Could novel lineages eventually dominate the viral population?

A new study puts forward a bottom-up approach to quickly predict whether a lineage will dominate the viral population, at a particular geographical location.

Breakthrough Omicron BA.1/BA.2 infections in the triple-vaccinated linked to broad-based immunity

A new study looked at the whole spectrum of immunological reactions raised by spike and non-spike antigens following Omicron BA.1/BA.2 infections in such individuals, both with and without prior SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Researchers utilize discarded facial tissues to diagnose respiratory viral infections in children

Researchers developed an innovative method to diagnose respiratory viral infections (RVIs) in children using discarded facial tissues.

Risk factors for Omicron reinfections among previously infected frontline workers in the United States

Researchers examined a prospective cohort of frontline workers in the United States (US) previously infected with SARS-CoV-2. They attempted to identify risk factors that made this highly vulnerable population prone to reinfection by SARS-CoV-2 new variant of concern (VOC), Omicron, known for its high immune evading potential.

Repeated COVID-19 vaccination may improve public health outcomes

A recent study suggests that repeated vaccination at frequent intervals might improve COVID-19 vaccine efficacy and the trajectory of the pandemic.

Study finds link between neurodegeneration in obese people and Alzheimer's disease

A new study led by scientists at The Neuro (Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital) of McGill University finds a correlation between neurodegeneration in obese people and Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, suggesting that losing excess weight could slow cognitive decline in aging and lower risk for AD.

Acute tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis in children post-COVID-19

A new study reported a novel form of post-acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) syndrome in children.

31 Jan 2023

Implications of SARS-CoV-2 immunological evasion

Researchers modeled the implications of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) immunological evasion.

Rapid engineering of novel SARS-CoV-2 therapeutic antibodies

Researchers assessed the influence of rapid engineering of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) therapeutic antibodies to expand the neutralization spectrum.

31 Jan 2023

Pilot interview study reports a wide variation in long COVID symptom types and severity and awareness about the disease

Researchers reported the findings from a pilot interview study that was conducted to gain insights into the new and persistent symptoms experienced by long coronavirus disease (COVID) patients and to obtain data for the study design and participant recruitment for the Real-time Assessment of Community Transmission-Long COVID (REACT-LC) study.
