Dr. David Eiffrig wrote a column about urinary tract infections: “Emergency physician Erika Kube, M.D. mentioned in 2021 in the Columbus Dispatch, “Altered mental status is often the only symptom of a UTI in an elderly person. Behavior such as increased confusion, hallucinations, agitation, dizziness, falls and poor motor skills are often mistaken for early stages of dementia, but all can be caused by a UTI.” Also called delirium, this rapid worsening of the mental state is more common than you’d think. It’s found in nearly 30% of older folks with UTIs.” Are these cases all from bacterial infections or are those people with UTIs showing dementia symptoms a subset with viral infections, either alone or along with bacterial infection as well?

A 2018 study estimated that infection triggers roughly half of all cases of delirium in seniors. As for the reason why, scientists suspect a UTI triggers inflammation that can disrupt how our neurons function. And UTIs are the second-most-common type of infection in adults aged 65 and over at hospitals and community-living centers (with lung infections ranked No. 1). What is Creator’s perspective about the frequency of viral vs. bacterial causation?

A viewer writes: “My lung function has improved perceptibly, and I no longer am experiencing a need to cough so frequently. What is responsible for this progress? Is it due to further divine karmic repair, my continued use of Creator’s Antiviral Regimen, or some other factor?”
