By Marion Renault April 23, 2021Reprints Nancy Pu, a senior scientist in a lab that is focused on fighting Covid-19, sets up a polymerase chain reaction, or PCR, at Sorrento Therapeutics in San Diego, Calif. Standard Covid-19 testing involves the PCR technique, which searches for a few characteristic genes in a given sample. ARIANA DREHSLER/AFP via Getty Images Genomic sequencing is one of the best defenses against potentially deadlier or more transmissible variants of the coronavirus. It’s also expensive, slow, and currently almost nonexistent in the United States.

Mysterious ailment, mysterious relief: Vaccines help some Covid long haulers An estimated 10% to 30% of people who get Covid-19 suffer from lingering symptoms of the disease, or what’s known as “long Covid.” Judy Dodd, who lives in New York City, is one of them. She spent nearly a year plagued by headaches, shortness of breath, extreme fatigue and problems with her sense of smell, among other symptoms. She said she worried that this “slog through life” was going to be her new normal. Everything changed after she got her Covid vaccine. “I was like a new person. It was the craziest thing ever,” said Dodd, referring to how many of her health problems subsided significantly after her second shot.
