Instead of special protection against long COVID, vaccines kept children and adolescents from developing the condition by blocking COVID-19 infections in the first place
Major reallocation of healthcare services during the COVID-19 pandemic meant that elective surgery in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) was significantly reduced, so that those needing urgent, lifesaving and emergency surgery could be treated.
The historic finalization of a groundbreaking International Agreement on Pandemic Prevention, Preparedness and Response took another positive step here on Saturday. The parties reached an agreement on principles and on Tuesday they are expected to finalize it before the World Health Assembly adopts the agreement when they convene May 19-27th.
Cleveland Clinic virology researchers have found that a specific protein modification to the immune protein MDA5 is key to how our bodies detect and respond to viruses and viral replication.
Researchers at The Ohio State University College of Medicine are the first in the world to design non-invasive smell aids that improve the ability to smell in healthy people and people who have difficulty smelling.

A powerful AI model called Deep Novel Mutation Search (DNMS) predicts virus mutations more accurately and efficiently than traditional, time-consuming lab experiments. Focused on the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, the model uses a specialized protein language model fine-tuned to understand the virus's specific ¡°language.¡± DNMS can predict mutations that cause small, functional changes ¨C crucial for viruses like SARS-CoV-2, which evolve through subtle adjustments to maintain function.
