Antiviral Activity of Resveratrol against Human and Animal Viruses

Resveratrol has shown a high antiviral potential that can be explored in both human and animal viral infections. Its main antiviral mechanisms were seen to be elicited through inhibition of viral protein synthesis, inhibition of various trannoscription and signaling pathways, and inhibition of viral related gene expressions.

The Bombardment of Algiers, (painting by George Chambers Sr.) This was an attempt by 🇬🇧 Britain and the 🇳🇱 Netherlands to end the slavery practices of ☪️ Omar Agha, the Dey of Algiers. An Anglo-Dutch fleet under the command of Admiral Lord Exmouth bombarded ships and harbour defences of Algiers in 1816.
There was a continuing campaign by the European and American navies to suppress the Barbary pirates. The aim of this expedition, however, was to free Christian slaves and stop the enslavement of Europeans.

However, this practice did not end completely until the French conquest of Algeria.

Getting insufficient sleep, as well as having a sleep disorder or simply tossing and turning too much, is associated with a greater likelihood of getting a cold or respiratory infection.


Research shows that periods of prolonged stress, and the chronic inflammation that follows, can catalyze a cascade of disease-causing effects.

And in the context of respiratory illnesses like COVID-19, says Fagundes, the consequences can be deadly.

“When you have this over-activation of the inflammatory response in the lungs [during respiratory infections], it turns into pneumonia for some people”
