective (except in specific cases, such as immunosuppression or pregnancy), it does not make sense to do so for the vaccine against COVID-19, no matter how many marketing campaigns there are out there to try to convince consumers that these tests are recommended or necessary.

Microsoft announces Windows 10 end of support date: Win 10 will become fully obsolete 14 October, 2025. Source
How to check if your Windows 10 PC will get a free Windows 11 upgrade, and the end of any degree of privacy as we now know it: The free upgrade will begin to roll out ‘”this holiday and continuing into 2022″.
To check if your current Windows 10 PC meets the requirements to run Windows 11 and is eligible for the free upgrade to Windows 11, you’d need to download and run the PC Health Check app. Get it here, https://aka.ms/GetPCHealthCheckApp
Minimum System Requirements for Windows 11
Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with 2 or more cores on a compatible 64-bit processor or System on a Chip (SoC)
Graphics card: DirectX 12 compatible graphics / WDDM 2.x
Display: >9” with HD Resolution (720p)
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Storage: 64 GB or larger storage device
System firmware: UEFI, Secure Boot capable
TPM: Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0
Note that Windows 11 will only be a 64-bit release and won’t come in a 32-bit flavor.
NO MORE PRIVACY- Microsoft has also shared that Windows 11 will require consumers to have an internet connection to set up Windows 11 Home for the first time, along with a Microsoft Account. Microsoft has preferred to push the same in Windows 10 as well, but it was not mandatory and one could skip the sign-in and set up and use the PC with a local account. (The requirement to sign in with a MS account to setup new Win11 installs, due the the User Agreement you must accept, gives MS the right to scan all your data, keep a list of every website you visit and every search done, as well as capture every keystroke you make! No, a VPN will not protect against this. The data, linked to you and your computer by identifiers and the MS account, is sent to MS when your computer requests updates or otherwise calls home [telemetry functions]. Also, remember that MS is still planning on making Windows a subscription service of some sort in 2023. We don’t know how yet, but you can expect Windows to start asking you for money eventually. Personally, I expect this to arrive initially as an offer to let you continue using certain features that are free now, but in the future will only be available to subscribers. Just like they did with MS Office ten years ago. -Ed.)
