Rather than leveling inequality, as the Great Depression did, the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated inequalities around the world allowing some wealthy investors to benefit from…
Scientists using computer modeling to study SARS-CoV-2, the virus that caused the COVID-19 pandemic, have discovered the virus is most ideally adapted to infect human…
Nanodecoys made from human lung spheroid cells (LSCs) can bind to and neutralize SARS-CoV-2, promoting viral clearance and reducing lung injury in a macaque model…
Advanced uncertainty quantification model based on fluid dynamic simulations of weather effects corrects COVID-19 pandemic’s first wave data inaccuracies. Two COVID-19 pandemic curves emerged within…
COVID-19 has widened the life expectancy gap across racial groups and between the US and peer countries. U.S. life expectancy decreased by 1.87 years between…
New research presented at this year’s European Congress of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases (ECCMID), held online this year (9-12 July), shows that wearing a…
COVID-19 patients suffer from cognitive and behavioral problems two months after being discharged from hospital, a new study presented at the 7th Congress of the…
Scientists have developed a technology for cost-effective surveillance of the global spread of new SARS-CoV-2 variants. (SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19.) The researchers,…
