Chinese, Hong Kong and German doctors have isolated the 3a protein, which serves as a channel for the SARS virus to enter healthy cells and then spread the virus that has been produced inside the cells. .

Typically, a virus enters the host cell and then breaks down the internal gene and produces other viruses. The human body can destroy strange viruses if there is enough time needed.

However, the SARS virus attacks too quickly into the respiratory system and severely damages vital organs before the body's immune system responds. Scientists found that barium elements can effectively inhibit 3a protein. At that time, the release of virus inside the cell significantly reduced and prevented their spread.
