In biochemistry, certain proteins are called receptors.

These special proteins are said to have consistently been found in healthy

The symptoms of an infection with the #Coronavirus can be very different.

However, because the disease is very mild in most cases, it is important that we adhere to the AHA formula in order not to unknowingly infect others.
