Scientists find key reason for ongoing loss of smell in long-COVID

In a recent study published in the journal Science Translational Medicine, researchers reported that long-term anosmia following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) could be a result of persistent T-cell mediated inflammation occurring in the olfactory epithelium even after the elimination of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) from the olfactory tissue.

An estimated 19 million US adults living with long-COVID

In a recent study published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases, a team of researchers examined the risk factors and prevalence and impact of long coronavirus disease (COVID) among a representative sample of adults in the United States (U.S.) and reported that close to 19 million U.S. adults suffer from long COVID.

Scientists study OAS–RNase L errors and COVID-19-associated multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children

Researchers assessed the inborn abnormalities of 2′-5′-oligoadenylate synthetase (OAS)-ribonuclease L (RNASEL) noted in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C).

Exploring plasma and nasal antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination

Researchers evaluated plasma and nasal antibody titers responses induced by natural severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccinations among United Kingdom (UK) residents.

Hybrid immunity from mRNA vaccines and breakthrough Omicron infections induces stronger immune responses against Omicron BQ.1.1

Researchers evaluated plasma samples from individuals vaccinated with a fourth booster dose of mono- or bivalent mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccine to evaluate the recognition and neutralization capacity against the ancestral (D614G) strain and the Omicron BQ.1.1 subvariant.

High efficacy of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in preventing COVID-19 deaths in children and adolescents

A new study evaluated the effectiveness of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines in Argentinian children when severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Delta and Omicron were predominant.

23 Dec 2022

Beta-containing COVID-19 booster vaccine found to cross-neutralize variants in non-human primates

A new paper presents preliminary evidence that a new vaccine candidate, designed to boost immunity in already immunized individuals, and containing the adjuvanted Beta spike variant protein antigen, can induce a potent cross-neutralizing antibody response in non-human primate models that is detectable for up to three months.
