More and more research has revealed that acupuncture can regulate immunity, for example, to enhance anticancer and antistress immune function and exert anti-inflammation effects. This may be the basis of acupuncture in preventing and treating later diseases.

From a naturopathic perspective it is believed that the “terrain” is more important than the “beast”. If we can make the terrain less friendly to the pathogen, it reduces both the risk and severity. It is just possible this COVID-19 may lead to an “enlightenment” within medicine that will change the focus from allopathy and the focus of drugs to naturopathy and the healing power of nature.

What nutritional supplements should I take for low immune function?
There are three products that I think are critical in supporting good immune function:
* A High Potency Multiple Vitamin and Mineral Formula
* Vitamin D3: 2,000-5,000 IU/day
* Fish oil: 1,000 to 3,000 mg EPA+DHA/day.
A high-potency multiple-vitamin and mineral formula is the first step in supporting the immune system with nutritional supplementation as it will address any underlying nutritional deficiencies. Deficiencies of virtually any nutrient can result in significantly impaired immune function especially deficiencies of vitamins C, E, A, B6, B12, and folic acid. Minerals that are especially important are zinc, iron, and selenium. In addition to a multiple, some specific nutrients are helpful in boosting immune function: vitamin C, vitamin E, and vitamin A.
Vitamin D3 is especially critical to immune health. Individuals who have vitamin D blood levels lower than 38 ng/ml had twice as many upper respiratory tract infections as those with higher levels. Clinical studies have validated vitamin D’s ability to reduce the risk of colds and flu. To ensure optimal vitamin D status, recently most health experts are advocating daily dosages of 2,000 to 5,000 IU.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Information | International Chiropractors Association
March 31, 2020, 2020 (Falls Church, VA) The United States federal agency responsible for managing critical services during the Coronoavirus-19 pandemic specifically included chiropractic in their updated, Guidance on the Essential Critical Infrastructure Workforce:Ensuring Community and National Resilience in COVID-19
Response. In the Essential Critical Infrastructure Workforce subsection on Health Care, chiropractors have been included, "Healthcare providers and Caregivers including physicians, dentists, ...nurses ...chiropractors..."
While this is specifically not a federal directive to the states, the guidance document is provided as a resource to Governor's to ease the strain of decision making for emergency planning overall, and in this instance for the COVID-19 response. In recent days, numerous governors have provided a link to this document in the 'Stay at Home' Executive Orders they have issued.
The International Chiropractors Association (ICA) is pleased that the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency of the Department of Homeland Security (CISA/DHS) has provided this much needed clarity. While it was presumed that chiropractors were categorized in the ambulatory services category; it was of vital importance to clarify by having a specific designation.
Our goal from day one of the pandemic has been to help ease the burden of the medical community by ensuring that chiropractors would remain available to address issues, unrelated to viral transmission, as well as staying available to existing patients.
On March 16, the ICA was the first chiropractic association to issue a public statement reaffirming chiropractic as an essential health care service. The ICA has been actively engaged with federal policy and legislative leaders regarding the importance of chiropractors in the COVID-19 response and applaud the agency's acknowledgement of the ICA's recommendation.
Dr. Stephen P. Welsh, ICA President stated, "Governors and other government leaders now have an updated COVID-19 emergency planning resource from the responsible US federal agency. The ICA is actively working at all levels of government to help our members preserve their ability to make their own decisions about seeing patients and helping out in their own communities; as well as to ensure patients continue to have access to their chiropractor during these trying times as needed. With this acknowledgement by the Department of Homeland Security, chiropractors are better positioned to do so. The ICA has created a COVID-19 resource page through which our community can find up to date information in one central location."
The COVID-19 Resource Page is http://www.chiropractic.org/covid

I have known Dr. Murray ND for years, He is a master at natural health.
I first met him in the late 1990's.
Does the flu shot increase the risk for coronavirus infection? While Facebook "fact checkers" have flagged this post as "false information," I am merely citing a study from the US Department of Defense. There is definitely evidence that influenza vaccines specifically increase the risk of coronavirus infection. Here is why, a phenomenon known as virus interference. It appears that the flu shot protects against influenza and it appears some other types of viruses as well, but it comes at a price of actually increasing the risk for coronavirus infections. That is exactly what a study that compared the respiratory virus status among 2,880 Department of Defense personnel based on their influenza vaccination status demonstrated. The study concluded “Vaccine derived virus interference was significantly associated with coronavirus.” The increased relative risk for a coronavirus infection was 36% greater in the vaccinated group. So, how Facebook "fact checkers" could label this as "false information" and then direct people to an irrelevant article that has nothing to do with the findings from this study is very suspicious to me.

I will let you know when I can reopen.
Prohibition on Chiropractic Elective Procedures
Dear Chiropractor Licensee,
The Division of Professions and Occupations (DPO) under the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA) has received a number of inquiries concerning the application of Executive Order D 2020 009. This email confirms that the Governor’s executive order applies to all chiropractic practices and it prohibits any elective procedure, including any chiropractic procedure, that does not fit within the very narrow categories listed in the order.
In particular, under Executive Order D 2020 009, no chiropractic procedure should be performed unless:
There is a threat to the patient’s life if the procedure is not performed;
There is a threat of permanent dysfunction of an extremity or organ system if the procedure is not performed;
There is a risk of metastasis or progression of staging of a disease or condition if the surgery is not performed; or
There is a risk that the patient's condition will rapidly deteriorate if the procedure is not performed and there is a threat to life, or to an extremity or organ system, or of permanent dysfunction or disability.
As is apparent, there are very few, if any, chiropractic procedures that fit within the rubric of these criteria. And as a result, we expect that most chiropractic practices across the state will necessarily halt operations during the emergency. Of course, if a practitioner believes that one or another patient meets the narrow categories listed here, then the order and DPO’s guidance allow for the discretion of the provider to provide a chiropractic procedure in those circumstances.
In summary, we advise you to suspend all non-essential healthcare practices at this time. We understand that this may cause unfortunate financial difficulties, but it is imperative that we all do our part to stop the spread of COVID-19.
