and possibly generalizable to other respiratory viruses that transmit preferentially or opportunistically12by the airborne route. During the COVID-19 pandemic in China, air sampling in various hospital locations found the highest airborne genome counts of SARS-CoV-2 in rooms where health care workers ...
COVID researchers are working at breakneck speed to learn about the variant’s transmissibility, severity and ability to evade vaccines. By Ewen Callaway & Heidi Ledford Twitter Facebook Email Barely a week has elapsed since scientists in Botswana and South Africa alerted the world to a fast-...
The new subvariant would be the latest in a long line to emerge sincethe pandemicbegan in China in late 2019. The omicron variant — the most transmissible strain so far — overtook the delta variant, which itself supplanted the alpha variant — and even this was not the original strain ...
The highly contagious novel respiratory coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, is readily transmissible to one another in proximity.1An alarming number of COVID-19 cases continue to threaten human health and has greatly impacted us socially and economically. Accordin...
Current COVID-19 vaccines are based on the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, which the virus uses to bind to and infect host cells, of the original Wuhan-hu-1. But the emerging “variants of concern”—deemed so because they appear to be more transmissible or deadlier than the wild-type SARS-...
as was observed for lower antibodies during acute COVID-19 in younger children (<5 years). The timeframe of symptom onset was also considered in understanding the acute immune response. In our acute COVID-19 cohort, the median timeframe between symptom onset and their sample being collected ...
COVID’s highly transmissible omicron variant could muddy the outlook -- either by causing outbreaks that force factories and ports to close and thereby disrupting supply chains even more or by keeping people home and reducing demand for goods. ...
Although, after 4 years, COVID-19 continues circulating, driven by the wildly transmissible new variants, these findings suggest that dogs could be trained and deployed as a first response to new threats or future pandemics. Sniffer dogs performed better than RAD under controlled settings but were...
