This week on the podcast Shini Somara and Emma Keeling look at hair loss as a potential Covid-19 symptom. A leading hair loss clinic in London has recently reported that a number of patients suffering from temporary hair loss also experienced COVID-19 related symptoms three months prior to seeking treatment.
Emma Keeling spoke to an administrator at the clinic who also tested positive for Covid-19 in March [01:03]. Rali Bozhinova, a trichologist at the clinic, also gives a possible explanation for the temporary hair loss and why she thinks there has been a rise in the disorder during the pandemic [03:56].
In what’s exciting us in science this week, Shini Somara tells us about a biotechnology that could lead to less seafood waste and Emma Keeling explains why mouthwash could help us fight COVID-19.
