Anyone traveling to India for the first time is facing a biochemical adventure.
Those who are able to travel in India without any injuries and have no illness at all are really good luck and good health.
This is because you have the ability to escape from the horrible attack of foreign microorganisms in the South Asian subcontinent.
Will I get sick in India?
The sanitary environment in which Westerners grew up made their immune systems unable to cope with India's unique deadly bacteria.
Whether they eat or drink water, or even just breathe the air there, they will get sick.
How to enjoy local Indian food (not yet sick)!
India is one of the most densely populated countries in the world, with low literacy and hygiene awareness, and limited access to clean water, gloves and masks.
The number of private hospitals is small and expensive.
Most government-run hospitals are understaffed and unprepared for major crises.
Therefore, you must think that the possibility of an outbreak in India is extremely high.
However, the Indians have been infected by the virus, and pneumonia is not affected.
Three brothers and three sisters walked in and out of the three major outbreaks of various epidemics around the world.
Are Indians immune to SARS virus?
According to the "Hidden Geometry of Complex, Network-Driven Infection Phenomenon" model published in the journal Science, the countries and regions that rank among the top 10 for entering coronavirus cases are: Thailand, Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, the United States, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, and Cambodia.
The study found that the risk of a coronavirus import in Thailand was 2.1%, and that in India was only 0.2%.
Indians live in an environment full of pollution and garbage, and their indifferent attitude towards cleanliness makes the entire country an ideal breeding ground for bacteria.
But instead of getting sick more often, they thrived under harsh living conditions.
The biological theory of natural selection and survival of the fittest is perfectly reflected here.
Unlike most other races on the planet, Indians are not the sweet flowers in the greenhouse.
They have become accustomed to living in harmony with pests and have gained immunity from these microorganisms.
Indians have more immune genes
In India, even if you take a short walk, you have to play twelve minutes.
Always be cautious and tremble forever.
Once inattentive, you may step on a pile of muddy stools in the next second.
India has as many as 157 million people living in areas without toilets.
As the world's largest open toilet, 41 million people defecate in the open air, so that the daily feces on the street are enough to fill 8 Olympic-sized swimming pools, or 16 Boeing 747s.
These data come from the World Toilet Organisation's "State of the World Toilet 2016" report.
Even if you live in an environment where you must make mosaics to barely catch your eyes, you still laugh and laugh, live alive and live, and the epidemic is unaffected. Who do you want to justify?
In the eyes of foreigners, all Indians are like Marvel characters, and their superpower is virus immunity.
India announces no bird flu
"I've almost never had a cold, parasite or infection," said Saki Khan, a nine-year-old schoolboy.
This super strong immune system is something you cannot envy.
About 20,000 mice living in the temple are the reincarnation of the Hindu goddess.
People from all over India fed and breastfeeded them, and even slept with them. They were fortunate to be blessed by the gods.
In the United States, more than 80% of cases of typhoid fever are transmitted when traveling to India.
Even if you live in a 5-star resort, you still can't be lucky.
There are many examples of troublesome stomachs after brushing your teeth with tap water, and even drinking bottled water does not guarantee that you will be safe.
How to avoid getting sick in India – experienced traveler advice
Street snacks are extremely discouraged. The common name in English for stomach trouble is called "Delly belly".
Samosa and meat pies may be delicious, but when you have a severe stomach infection due to food poisoning, you know the power of E. coli or staphylococcus.
Don't do this
Delhi belly survives
And once you persist in India for 3 or 4 weeks, your body will gain a lot of immunity, and you will be able to eat, drink, run and jump again.
But never relax your vigilance. Compared with the innate divine power of the Indians, you are just resisting miracles.
The Center for Immunogenetics at the University of California, Los Angeles has found that Indians carry a natural killer cell that can detect and stop infections at an early stage compared to other populations around the world.
Studies have shown that Indians have obtained genes that activate killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors through natural selection to enable them to withstand environmental challenges.
Differences between Indian and American infants in various immune parameters
These receptor proteins are cells of the immune system that protect the body from disease by identifying and killing pathogens and tumor cells.
In most cases, these cells can greatly maintain human health and prevent infection.
Although most Indians gain immunity from breast milk and the surrounding environment at birth, India has not achieved the goal of improving child mortality.
In fact, India has the highest number of child deaths in the world, with an estimated 1.2 million children dying each year, accounting for 20% of the world's 5.9 million deaths each year.
For more than 1.2 billion poor people, this fight against disease is a daily experience they are familiar with.
And once they survive, they can be regarded as the sons of heaven.
At this point, the Indians' survival is not complete.
The capital, Delhi, is the most polluted city on the planet, and even the mayor calls his city a gas chamber.
Visibility there was so low that United Airlines cancelled flights to India.
Air suffocates 19 million residents and breathing one day is equivalent to smoking 50 cigarettes.
In addition, at least 140 million people in India breathe air that exceeds the WHO safety limit by 10 times or more.
The 10 most polluted cities in the world are all in northern India
However, the Ji people have their own heavens.
If air pollution is a human calamity, then the Ganges mother is like a god in heaven, removing the dirty and turbulent karma for Hindus.
They believed that immersion in the holy river would free them from sin, whether dead or alive.
The Ganges water is regarded by the Indians as the purest holy water, and it provides water for about 400 million people.
It is true that the river is full of industrial waste water, human waste, tannery chemicals, cow dung, cremated or uncremated remains, animal carcasses, viscera, chemical dyes in the sari plant, construction waste ... all in the Ganges .
The medical properties of the Ganges River include cures for all diseases. To this day, people who have not tasted holy water are still regarded as beliefs and myths.
But the latest scientific research shows that despite the deterioration and pollution of the Ganges, it does have extraordinary therapeutic effects.
A new scientific study reports that the Ganges water is "self-cleaning" and has "the ability to cure diseases"
For the first time, scientists at the Chandigarh Institute of Microbial Technology have confirmed that this ancient river has the ability to cure diseases and has scientific basis.
Microbiologists have discovered several types of phage that keep the Ganges water pure.
"Our findings reveal a variety of different bacteriophages that have specific bactericidal properties." The Journal of the Indian Science quoted Dr. Samugan Meyeragi, chief scientist of the institute.
The doctor further added: "These new virions have never been reported, and these phages are active against many clinical isolates and can be used for resistance to multidrug resistance or MDR infections."
Now scientifically proven; the Ganges water is "sacred"!
Dr. Meyerage and his team have identified 20-25 interesting phage viruses for the treatment of tuberculosis, typhoid fever, pneumonia, cholera, dysentery, diarrhea, and meningitis.
Phage in Ganges water
"People who die from cancer today are not just older people, but anyone," said Heather Hendrickson of Massey University in Auckland, New Zealand. "We are back to the era of antibiotics, because we can't fight infections, so life is shortened."
"If we want to avoid a gloomy vision for the future, we need a thorough solution, and we need to reconsider those phages that have rescued villagers on both sides of the Ganges."
Hendrickson presented her research at the BBC Future World Change Ideas Summit in Sydney on November 15, 2016.
In the course of human evolution for tens of thousands of years, viruses and immunity have always been rivals.
For the body's own immune system, the virus is, in the final analysis, just a paper tiger.
When you are strong, you are weak, and when you are weak, you are weak.
So in the final analysis, eating and sleeping well and strengthening exercise are the keys to maintaining health.
