Antibodies against the original strain of SARS-CoV-2 may not work as well with omicron

If you're wondering why after two vaccination doses and a booster shot, you still got sick from the omicron strain of the virus that causes COVID-19, one possible answer may have been found in a recent study by researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institutes of Health.

Omicron caused an increase in COVID-19 cases in pregnant women, but less severe illness

Women who were pregnant during the recent Omicron surge were diagnosed with COVID-19 at a much higher rate than during previous phases of the pandemic, but were less likely to develop severe illness, a study by UT Southwestern and Parkland Health scientists found.

mRNA booster vaccination found to protect aged mice against the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2

A new study examined the protective effect of the mRNA booster vaccine against the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant in 21-month-old mice.

Free fatty acid-binding pocket found to be preserved across spike proteins of beta coronaviruses

Researchers assessed the binding pocket of linoleic acid, an essential free-fatty acid in the receptor-binding domains of the spike protein of beta-coronaviruses.

CDC issues health alert about children identified with hepatitis and adenovirus infection

CDC today issued a nationwide health alert to notify clinicians and public health authorities about a cluster of children identified with hepatitis and adenovirus infection – and to ask all physicians to be on the lookout for symptoms and to report any suspected cases of hepatitis of unknown origin to their local and state health departments.
