Some Good News...........

[ParrotNuts]

It came in the news today that the Covid vaccine that is being made now, will be more efficient on people who do not use Non-Stick Cookware as Polyurethane will disrupt the vaccine's work. Hopefully this will make less people want to use Non Stick Cookware

That makes literally no sense. But ok lol

You see, I was not the news anchor and nor will I ever be one, but I could give you the Channels name and you could take it from there

Um, @Hankmacaw can I ask why are you said?

*it may be less effective on those who use non-stick cookware

¨ Small amounts of per- and polyfluoroalkyl (or PFAS) chemicals are commonly found in the bodies of people in the US, as well as several other countries. These man-made chemicals, used in everything from non-stick pans to waterproof clothes to pizza boxes, have been linked to an elevated risk of liver damage, decreased fertility and even cancer.
But scientists warn some of these chemicals can also cause another little-known but potentially significant defect by reducing the effectiveness of certain administered vaccines. This impediment could cast a shadow over efforts to roll out a Covid-19 vaccine ¨

Covid: chemicals found in everyday products could hinder vaccine

Researchers worry PFAS, commonly found in the bodies of Americans, will reduce the immunization’s effectiveness

@ParrotNuts even the article title has the word ¨could¨. I don´t think there is anything concrete right now, but I´m not a scientist so I have no idea.

I'm sad because;
Here you go again posting, something you "heard ", as gospel. Something you heard from a talking head on TV. Polyurathane is not used on non-stick cookware, it is used as a protective coating on woods.

Polytetrafluoroethylene - or PTFE Which everyone on this forum has been warned about time after time. Much of the non-stick cookware is now made without PTFE or PFOA.

Like @Zara says she isn't a scientis,t I'm a very old scientist and I don't think at your age you are a scientist.


What is polyurethane used for?
Polyurethane wood finish is used to coat surfaces, protecting them from scratches and helping to resist water damage. Learning how to apply polyurethane can give wood furniture and flooring a glossy, smooth finish while improving its durability.

I read the article - interesting, sort of. Thanks @Zara. So maybe instead of being 95% effective it'll be 91% effective.

Can I get a link to it?

 

[ParrotNuts]

Can I get a link to it?

It was on TV, so I don't think I'll be able to get a link for you, but I'll check their website tomorrow.
And sorry....... @Hankmacaw and @Zara

I think as it was something he heard rather than read he likely remembered the wrong word. I know I mis-hear things a lot. From the link @Zara found it does seem that there may be some credence to the Teflon correlation.

When you think about it, it's hard telling what we've ingested into our bodies over the years. If those chemicals can harm our parrots, it seems likely that they're not good for us.

Who knew?

I've lived long enough that I've seen reports saying coffee was bad, coffee was good, eggs were bad for us, eggs were good..... I gave up and just enjoy food and drink.

You forgot the sugar, chocolate and the red wine lmao- I agree wholeheartedly with you, I figure it is just best to enjoy life and not over indulge in any one thing. The best advice I think they ever gave was everything should be enjoyed in moderation and all other advice after that is just too much for me to comprehend lol.

Maybe............
Also, I checked their website, there is nothing on there, and I don't think I should link their site, as it is all in Hindi
