Latest Coronavirus Disease COVID 19 News and Research

Study shows homologous COVID boosters better than heterologous in most kidney transplant recipients

Researchers screen kidney transplant recipients to evaluate their serological responses following immunization with three doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Immunity based upon “mild" Omicron infection is weak for Omicron reinfection

Researchers evaluate antibody responses in vaccinated individuals who subsequently developed Delta and Omicron SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections.

COVID-19 vaccines elicit cross-reactive antibodies against endemic coronaviruses

Researchers study the interaction between immunity to endemic coronaviruses and SARS-CoV-2.

Escape from vaccine-induced immunity likely contributed to rapid rise of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron

Researchers investigate whether the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant is more likely to infect vaccinated individuals than the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant.

Scientists evaluate zoonotic potential of NeoCoV, a coronavirus related to MERS-CoV

Researchers identify ACE2 as the functional receptor of the two close relatives of MERS-CoV, NeoCoV and PDF-2180-CoV, in bats.

Research evaluates whether HCWs exposed to SARS-CoV-2 at home should work

Researchers assess the risk of healthcare-associated SARS-CoV-2 transmission in a tertiary care mother and child center in Canada.

Using lateral flow testing to define COVID-19 self-isolation period

A recent study discusses the role of lateral flow device testing in potentially improving COVID-19 isolation policies.

Imaging microscopy shows killer T-cells targeting SARS-CoV-2 spike protein

Researchers demonstrate how cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) with specificity for SARS-CoV-2 eliminate multiple infected targets.

30 Jan 2022

Adults and children have similar neutralizing antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection

Researchers describe the kinetics of SARS-CoV-2-specific serum antibodies in convalescent children over six months following infection.

Treating COVID with antibiotics could be a much simpler way of making people better

A recent study conducted in an Egyptian hospital showed that treating moderate-to-severe COVID patients with either one of two antibiotics (ceftazidime or cefepime, in combination with a steroid) resulted in similar recovery times compared to patients given standard treatment.

Researchers develop a real-time method for projecting COVID-19 quarantine housing needs

It's difficult to plan ahead when SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is so unpredictable. But, there is now a straightforward method for predicting one of the resources needed to slow the spread of COVID-19 in communities.

28 Jan 2022

Mix-and-match of COVID-19 vaccine boosters found to be safe and effective

In adults who had previously received a full regimen of a COVID-19 vaccine approved or authorized by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), an additional dose of any of these COVID-19 vaccines was safe and prompted an immune response, according to study findings published Jan. 26 in The New England Journal of Medicine.

Studying the effect of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine on human lung carcinoma epithelial cells using Raman spectroscopy and imaging

Researchers from the Lodz University of Technology have been investigating the effects of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines on human lung carcinoma cells.
