(LOS ANGELES) - Although one may think of psychedelic pharmaceuticals as being dangerous and detrimental, scientists have been conducting experiments and clinical trials on some of them and have obtained positive results when testing them for medical use. Research has shown that drugs such as MDMA (a type of methamphetamine), LSD and psilocybin ( magic mushrooms ) can be of benefit in treating severe pain, anxiety, depression and certain mental illnesses. Successful outcomes have been achieved when using psychedelics for treating conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder and addictions to alcohol and smoking, for example. In many cases, these treatments have benefited individuals who had unsuccessfully tried to treat their conditions by other methods.

Wind speed and rainfall can change the way these diseases are transmitted. Temperature and humidity can change a Filipino’s susceptibility to the coronavirus. Meanwhile, all of the above factors can change the survival rate of a virus in the environment.
Two Australian researchers Hannah McClymont and Wenbiao Hu from the Institute of Health and Biomedical Innovation at Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane reported their findings in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health last month.
