Depression and your immune system One of these comorbidities that appears to increase the risk of long COVID is depression. It might seem somewhat odd that a problem associated with having long COVID is also a predictor of long COVID, but there is good reason to suspect that depres...
We review evidence that variability in innate immune system components among humans is a main contributor to the heterogeneous disease courses observed for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the disease spectrum induced by SARS-CoV-2. A better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms ...
respiratory syndrome (MERS)-CoV31. The effects of aging on the human immune system have been extensively reviewed elsewhere30,32,33,34; thus, we will focus on aspects of the aging immune system that specifically overlap with characteristics of the immune response during severe COVID-19 outcomes...
In the mouse model of COVID-19, researchers were able to rescue infected mice from pneumonia by blocking the NLPR3 inflammasome pathway. With the inflammasome pathway blocked, immune system cells were still infected. But they were no longer inflammatory and therefore could not contribute to damagin...
A study by Stanford University of Medicine and other institutions suggests that immunological differences in the innate immune system may contribute to the varying severity of COVID-19 cases. Some people get really sick fromCOVID-19, and others don’t. Nobody knows why. ...

Vaccines are a powerful weapon in the fight against COVID-19. As China redoubles efforts in raising the vaccination rate for the elderly, and the second booster shot becomes available to vulnerable groups, misinformation about COVID vaccines is also spre
