Agree but while John is educating us and we are sharing knowledge HM Government under the leadership of BJ are being DIM and sub reactive. Bollocks to Cheltenham Festival, the 1000 or so spare critical care beds on the NHS will soon fill with the vulnerable of all ages. When the beds run out its palliative care (euthanasia in all but name).
I have never commented on youtube in the 8 or so years l have used it but l have to say l appreciate what you are doing, you are making such a big difference. I have been nursing for 26 years in the NHS. You make me proud to be a part of the same profession.
That moves me to tears, we are trying to be brave, with a dawning realisation (as of 16 months to 2 years) that the government are not here to help the population of either the UK or the USA....I feel so sorry for the National Health systems, the transport, sewage workers, prisons, factories etc etc.. The older people and the sick...homeless and poor....
After this pandemic is gone I really reeeallllyyy want to see the good doctor decorated because of the honesty, education and sincerity that he offers every day! Thank you Dr. John!
@McDonalds Farmer I have no clue what is the correct word for it but I believe you got what I meant. English is not my native language ;). Sorry for a lack in vocabulary.
Already knew all this but I understand it's very important informations for everyone to have during such difficult times. He's explaining it all very well, simple and to the point.
Jonathan Helmer all of the videos that dr. Campbell has provided us with are excellent in their own right. Straight to the point, evidence based and methodical explained. I’ve been posting his links for his TH-cam channel all over social media.
The human body is nothing short of amazing! It does so many things to produce 1 outcome without causing any harm. Brilliant. I've got to say, John, you are an absolute treasure.

Dr. Campbell is one of the greats in his profession, he is educating through the growing panic...we only fear what we don’t understand...Dr. Campbell understands that through education we can survive this virus and he has been extremely honest and forthright with his opinions....I feel much better each time I watch his videos. Thank you Dr. Campbell, you are truly wonderful.
Read up on the 32yo Physician Assistant working in Brooklyn NYC living in New Jersey. Went to 42nd St Time Sq Westin Hotel. Now has THE Coronavirus not doing well. You need real cases not sugar coated " they all recovered" .
This gentleman is really a great teacher I hope the Education institutions in UK really give him a full support to help to produce new generation of medical personnel I’m not a medical professional but really I find how he explain things is very useful
I had to laugh at myself when I followed Dr. Campbell's instructions and found my pulse...I was so dang thrilled and excited to have done it. =D Love this educational information.
With modern doctors limited visitations it would take decades to get all this information from my doctor given in a TH-cam video now and it could save my life how cool is that?
I have always recommended John and his videos to anyone studying anatomy and physiology- paramedics, nurses, doctors, therapists, anyone that needs a good clear understanding. His videos on the heart and ECG’s are very clear and easy to pick up even for beginners. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone with any interest. He has numerous videos on topics of physiology and seriously is the best educator out there.
I was a medic on a wild fire crew.. Or an EMT-B... Wow this was like sitting in on some the classes i had to take... VERY VERY GREAT of you to do this... PAY ATTENTION FOLKS! This is VERY valuable information!
Dr. Campbell, you are amazing! You have an astounding knack to explain complex medical terms in a way that the average person can understand. My family and I look forward to your daily videos. Thank you for all you do!
I am going to be taking a nurse re-entry course in the US soon after taking 5 years off to pursue other interests. I am going to watch all of your videos for a refresher because you are a great instructor, Sir! And I will donate to your cause. Thank you again, Dr. John!
Thank you so much for your videos, Dr. Campbell. You are helping to educate so many people and for that we can’t thank you enough. Please take care ☮️💜
Dr. Campbell, thank you for all the times put in your daily video’s. You have a way to explained in details that make it easier for us non clinical peoples to understand. I appreciate all the efforts. Thank you!

For those interested in the nitty-gritty of the mechanisms that envoke a fever, et voila. It's a tad technically astute but provides the explanation none the less.
Fever, or pyrexia, is an elevation in body temperature caused by a cytokine-induced upward displacement of the set point of the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center (in the brain). The purpose of fever isn't completely understood, but small elevations in body temperature appear to enhance immune function and inhibit pathogen growth. Fever can be caused by various microorganisms and substances collectively called pyrogens. Many proteins, breakdown products of proteins, and certain other substances, including lipopolysaccharide toxins released from bacterial cell membranes, can cause the set point of the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center to increase. Some pyrogens can act directly and immediately on the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center. Other pyrogens act indirectly and take longer to produce their effect. Exogenous pyrogens induce host cells, such as leukocytes and macrophages, to release fever-producing mediators called endogenous pyrogens (for example, interleukin-1). The phagocytosis of bacteria and breakdown products of bacteria present in the blood lead to the release of endogenous pyrogens into the circulation. These endogenous pyrogens are thought to increase the set point of the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center through the action of prostaglandin E2. In response to the sudden increase in set point, the hypothalamus initiates heat production behaviors (shivering and vasoconstriction) that raise the core body temperature to the new set point, establishing fever. A patient's signs and symptoms depend on which stage of fever they're in. However, not all patients proceed through the four stages described below: Fever may develop gradually, without chills or shivering, or the patient may not sweat. *Prodromal stage* . The patient will have nonspecific symptoms such as mild headache, fatigue, general malaise, and fleeting aches and pains. *Second stage or chill* . The patient will feel chilled and develop generalized shaking despite his rising temperature. Vasoconstriction and piloerection precede the onset of shivering. The patient's skin will be pale and covered with gooseflesh. He may put on more clothes or curl up in a position to conserve body heat. Pyrogens typically enter the bloodstream during this stage, so blood samples for culturing are usually drawn during the first signs of a chill. When the shivering has caused the body temperature to reach the new set point, the shivering stops and the patient again feels warm. *Third stage or flush* . Cutaneous vasodilation leads to the skin becoming warm and flushed. Now the patient is too hot. *Defervescence* . This stage is characterized by sweating. The fever breaks, and the patient's body temperature returns to normal. The pattern of a fever can give you information about the fever's cause. *In an intermittent fever* , the patient's temperature returns to normal at least once every 24 hours. This type of fever is associated with Gram-negative or Gram-positive sepsis, abscesses, and infective endocarditis. *In a remittent fever* , the patient's temperature doesn't return to normal, although it varies a few degrees in either direction. Remittent fevers are associated with viral upper respiratory tract, legionella, and mycoplasma infections. *In a sustained or continuous fever* , the patient's temperature remains above normal with minimal variations (usually less than 1° F or 0.55° C). These fevers may be caused by drugs. *A recurrent or relapsing fever* consists of one or more episodes of fever, each as long as several days, with one or more days of normal temperature between episodes. Relapsing fevers can be caused by various infectious diseases, including fungal. A second clue to the cause of the fever is the relation of the patient's heart rate to the level of temperature elevation. Normally, a 1° F increase in temperature produces a 10-beat/minute increase in heart rate, and a 1° C increase in temperature produces a 15-beat/minute increase in heart rate. I Common signs and symptoms of fever worsen if the patient's temperature rises rapidly or if it exceeds 103.1° F (39.5° C). Tachypnea and tachycardia develop, and the patient becomes dehydrated because of sweating and vapor losses from the increased respiratory rate. Many manifestations of fever are related to the increased metabolic rate, increased need for oxygen, and use of body proteins as an energy source. During fever, the body switches from using glucose to metabolism based on protein and fat breakdown. Prolonged fever causes breakdown of endogenous fat stores. If fat breakdown is rapid, the patient may develop metabolic acidosis. Source: Essentials of Pathophysiology: Concepts of Altered Health States, CM Porth, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2004.
So many good videos here. I am sitting here in California monitoring my "vitals" and watching for symptoms after having been coughed on by a man who jumped in front of me while I was buying groceries, even though the store had clear "social separation" marks on the floor. It all happened so fast I couldn't protect myself. I will be using your guide and, as advised by my doctor, reporting any symptoms or changes in vitals to her. Hopefully, i can be tested soon, but for now, I am self-isolated at home. This video amplifies and reinforces what she told me. Thank you!
I'm someone who suffers with serious health anxiety but generally feel better when I know what to expect and what to look out for, this has really helped me feel a little calmer. Thank you!
Your medical education services are so appreciated. It really helps to alleviate anxieties and to help everyone take inentional, educated measures today and combat the virus as a community. Great Job Dr. Campbell 🙋
Wow, I am almost a fully educated nurse now having watched this. Okay maybe not, but I have a few more clues on what to look for now. Thank you for being my rock of reason and facts-only, in this Corona crisis .
I am a biomedical sciences / epidemiological sciences student, and I study molecular biology and viral pathways, but not actual symptoms of the disease. Your videos are incredibly interesting to me as I don’t actually study symptoms of diseases etc. Thanks Dr. Campbell! You're definitely THE BEST source of coronavirus updates and general info about medicine on the whole internet!
Thank you Dr Campbell for all you're doing! From a medically vunerable household here in the UK your videos are very much appreciated. Please look after yourself
Dr. Campbell this topic is very useful for me, i thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’ve had a breast cancer almost 3 years ago, my immune system is always fluctuated like mad. I will make sure I remember this lesson forever, my white cell was below 4K last Monday so my body condition is very sensitive at the moment. This subject is absolutely useful for me, you’re like my guardian angel in terms of health issue. I’m not saying my oncologist is not brilliant but she doesn’t have hour to spend time with the patients (1/2 max) yes my oncologist explained a lot but not this details. Once again, thank you so very much Doctor especially when my immune system right now is rather below the border line. God bless you Doctor and stay safe & healthy everyone! 🙏❤️
Hello John. I want to thank you so much for your dedicated mission to inform us about the virus. I am so grateful for all your efforts. I know how much time you have put into this projekt. You are so precious for so many of us. You have to think of your health too. You need to take brakes also. Find time to drink tea in the sunshine and take a walk in the forest. You work too hard now i think. You push yourself too much. You need pauses and have freetime also. You have given us so much. We Will be allright now. You need to take care of yourself too. You can slow down your tempo. Right now you are racing. I totally understand your frustration and the feeling of hopelessness you are feeling. I feel the same. I wish that english goverment could listen to you. Cause you have The information and knowledge. Cause you have also The solution. I really understand your frustration. Take care. Greetings from Sweden.
Thank-you John for all your tireless hard work, I've been following your series of COVID-19 videos from here in Australia since early days and they've been super informative and authoritative. I hope you can take some pride in the fact that you've been an amazing help to many, many people around the world, and I think have saved many, many lives. Thank-you.
As a teacher in the US, I enjoy your simple, yet thorough pedagogy! Most people don't appreciate the deep degree of knowledge necessary to present complicated subjects in a straightforward manner. Stay healthy Dr. Campbell!
I live here in the Midwest, USA. You mentioned the cost of being tested is a problem here. The Government just announced, the test will be free of charge. They just allocated $8.5 Billion to fight this Corona virus.
Rudy Alan but apparently they require loads of other tests first which need to be paid for before they get the coronavirus....so many won’t be able to pay for this
At this point, USA announced it has tested less than 5,000. What was announced was that Anyone that wants testing can get it. That is not what is going down. Red tape, confusion and Dr.‘s power tripping on the allowing orders or no orders is what I’ve heard about.
Only problem is they will test you for every germ out there first, which is costly. Mercy hospital administrator heard saying "we are in the business of paying customers."
Rudy Alan Now ALL treatment for the virus will be covered. I knew they would do that. But everyone wants to be negative and complain about EVERYTHING!!! It’s ALL covered now, but people will still lie.
Make up a better one that they can't possibly disprove. You interacted with someone from the worst affected regions at the grocery store. They even had a cough but you didn't think anything of it at the time.
Recently went to ER. They asked if I traveled outside the country in the last 14 days, I said no. They asked if I had close contact with an Asian community, I said I ate an egg roll a few days ago. They wouldn't test me.
Brilliant thanks John, this is really useful. I am thinking about applying for the physician associate course here in the UK and your tutorials are so useful
Best teacher 👨🏫, I never forget u, bcz ur the one who understand me anterior and posterior pituitary and it’s types , I think I never forgot in my life , I never understood my teacher at that time ❤️🥰😍 I’m medical student 5th year now , pray for me one year left to graduate 👩🎓 Inshaa alah
How does fasting help with viral infections? First off it lowers your blood sugar and insulin, this allows white blood cells to move more freely throughout the body and do their job. Ideal blood sugar is around 80. Second it shuts down your ribosomes, which are the factories in your cells used to produce proteins. This is what a virus needs to reproduce and it can't reproduce without them. Third, it stimulates the AMPK complex and activates autophagy. Autophagy (literally self eating) will causes cells to recycle foreign matter such as viruses. AMPK does many helpful things in the body including activating the body's antioxidant defenses. Fasting also puts you into deep ketosis, which virtually eliminates inflammation in the body. This can offset the life threatening symptoms of viral pneumonia which effectively kills you through inflammation. This also creates BHB ketones in your body, which help your immune system. When you fast, your T and B cells retreat to the bone marrow and are renewed at a genetic level, each cell having all its DNA repaired. This supercharges your immune system and makes your cells young again. On top of all this, fasting encourages the direct apoptosis (death) of infected cells, shortcutting the typically length process of killing them off through macrophages. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autophagy en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMP-activated_protein_kinase en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribosome en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketosis en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokine_storm en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sepsis repository.upenn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1537&context=edissertations www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(19)30849-9 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25686106 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24905167 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10859646
I find your suggestion for people to fast to people not used to it quite dangerous. Some might call it harmful. This is not something you can simply eyeball as people obviously will try after your post. So please stop.
Love your videos Dr. John...You give us the knowledge with a great bedside manner...There are others out there that are giving us the "straight dope" but your tone is very calming...Thank you for your service!
Dr John thanks for your information effort, from the liveliest edge of my heart. I'm Italian , fluent in English and I wanted to congratulate your comprehensible and "easy to get" language briefings. These days I'm home recovering from a cardio-vascular surgery. Would you like me to translate your vids in Italian? I think subtitles in any language could reach the most people in a proactive way.
Your a great man John. Greatly appreciated. Thank you Sir for your valuable time to teach those if us that haven't a clue on our own health. Much love from Oklahoma and the States.
Order one of blood oxygen and pulse rate meters from Amazon or local pharmacy. They're about $20US. I've started a spreadsheet and record my vitals every morning following John's example.
Thank you Dr. Campbell! You have been so instrumental in keeping my family informed and educated on the Covid19 outbreak! I live in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Stay healthy and God Bless you!
Just a school teacher looking for sound information. Found it with you. My state seems to be what I can only describe as "ignoring" how serious this is. Thank you Doc . Much appreciated
Celtic Whisper what about buying breathing machines (i don’t even know what I would invest in or how much it would cost but if it saves someone’s life ?
I only found your very beneficial video only a few days ago. I look you up every day now to see your latest one. You make the medical words more far more practical, easier and interesting for everyone that follow your videos. I found the one on vitamin D very interesting as there is a lot of misleading stuff on social media regarding vitamins. I took your advise and started the vitamin D since your video. I appreciate your analysis on the coronavirus and your insight into it. You put your medical words into plain language. You are one of the best things that ever came on social media. I'm so glad I found you on social media. Keep up the good work, and I do hope you will enlighten me and everyone with knowledge for years to come Even when the virus is finally gone with the help of God you will continue to do the video on various different medical topics. Here is one of your great admirers. Ann Roscommon Ireland
In Wuhan, ICU capacity was increased by over 1,000 beds in two weeks by building a new hospital, but this is not possible in the UK. Managing an ICU patient with Covid-19 is more complex than normal ICU care. Patients must be individually isolated. All staff must wear “personal protective equipment” (PPE), which consists of, as a minimum, a tight-fitting face mask, an extra gown, gloves, goggles and visor. PPE must be put on and taken off before and after patient contact and checked by a “buddy” colleague. Despite this scrupulous process in China two in every five early infections were acquired in hospital and two-thirds of these were healthcare workers, a significant number of whom then died.
I am a Registered Nurse in the US and have been an avid fan of D. Campbell for a long time. I wish we had a Dr. Campbell in our country. In all my years of education and experience as a nurse I have never had a professor explain such complex biological systems as well and thoroughly as Dr. Campbell. He not only teaches us to care for patients, as is so necessary during this pandemic, but he explains the body's system's reaction to illness in terms a layman can understand. Well done. Well done, to use a British term. In the states I would use "awesome." He should be recognized as the voice of reason and medicine. My hero. Lois HeuerRNMS
I would be interested In hearing your opinion on the preponderance of healthcare practitioners wearing their uniform to and from work (hospitals). I’m surprised this hasn’t been addressed yet. It is ubiquitous in the UK, and I’d imagine the scope for infection is huge!
I have often thought about that. When i was a cadet nurse in the 60s no way were you allowed to wear your uniform after your work finished. You had to change and get into your normal stuff and your tunic and apron went to the laundry. Now days you see medical staff in cafes, on public transport, in pubs, outside hospital grounds smoking etc and they are taking all those germs into the hospital.
Based on that info its time the Government got their act together. We need temporary hospitals set up in every town and village. We need training and equipment and volunteers quickly.
If I calmly explain to people thst we need to be proactive rather than reactive, I am met with responses that I am freaking out over nothing or that this virus has been around for years. I am visiting family in the USA and the restaurants are heaving. People are on waiting lists. No one is showing any signs of proactive behavior. No one wants to be considered weird by wearing a mask.
@@superalfie1888 I think I have figured out the reasoning going on in Europe and the UK: On one side you want to slow the spread not to overwhelm the hospitals, but on the other hand, you don't want it to spread too slowly either, because that means that other countries will recover before you, when herd imunity become prevalent and the epidemic ends. As long as the spread matches the neighbouring countries, you won't lose business, as some of the early countries start to recover and attract customers again. I also think this is the reasoning behind the Laissez faire approach in the US. The choice is between letting it run as fast as possible without too many deaths, but be finished with it early, otherwise, the economic impact will be that much more severe and take years to recover from, as your customers have found other suppliers. So somwhere in a dimly lit government office, there are spreadsheets on CFR vs. economy recovery time! In that respect, China is ahead; They got it as the earliest possible date, and they did everything imaginable to shorten the epedemic, so they might come out on top before the rest of the world? Talk about turning a disaster into profit! Please observe, this is also a kind of an investment advice, for anyone interested in buying the bottom. However there is still the caveat about reinfection, and not even China knows if they get a breather before the next wave hits, or if it will be benign enough to keep the factories running through it, but most certainly, the Chinese have calculated how large a percentage needs to be immune to keep the factories running.
We wish to convey a strong message: Get ready!” The doctors said Italian hospital has recorded a “very high” number of intensive care patients who had been admitted to hospital “almost entirely” for severe lung failure triggered by the virus, who had required ventilators in order to breathe. Hospitals in the UK and across Europe as a whole needed to get ready for a big increase in admissions, the experts said, stressing the importance of having equipment to protect staff.
I agree , Italian hospitals are fathoming a "collapse amount" of persons with severe form of infection , but the intensive measures are only for who's - as a matter of fact - risking life. Other countries should increase intensive care places in advance, before the spread surpasses a thousand persons in danger.
The UK and USA hospitals by not stopping everything will completely fail. Their ICUs are filled up on a good day. Trump is stopping travel to Europe for 30 days. BRAVO
Thank you so much Dr. Campbell again for all your posts! Makes me more confident how to care about myself, my family and friends, neighbors and people outside the house. Take care! Greetings from Niedersachen in Germany.
These self help videos by Dr C are very welcome, especially considering the possibility of medical services being overwhelmed in the future, I wonder if any self help options for pneumonia were possible in the old days before health services.
Great video, as usual - honestly most of this is stuff I think we should teach teenagers before they graduate secondary school, along with how to deal with taxes. Imagine how much less scary illness is when you understand what's going on, why it's happening, and when it's normal vs not - it'd probably reduce the number of "unnecessary" doctor's visits, too (medically unnecessary, that is, though obviously they're perceived as necessary to the patient who's ill and doesn't know what to do). A thermometer and a pulse oximeter should be standard equipment in every household. I wouldn't mind having a blood pressure cuff either tbh. If I don't need to go to the doctor for it, I'd rather not.
These vids are extremely important as our Health Care System has totally failed us, and we need to know how to save our families lives, because no one else else is going to do it. Thank You, John!!!
John your voice calms me and reassured me....I have PTSD and I’m trying to not panic about all of this.I wish they monetized you...I fall asleep to you when I can sleep
I am in the Northeast USA and it has been fascinating watching how things are worked out at a more local level. I think that is how it will work within the states. Today, many colleges decided to have the students take classes online for this month. Some of the elementary schools used their snow days to disinfect over the next few days. They canceled St Patrick’s parade in most states around here. It is all being handled by local authorities but it is happening.
I came here from the first CoViD-19 and now have watched all these..... I feel so much more clued up about all this now... Thanks Dr. John, you absolute legend!
Thank you Dr. John. This is valuable information for me to share to my loved ones that's simple to understand and easy to conduct. As always, I appreciate your hard work and I hope you will be in good health through this pandemic
Thank you for your informative videos. To many doctors don't take the time to explain details. It's a club secret for many. It is helpful for patients to understand their illnesses. Self care is essential in healing. You are greatly appreciated.
I wouldn’t be surprised if some governments of the world have weighed everything up, health vs money. As it’s mainly older & vulnerable people that are the worst affected, have they calculated that that’s the price to they’re willing pay, with it also saving them on pension pay outs?
I notice in the news it’ll say somebody died of the virus & then mention they had an underlying illness. Underlying illness? that’s basically a lot of older people. Is the statement supposed to be some sort of cop out for the government being slow about stopping flights weeks ago etc? A lot of people live for decades with manageable illnesses, are they trying to imply that because they had an underlying illness, it’s not that bad?

I was a medic on a wild fire crew.. Or an EMT-B... Wow this was like sitting in on some the classes i had to take... VERY VERY GREAT of you to do this... PAY ATTENTION FOLKS! This is VERY valuable information!
Dr. Campbell, you are amazing! You have an astounding knack to explain complex medical terms in a way that the average person can understand. My family and I look forward to your daily videos. Thank you for all you do!
I am going to be taking a nurse re-entry course in the US soon after taking 5 years off to pursue other interests. I am going to watch all of your videos for a refresher because you are a great instructor, Sir! And I will donate to your cause. Thank you again, Dr. John!
Thank you so much for your videos, Dr. Campbell. You are helping to educate so many people and for that we can’t thank you enough. Please take care ☮️💜
Dr. Campbell, thank you for all the times put in your daily video’s. You have a way to explained in details that make it easier for us non clinical peoples to understand. I appreciate all the efforts. Thank you!
For those interested in the nitty-gritty of the mechanisms that envoke a fever, et voila. It's a tad technically astute but provides the explanation none the less.
Fever, or pyrexia, is an elevation in body temperature caused by a cytokine-induced upward displacement of the set point of the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center (in the brain). The purpose of fever isn't completely understood, but small elevations in body temperature appear to enhance immune function and inhibit pathogen growth.
Fever can be caused by various microorganisms and substances collectively called pyrogens. Many proteins, breakdown products of proteins, and certain other substances, including lipopolysaccharide toxins released from bacterial cell membranes, can cause the set point of the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center to increase. Some pyrogens can act directly and immediately on the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center. Other pyrogens act indirectly and take longer to produce their effect.
Exogenous pyrogens induce host cells, such as leukocytes and macrophages, to release fever-producing mediators called endogenous pyrogens (for example, interleukin-1). The phagocytosis of bacteria and breakdown products of bacteria present in the blood lead to the release of endogenous pyrogens into the circulation. These endogenous pyrogens are thought to increase the set point of the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center through the action of prostaglandin E2. In response to the sudden increase in set point, the hypothalamus initiates heat production behaviors (shivering and vasoconstriction) that raise the core body temperature to the new set point, establishing fever.
A patient's signs and symptoms depend on which stage of fever they're in. However, not all patients proceed through the four stages described below: Fever may develop gradually, without chills or shivering, or the patient may not sweat.
*Prodromal stage* . The patient will have nonspecific symptoms such as mild headache, fatigue, general malaise, and fleeting aches and pains.
*Second stage or chill* . The patient will feel chilled and develop generalized shaking despite his rising temperature. Vasoconstriction and piloerection precede the onset of shivering. The patient's skin will be pale and covered with gooseflesh. He may put on more clothes or curl up in a position to conserve body heat. Pyrogens typically enter the bloodstream during this stage, so blood samples for culturing are usually drawn during the first signs of a chill. When the shivering has caused the body temperature to reach the new set point, the shivering stops and the patient again feels warm.
*Third stage or flush* . Cutaneous vasodilation leads to the skin becoming warm and flushed. Now the patient is too hot.
*Defervescence* . This stage is characterized by sweating. The fever breaks, and the patient's body temperature returns to normal.
The pattern of a fever can give you information about the fever's cause.
*In an intermittent fever* , the patient's temperature returns to normal at least once every 24 hours. This type of fever is associated with Gram-negative or Gram-positive sepsis, abscesses, and infective endocarditis.
*In a remittent fever* , the patient's temperature doesn't return to normal, although it varies a few degrees in either direction. Remittent fevers are associated with viral upper respiratory tract, legionella, and mycoplasma infections.
*In a sustained or continuous fever* , the patient's temperature remains above normal with minimal variations (usually less than 1° F or 0.55° C). These fevers may be caused by drugs.
*A recurrent or relapsing fever* consists of one or more episodes of fever, each as long as several days, with one or more days of normal temperature between episodes. Relapsing fevers can be caused by various infectious diseases, including fungal.
A second clue to the cause of the fever is the relation of the patient's heart rate to the level of temperature elevation. Normally, a 1° F increase in temperature produces a 10-beat/minute increase in heart rate, and a 1° C increase in temperature produces a 15-beat/minute increase in heart rate. I
Common signs and symptoms of fever worsen if the patient's temperature rises rapidly or if it exceeds 103.1° F (39.5° C). Tachypnea and tachycardia develop, and the patient becomes dehydrated because of sweating and vapor losses from the increased respiratory rate.
Many manifestations of fever are related to the increased metabolic rate, increased need for oxygen, and use of body proteins as an energy source. During fever, the body switches from using glucose to metabolism based on protein and fat breakdown. Prolonged fever causes breakdown of endogenous fat stores. If fat breakdown is rapid, the patient may develop metabolic acidosis.

Wow! Now really feel sick.
Andrea Boggan thank you so much for sharing this info - it is very valuable I would not have known how to find it for myself
I know I speak for many when I say THANK YOU Dr . Campbell.
So many good videos here. I am sitting here in California monitoring my "vitals" and watching for symptoms after having been coughed on by a man who jumped in front of me while I was buying groceries, even though the store had clear "social separation" marks on the floor. It all happened so fast I couldn't protect myself. I will be using your guide and, as advised by my doctor, reporting any symptoms or changes in vitals to her. Hopefully, i can be tested soon, but for now, I am self-isolated at home. This video amplifies and reinforces what she told me. Thank you!
I'm someone who suffers with serious health anxiety but generally feel better when I know what to expect and what to look out for, this has really helped me feel a little calmer. Thank you!
Your medical education services are so appreciated. It really helps to alleviate anxieties and to help everyone take inentional, educated measures today and combat the virus as a community.
Great Job Dr. Campbell 🙋
I've become addicted to you, Dr. John.

Thank you so much for going this John... my elderly mom and I have learned so much!💕👍
Wow, I am almost a fully educated nurse now having watched this. Okay maybe not, but I have a few more clues on what to look for now. Thank you for being my rock of reason and facts-only, in this Corona crisis .
You are not just an asset for the UK but an asset to mankind. Thank you for your informative updates, council, and analysis (OH, USA).
I am a biomedical sciences / epidemiological sciences student, and I study molecular biology and viral pathways, but not actual symptoms of the disease. Your videos are incredibly interesting to me as I don’t actually study symptoms of diseases etc.
Thanks Dr. Campbell!

One of the most valuable channels on this site right now. Thank you so much for your output, Dr John.
Dr. Campbell this topic is very useful for me, i thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’ve had a breast cancer almost 3 years ago, my immune system is always fluctuated like mad. I will make sure I remember this lesson forever, my white cell was below 4K last Monday so my body condition is very sensitive at the moment. This subject is absolutely useful for me, you’re like my guardian angel in terms of health issue. I’m not saying my oncologist is not brilliant but she doesn’t have hour to spend time with the patients (1/2 max) yes my oncologist explained a lot but not this details. Once again, thank you so very much Doctor especially when my immune system right now is rather below the border line. God bless you Doctor and stay safe & healthy everyone! 🙏❤️
Thank you so much for the thorough lessons Dr. Campbell. They are so valuable
Hello John. I want to thank you so much for your dedicated mission to inform us about the virus. I am so grateful for all your efforts. I know how much time you have put into this projekt. You are so precious for so many of us.
You have to think of your health too. You need to take brakes also. Find time to drink tea in the sunshine and take a walk in the forest. You work too hard now i think. You push yourself too much. You need pauses and have freetime also. You have given us so much. We Will be allright now. You need to take care of yourself too. You can slow down your tempo. Right now you are racing.
I totally understand your frustration and the feeling of hopelessness you are feeling. I feel the same. I wish that english goverment could listen to you. Cause you have The information and knowledge. Cause you have also The solution. I really understand your frustration.
Take care.
Greetings from Sweden.
@McDonalds Farmer Thank you. We must be careful with our John and give him time to pause. Take care.
Thank-you John for all your tireless hard work, I've been following your series of COVID-19 videos from here in Australia since early days and they've been super informative and authoritative. I hope you can take some pride in the fact that you've been an amazing help to many, many people around the world, and I think have saved many, many lives. Thank-you.
Yes! Twice in a day. What a treat. Thank you!
As a teacher in the US, I enjoy your simple, yet thorough pedagogy! Most people don't appreciate the deep degree of knowledge necessary to present complicated subjects in a straightforward manner. Stay healthy Dr. Campbell!
Sterling effort medically educating the masses in the face of this virus episode Dr Campbell, thanks
Thanks Dr. Campbell for all the valuable information!!!
I absolutely love how easily he teaches. He is so informative and knowledgeable.
Thank you for ur lessons dr. John. Wish you the best!
Thorough, informative...and riveting, really...sometimes you just realize how much you don't know....thanks, Doc.
Thank you for your tireless efforts in educating the community in this great time of need. You are making a difference.
I live here in the Midwest, USA. You mentioned the cost of being tested is a problem here. The Government just announced, the test will be free of charge. They just allocated $8.5 Billion to fight this Corona virus.
Rudy Alan but apparently they require loads of other tests first which need to be paid for before they get the coronavirus....so many won’t be able to pay for this
At this point, USA announced it has tested less than 5,000. What was announced was that Anyone that wants testing can get it. That is not what is going down. Red tape, confusion and Dr.‘s power tripping on the allowing orders or no orders is what I’ve heard about.
Only problem is they will test you for every germ out there first, which is costly. Mercy hospital administrator heard saying "we are in the business of paying customers."
Blue Rose. Have you attempted to go thru public health Dept.
Rudy Alan Now ALL treatment for the virus will be covered. I knew they would do that. But everyone wants to be negative and complain about EVERYTHING!!! It’s ALL covered now, but people will still lie.
Tell everyone to lie! Tell them to say they travelled or have an aunt that was over from Iran. They’ll test then! They’ve lied for weeks!
Smart! 👍 👍
No they will check it out. Just say you were at the airport watching the planes coming and going!
Make up a better one that they can't possibly disprove. You interacted with someone from the worst affected regions at the grocery store. They even had a cough but you didn't think anything of it at the time.
Recently went to ER. They asked if I traveled outside the country in the last 14 days, I said no. They asked if I had close contact with an Asian community, I said I ate an egg roll a few days ago. They wouldn't test me.
Yeah, let's take the tests away from the high risk high priority patients in a stand of defiance, that'll show em.
Dr John Campbell is a hero and a saviour! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us all.

How does fasting help with viral infections? First off it lowers your blood sugar and insulin, this allows white blood cells to move more freely throughout the body and do their job. Ideal blood sugar is around 80. Second it shuts down your ribosomes, which are the factories in your cells used to produce proteins. This is what a virus needs to reproduce and it can't reproduce without them. Third, it stimulates the AMPK complex and activates autophagy. Autophagy (literally self eating) will causes cells to recycle foreign matter such as viruses. AMPK does many helpful things in the body including activating the body's antioxidant defenses. Fasting also puts you into deep ketosis, which virtually eliminates inflammation in the body. This can offset the life threatening symptoms of viral pneumonia which effectively kills you through inflammation. This also creates BHB ketones in your body, which help your immune system. When you fast, your T and B cells retreat to the bone marrow and are renewed at a genetic level, each cell having all its DNA repaired. This supercharges your immune system and makes your cells young again. On top of all this, fasting encourages the direct apoptosis (death) of infected cells, shortcutting the typically length process of killing them off through macrophages.

I find your suggestion for people to fast to people not used to it quite dangerous. Some might call it harmful. This is not something you can simply eyeball as people obviously will try after your post. So please stop.

I hope you are looking after yourself doctor, I hope to see your videos going on until we get to the other side
I only found your very beneficial video only a few days ago. I look you up every day now to see your latest one. You make the medical words more far more practical, easier and interesting for everyone that follow your videos. I found the one on vitamin D very interesting as there is a lot of misleading stuff on social media regarding vitamins. I took your advise and started the vitamin D since your video. I appreciate your analysis on the coronavirus and your insight into it. You put your medical words into plain language. You are one of the best things that ever came on social media.
I'm so glad I found you on social media. Keep up the good work, and I do hope you will enlighten me and everyone with knowledge for years to come
Even when the virus is finally gone with the help of God you will continue to do the video on various different medical topics.
Here is one of your great admirers.

In Wuhan, ICU capacity was increased by over 1,000 beds in two weeks by building a new hospital, but this is not possible in the UK.
Managing an ICU patient with Covid-19 is more complex than normal ICU care. Patients must be individually isolated. All staff must wear “personal protective equipment” (PPE), which consists of, as a minimum, a tight-fitting face mask, an extra gown, gloves, goggles and visor. PPE must be put on and taken off before and after patient contact and checked by a “buddy” colleague. Despite this scrupulous process in China two in every five early infections were acquired in hospital and two-thirds of these were healthcare workers, a significant number of whom then died.
Ppe also has to be disinfected or its rendered useless of course
Not a lot of healthcare workers died. Only a couple dozen
I am a Registered Nurse in the US and have been an avid fan of D. Campbell for a long time. I wish we had a Dr. Campbell in our country. In all my years of education and experience as a nurse I have never had a professor explain such complex biological systems as well and thoroughly as Dr. Campbell. He not only teaches us to care for patients, as is so necessary during this pandemic, but he explains the body's system's reaction to illness in terms a layman can understand. Well done. Well done, to use a British term. In the states I would use "awesome." He should be recognized as the voice of reason and medicine. My hero.
Lois HeuerRNMS
I would be interested In hearing your opinion on the preponderance of healthcare practitioners wearing their uniform to and from work (hospitals). I’m surprised this hasn’t been addressed yet. It is ubiquitous in the UK, and I’d imagine the scope for infection is huge!
I have often thought about that. When i was a cadet nurse in the 60s no way were you allowed to wear your uniform after your work finished. You had to change and get into your normal stuff and your tunic and apron went to the laundry. Now days you see medical staff in cafes, on public transport, in pubs, outside hospital grounds smoking etc and they are taking all those germs into the hospital.
Thanks again Dr Campbell, your voice of reason in these trying times is heartening.
Coronavirus UK warning: Italy issues dire warning to UK ‘1 in 10 will need intensive care’
Based on that info its time the Government got their act together. We need temporary hospitals set up in every town and village. We need training and equipment and volunteers quickly.
More than 1 in 10 its over 10 percent...
@@marydonohoe5236 iv been looking for this info in uk/ireland, i suspected as much from what im hearing within usa.
What r good sources?
If I calmly explain to people thst we need to be proactive rather than reactive, I am met with responses that I am freaking out over nothing or that this virus has been around for years. I am visiting family in the USA and the restaurants are heaving. People are on waiting lists. No one is showing any signs of proactive behavior. No one wants to be considered weird by wearing a mask.
@@superalfie1888 I think I have figured out the reasoning going on in Europe and the UK: On one side you want to slow the spread not to overwhelm the hospitals, but on the other hand, you don't want it to spread too slowly either, because that means that other countries will recover before you, when herd imunity become prevalent and the epidemic ends. As long as the spread matches the neighbouring countries, you won't lose business, as some of the early countries start to recover and attract customers again. I also think this is the reasoning behind the Laissez faire approach in the US. The choice is between letting it run as fast as possible without too many deaths, but be finished with it early, otherwise, the economic impact will be that much more severe and take years to recover from, as your customers have found other suppliers. So somwhere in a dimly lit government office, there are spreadsheets on CFR vs. economy recovery time! In that respect, China is ahead; They got it as the earliest possible date, and they did everything imaginable to shorten the epedemic, so they might come out on top before the rest of the world? Talk about turning a disaster into profit! Please observe, this is also a kind of an investment advice, for anyone interested in buying the bottom. However there is still the caveat about reinfection, and not even China knows if they get a breather before the next wave hits, or if it will be benign enough to keep the factories running through it, but most certainly, the Chinese have calculated how large a percentage needs to be immune to keep the factories running.
You sir are a quality man. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world!
We wish to convey a strong message: Get ready!”
The doctors said Italian hospital has recorded a “very high” number of intensive care patients who had been admitted to hospital “almost entirely” for severe lung failure triggered by the virus, who had required ventilators in order to breathe.
Hospitals in the UK and across Europe as a whole needed to get ready for a big increase in admissions, the experts said, stressing the importance of having equipment to protect staff.
I agree , Italian hospitals are fathoming a "collapse amount" of persons with severe form of infection , but the intensive measures are only for who's - as a matter of fact - risking life. Other countries should increase intensive care places in advance, before the spread surpasses a thousand persons in danger.

These self help videos by Dr C are very welcome, especially considering the possibility of medical services being overwhelmed in the future, I wonder if any self help options for pneumonia were possible in the old days before health services.
Great video, as usual - honestly most of this is stuff I think we should teach teenagers before they graduate secondary school, along with how to deal with taxes. Imagine how much less scary illness is when you understand what's going on, why it's happening, and when it's normal vs not - it'd probably reduce the number of "unnecessary" doctor's visits, too (medically unnecessary, that is, though obviously they're perceived as necessary to the patient who's ill and doesn't know what to do).
A thermometer and a pulse oximeter should be standard equipment in every household. I wouldn't mind having a blood pressure cuff either tbh. If I don't need to go to the doctor for it, I'd rather not.
Thank you, Dr. Campbell! Been bing watching your videos for a couple of days. I sure am glad I found you! USA 🇺🇸

I am in the Northeast USA and it has been fascinating watching how things are worked out at a more local level.
I think that is how it will work within the states.

They canceled St Patrick’s parade in most states around here. It is all being handled by local authorities but it is happening.

Thank you for your informative videos. To many doctors don't take the time to explain details. It's a club secret for many. It is helpful for patients to understand their illnesses. Self care is essential in healing. You are greatly appreciated.
I wouldn’t be surprised if some governments of the world have weighed everything up, health vs money. As it’s mainly older & vulnerable people that are the worst affected, have they calculated that that’s the price to they’re willing pay, with it also saving them on pension pay outs?
I notice in the news it’ll say somebody died of the virus & then mention they had an underlying illness.
Underlying illness? that’s basically a lot of older people.
Is the statement supposed to be some sort of cop out for the government being slow about stopping flights weeks ago etc?
A lot of people live for decades with manageable illnesses, are they trying to imply that because they had an underlying illness, it’s not that bad?
