Study assesses global discrepancies in COVID-19 management guidelines across WHO member states, revealing that many national guidelines do not fully align with WHO recommendations, especially in lower-resource countries.
A recent study in eClinicalMedicine assesses whether individuals with diabetes are more susceptible to developing long COVID, analyzing a UK cohort to explore the prolonged impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in this population.
Following consultation with public health agencies and experts, the World Health Organization (WHO) publishes a global technical consultation report introducing updated terminology for pathogens that transmit through the air.
Study finds that receiving an annual COVID-19 vaccine is clinically and economically beneficial for individuals, regardless of insurance status, offering savings by reducing the likelihood of infection and its associated costs.
Study introduces Reverse Vaccine Development as a strategic approach to identify correlates of protection early in vaccine development against antimicrobial-resistant pathogens, aiming to mitigate risks such as significant phase-III clinical trial failures.
Regular physical activity significantly diminishes mental and neurological symptoms in young women during and two years after COVID-19 infection, with higher activity levels correlating with fewer symptoms and reduced reinfection rates.
Study found that the antiviral molnupiravir affects the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in immunocompromised patients, suggesting its use modifies viral mutation patterns and may impact viral evolution.
