Professor Jeanne-Pierre Changeux, Professor of Neuroscience at the Pasteur Institute, who first identified and purified the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, posed the hypothesis soon after the onset of the Pandemic in April 2020 in “A nicotinic hypothesis for Covid-19 with preventive and therapeutic implications” (i). This was followed by further peer-reviewed studies such as “A potential interaction

Streptococcus A, otherwise known as Strep A, is a common bacterium found in the throat and on the skin. It can cause several
