  SARS-CoV-2, also known as COVID-19, is a new type of virus under the family of viruses called Coronavirus. Hence giving it the name Novel (or new) COVID-19. Yes, Coronaviruses exist before the discovery of COVID 19. They are a family or a group of viruses that give symptoms such as colds and flu. Before we discuss the new discovered variant, let me explain how these viruses evolve or become a variant. Viruses, generally speaking, have a genetic strand of RNA. It is similar to DNA but not entirely the same. The way the virus replicates and propagate is by attaching itself to a viable cell that will eventually be infected. Upon attachment of the virus to a cell, it will use the genetic material of their target cell by injecting their RNA. A replication will then happen and a new copy of the virus is created. Sometimes, when viruses replicate, there is a chance that it is not the exact copy of that virus. Hence, a mutation happens. To put it in simpler terms, a factory that creates ...

Speaking before the Rotary Club of Makati Dasmarinas on January 28, 2015, Dr, Rebecca Singson of St. Luke's Medical Center in Global City introduced the new method of surgery which can be used in operating cancer and ob-gyn patients.  This new method uses ultra-modern technology which is the surgical robot.  The Da Vinci Si surgical robot is the answer to surgery woes because of the many benefits it gives to patients.  With robotic surgery, the patient would not have to stay in the hospital for a lengthy recovery period.  One example that Dr. Singson cited was a jogger who was up and was jogging again just 30 days after a hysterectomy by robotic operation.   In addition to  faster healing time, the low risk of infection and complication is a plus too.  The surgical robot has four arms to precisely and accurately move inside the human body without cutting it open.   The arms of the surgical robot moves inside the human body according to t...
