More information about this trial is available at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.covidlightstudy.com\/\">https:\/\/www.covidlightstudy.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the trial device and the light therapy:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This completely remote and virtual clinical trial is investigating a non-invasive light therapy device, which utilizes red and near infrared light to alleviate symptoms of COVID-19. The device has a simple and compact design and is suitable for personal at-home use. Eligible participants will receive up to $500 for participation in the trial.<\/p>\n<p>Called \u201cVielight RX-Plus\u201d, the trial device is based on a similar Vielight device, which has been on the market for nearly two years, as a general wellness device, in accordance with the FDA guidelines. Over this period no adverse effects from this device have been reported. We believe the trial device to be safe, as supported by the current data and by required safety tests.<\/p>\n<p>The Vielight RX-Plus is intended to bring a holistic approach to COVID-19 patients. Stimulation of the thymus gland, creation of nitric oxide, increase in the number of natural killer cells, all are expected to provide beneficial systemic effects, acting as an anti-inflammatory therapy and increasing cellular energy.<\/p>\n<p>By conducting this study, we hypothesise that the Vielight RX-Plus will accelerate the time to recovery, while reducing the severity of COVID-19 symptoms. In addition to the benefits to the individuals recovering from COVID-19, we believe that the use of the device would result in less viral spread in the communities, and less burden to the Healthcare System.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the design of this clinical trial:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The clinical trial has been designed to be completely remote and virtual. This unique design has been authorized by Health Canada and by the USA ethics committee. The trial is intended to accommodate 280 COVID-19 patients in the USA and in the province of Ontario, Canada. Half of the participants will receive light therapy treatment and the other half will receive standard therapy.<\/p>\n<p>As we noted above, eligible participants will receive up to $500 for participation in the trial.\u00a0Also, friends and family could be eligible to receive a referral fee of $50 for every enrolled participant who they refer. This fee will be paid if the referred individual meets the study eligibility criteria and is enrolled in the trial.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More about this trial:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Recently, Toronto\u2019s CityTV featured this clinical trial in their news segment which provides more information about the study.

De la belle-m\u00e8re qui avait besoin de mon aide pour se d\u00e9placer? Du parent \u00e2g\u00e9 ou de l&rsquo;ami(e) qui avait besoin de r\u00e9confort et d&rsquo;\u00e9coute en temps de pand\u00e9mie? Finalement, apr\u00e8s ce court examen de conscience, le d\u00e9but de la nouvelle ann\u00e9e liturgique devrait nous inciter \u00e0 prendre de s\u00e9rieuses r\u00e9solutions pour nous rapprocher du Christ et de notre prochain: un peu plus de pri\u00e8re quotidienne peut-\u00eatre; une m\u00e9ditation r\u00e9guli\u00e8re des Saintes \u00c9critures; un petit sacrifice quotidien fait avec amour pour le salut de mes enfants ou amis ou pour un mourant; une d\u00e9cision d&rsquo;aller aider dor\u00e9navant la Saint-Vincent de Paul une fois par semaine pour distribuer ou pr\u00e9parer les repas aux plus d\u00e9munis; et la liste pourrait s\u2019allonger ind\u00e9finiment. Place aux id\u00e9es, aux projets et aux r\u00e9solutions qui me permettront de mieux pr\u00e9parer la naissance du Sauveur dans la mangeoire de mon c\u0153ur \u00e0 No\u00ebl! Ne serait-ce pas une belle fa\u00e7on d&rsquo;entreprendre la nouvelle ann\u00e9e liturgique? + Guy Desrochers, C.Ss.R., \u00c9v\u00eaque de Pembroke DU DIOC\u00c8SE Prayers For the repose of the soul of Mrs. Beatrice Grahl, mother-in-law of Cathy Grahl, Marriage Tribunal for the Diocese of Pembroke, who passed away peacefully on November 24th at the age of 99.
