Filippa Lentzos launches report at UN Headquarters, emphasizing the need for global governance in high-risk pathogen research post-COVID-19. Report underscores critical gap in global occupational health...
Iron dysregulation due to SARS-CoV-2 infection could be a key trigger for long COVID, with ongoing inflammation and disrupted iron levels seen early post-infection. Early detection...
Study in Nature Communications finds persistent brain injury markers in COVID-19 patients’ blood months post-infection, particularly evident in those with neurological complications during acute illness and...
Interrupting immune-suppressing treatment for two weeks post-COVID booster doubled antibody response for six months in inflammatory condition patients. Full trial findings support enhanced protection without increased...
A person’s vulnerability to different SARS-CoV-2 variants is influenced by their initial exposure, shaping their immune response and affecting vaccine effectiveness. The study highlights the need...
Studies of a ‘future-proof’ vaccine candidate have shown that just one antigen can be modified to provide a broadly protective immune response in animals. The studies...
New research has identified which people with compromised immune systems are less likely to have COVID-19 antibodies – making them more vulnerable to a severe infection....
