Back to basics: Remember that the body’s acid-base balance depends on delicately balanced chemical reactions that require the pH of blood to remain slightly alkaline within a normal range of 7.35-7.45. For normal cell function and metabolism, the blood’s pH must stay within this narrow range. A pH greater than 7.45 creates alkaline conditions and a pH lower than 7.35 is too acidic for the body. The cause of acid-base imbalances is either respiratory or metabolic in origin. We talked about respiratory imbalances due to CO2 concentration and pH in Chapter 9. One of the triggering condition for a fusion of Coronovirus (COVID-19) with a human cell is an acidified environment on the surface of the cell. In other words, the virus needs a low pH environment and thrives in it. Once the patient starts experiencing some coughing and minor trouble with breathing, the lungs begin to lose the capacity to eliminate CO2 from the blood stream. Once this happens the virus can spiral very quickly out…
