Author ProfileAbstract
Sars-Cov-2 is a pandemic virus that manifests itself with respiratory
distress as well as leading to symptoms and signs associated with the
gastrointestinal tract. It is especially manifested by the disturbed
immune status, which is also referred to as cytokine storm. Probiotics
are living microorganisms that have been shown to have beneficial
effects on human immunity. The immune modulation effects of some single
strain probiotic bacteria are more evident. Cytokine storm can be
controlled through these immune modulating effects of strain specific
probiotic bacteria.
