It can be difficult to recognize COVID-19 vaccine reactions in people who don’t communicate using words, explains Dr. Craig Escude, from Health Risk Screening. Learning common signs helps protect people with intellectual and developmental disabilities who don’t verbally communicate that something’s wrong.
According to the latest information, almost 52 million Americans, or 11.5% of the total U.S. population, have already received the COVID-19 vaccine.

Key Highlights
COVID-19 patients were randomized in a 1:1:1:1 allocation ratio to receive either 10 days of zinc gluconate (50 mg), ascorbic acid (8000 mg), both agents, or standard of care.
Treatment with high-dose zinc gluconate, ascorbic acid, or a combination of the 2 supplements did not significantly decrease the duration of symptoms compared with standard of care.
These findings suggest that treatment with zinc, ascorbic acid, or both does not affect SARS-CoV-2 symptoms.
