(KGTV) — Stone Brewery's move on Berlin may have been too much, too soon.The San Diego-based brewery has decided to sell their Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Berlin facility to Brewdog, a Scottish craft brewer that owns and operates a series of pubs around the world.The decision was attributed to the cost of maintaining the 1901 gasworks property used as Stone's facility, as well as Germany's construction industry, Stone's co-founder Greg Koch wrote on the company's blog.. RELATED: Judge swats Stone Brewing's injunction, says 'strong' case against MillerCoors"To feed a beast like Stone Berlin, we needed volume. The sheer cost of building and maintaining Stone Berlin to our standards didn’t let us grow it slowly," Koch wrote on the post titled, "Farewell Stone Brewing Berlin: Too Big, Too Bold, Too Soon." He went on to say, "the truth is, the construction industry in Berlin is broken. Yes, there’s a lot of bureaucracy. The U.S. has more than a bit of that, so we were prepared for it."And also in part to German taste buds."Amazing beer is being brewed by amazing brewers all over the country. Unfortunately, according to the stats, most Germans are still ignoring these wonderful beers and buying the cheap stuff," Koch wrote.RELATED: Three San Diego breweries named to top craft breweries list — because of courseThe brewery said it will continue to distribute its beer throughout Germany, after making many "converts" in Europe. Some Stone beers will still be brewed at the Berlin location. The facility, however, will be under Brewdog."We invested a significant portion of a decade and significant millions building Stone Berlin. And it didn’t work out. These things hurt and these things happen. This one happened. And this one hurts a lot," Koch wrote. 1791

A 36-year-old man who was suffering from chronic heart failure shocked doctors when he coughed up a blood clot closely resembling the bronchial tree in his right lung in late November.Georg Wieselthaler, a transplant and pulmonary surgeon at the University of California at San Francisco told the Atlantic: “We were astonished. It’s a curiosity you can’t imagine—I mean, this is very, very, very rare.”Per the New England Journal of Medicine, the man was an ICU patient at the University of San Francisco Medical Center being treated for end-stage heart failure.During the week of the patient's hospitalization, the man had periodic episodes of coughing, which progressed to one extreme coughing fit when he suddenly expelled the unusual clot. After being supplied oxygen via a tube, the man's coughing ceased two days later, leading to the removal of the tube. Unfortunately, even though the coughing ceased, his health took a turn for the worse.Despite the doctor's best efforts and the assistance of a ventrical device, the man died from heart failure a week later.The source of information in this article has been provided largely in part to an article in the New England Journal of Medicine. 1225

“Today I'm donating convalescent plasma,” Judy Lutkin said.“This will be my third time donating.” Lutkin had COVID-19 back in April. “I was pretty sick for about four or five days,” she said. Now she comes infrequently to donate plasma. “It doesn't hurt. It doesn't feel bad. It’s fairly easy.”Plasma is just one of the tools used in fighting coronavirus. As it gets donated, it goes to COVID patients.Since early April, when Vitalant started collecting these donations, they’ve collected more than 9,700 donations equaling more than 33,000 units.“You could help as many as five patients with one sitting,” Liz Lambert, Vitalant spokesperson, said.Vitalant is a nonprofit that collects blood for about 1,000 hospitals across the country.“Right now, there's an emergency need for convalescent plasma as we anticipate more patients will be getting that treatment, or hospitals will be wanting to use that treatment,” Lambert said.The FDA issued an emergency use authorization for convalescent plasma as a potential COVID-19 treatment in late August. Convalescent plasma is taken from the blood of someone who’s already contracted a particular illness, in this case, COVID-19.This isn’t the first time in history; it’s been used to treat a virus.“Convalescent plasma is a very historic and crude way of conferring so-called passive immunity to patients who have a viral or bacterial disease,” Doctor Phil Stahel, Chief Medical Officer at the Medical Center of Aurora, said.So far, this center has treated 100 COVID-19 patients using this method.“Studies have shown that convalescent plasma is very safe,” he said. “It has been recently used for Ebola and other viral diseases for which we do not have a vaccination.”Doctor Stahel said patients they treat who are significantly sick could recover within 24 to 48 hours.Here’s how it works.“Antibodies are proteins that we form in our blood that attack antigens once our immune system recognizes them. It takes weeks for these to develop,” Doctor Ralph Vassallo, Chief Medical & Scientific Officer for Vitalant, said.The antibodies are taken from a recovered patient and put in a patient who recently contracted the disease.“The idea of convalescent plasma is to give them, in that period, when the patient does not have their immune response, to help neutralize the virus and prevent it from infecting cells in the body,” Doctor Vassallo said. “Convalescent plasma has been used for over 100 years in respiratory infections, including influenza.”With more hospitals using convalescent plasma to help COVID-19 patients, blood donation centers hope to identify more plasma donors who have recovered from the virus.“Whether its blood or convalescent plasma, there is a constant need,” Lambert said.Vitalant checks every regular blood donor for the antibodies as well, in hopes of identifying more possible donors.“In the first couple of September, it’s been about 3.6% nationwide,” Dr. Vassallo said.Those interested in donating convalescent plasma need to meet the same requirements as a blood donor, like being 16 years old or older, and at least 110 pounds.However, they also need to have a doctor-referred case of COVID-19 or doctor-referred antibody test.“It is indeed the first line of defense, and we should treat those patients early. This is for the adult in patients who are severely sick and at risk of getting on a ventilator, which we try to avoid by all means,” Doctor Stahel said. 3450
