Title : The SARS-CoV-2 virus pandemic has led to the development of a disease that should be called “COVID-19 – Post-COVID syndrome.”

Abstract:

There is no doubt that SARS-CoV-2 has become the most significant infectious agent of the last century. In terms of overall scale, the pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 is comparable to the “Spanish Flu” pandemic caused by the H1N1 influenza virus of 1918-1920. The number of direct victims from SARS-CoV-2 is currently significantly lower than that of the “Spanish Flu”, thanks to the high level of sanitation and medical care achieved over the last century compared to the early 20th century. However, it is still impossible to predict the indirect (or secondary) toll of this pandemic. The author of this message owns a series of publications for 2020-2024, in which this pandemic was called "COVID-19 - POSTCOVID SYNDROME". The editors of 9 major authoritative and specialized online magazines agreed with this name of the coronavirus pandemic. The author of this paper published a paper in the authoritative journal J. Virology Research & Reports (2024, v.5 (4):1-10) titled: "COVID-19-POSTCOVID SYNDROME": HARD LESSONS. By January 2026, nearly two years after the end of the novel coronavirus pandemic, 432,537 articles on the pandemic had been published and available online. Almost all of the papers were devoted to the pathogenesis of the disease, and only a small portion was related to its treatment. And this is perhaps the main conclusion: the medical community still does not know how to get out of this situation. Today, young people aged 25 to 45 who have experienced this disease die two to three times from stroke and acute myocardial infarction. The aforementioned article outlines the most relevant lessons of the pandemic — 10 of them. Those interested can read the materials in this article and find a detailed analysis of all 10 lessons. Due to space limitations, I will only focus on lesson — "On the Treatment of “POSTCOVID SYNDROME." We offer an alternative method – "SYSTEM METHOD OF LEECHING” (SML) (Патент РФ №2787525). The proposed method is based on 30 years of experience in the use of SML in elderly people with multiple organ pathology and children treated at the Academy of Hirudotherapy in St. - Petersburg. Our experience in the treatment of "POSTCOVID SYNDROME" in the period 2020-2023 has shown the high effectiveness of SML. In the author's article (Krashenyuk A.I. Pandemic "COVID-19 – POSTCOVID SYNDROME": A System Method of Leeching is a New and Effective Treatment. Journal of Virology Research & Reports, 2023, volume 4(2):1-12.) This problem is being discussed. And this topic is described in even more detail in the author's recently published book "COVID-19 - POSTCOVID SYNDROME". Ed. "ASTERION". SPb, 220p.(20.09.2023). This book presents treatment technology for the acute phase of (“COVID-19”) and the chronic phase of the disease ("POSTCOVID SYNDROME") — two phases of the same disease! The author of these theses was in the Republic of Uzbekistan from June 30 to July 8, 2021, providing consulting services to doctors in the “Red Zone” at the 2,000-bed “Zangiota-2” Hospital. The treatment utilized the "System Leech Therapy," which reduced the severity of complications and patient mortality. The medicinal leech contains a full range of biologically active components in its salivary gland secretions, which suppress all mechanisms of coronavirus pathogenesis, including antiviral and antimicrobial effects. This is especially important when a physician observed a patient with a combination of viral and microbial agents. In this case, the use of synthetic antibiotics, which are known to suppress the immune system, increased viral activity and led to a worsening of the disease. Given that the incidence of illness in children during the pandemic was approximately 10 times lower than in adults, we draw attention to a new, as yet unexplored aspect of immunity, which we call the "Biophysical Aspect of Immunity," related to the structure of the human aquatic system. This is likely different in children and adults.

Biography:

Krashenyuk A.I. Graduated from the 1st Pavlov Medical Institute in 1971 in Leningrad, and postgraduate studies in biochemistry at the same institute in 1974 from Professor V.I. Rosengart. In 1974 he received the degree of Candidate of Medical Sciences. From 1974 to 1985 he worked as a senior researcher and head of the laboratory of biophysical methods of research at the Pasteur Institute in Leningrad. He was engaged in the development of vaccines against measles, mumps, influenza, tick-borne encephalitis. From 1985 to 1992 he headed the laboratory of live influenza vaccines and biophysical methods of research . Created the world first purified live influenza vaccine, which was vaccinated 4.5 million people without post-vaccination complications. In 1995 he received the degree of Doctor of Medical Sciences from the Institute of Influenza of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences (RAMS). One of the creators of space biotechnology for the production of highly purified viral proteins in microgravity. In 1996 and to the present time the creator of the world first department and Academy of Hirudotherapy. Honorary Scientist of Europe, Academician of the European Academy of Natural Sciences (Germany), Grand Doctor in Biology and Medicine (Oxford), Full Professor of Oxford. For a series of works in the field of virology in 2023 the author was awarded the diploma "Pasteur-Professor" of the European Academy of Natural Sciences (Germany),
