Medicine & TechnologyScientists in Japan are working on a coronavirus-detecting mask that works as a person wears it, identifying infections that might otherwise have been missed.
Researchers discovered that the COVID-19 antibody levels are higher for women and children, compared to men and people whose age is above 65 years old.
Chinese authorities recently authorized the compassionate use of a neutralizing antibody treatment called DXP-604, for COVID-19 patients in Beijing, China.
Recent research analyzing blood donation samples since July 2020 shows that as of May 2021, 4 out of 5 American adults over the age of 16 have developed antibodies via infection or vaccine.
Scientists identified antibodies detected from those who already recovered that could pave the way for developing a pan-COVID vaccine, which can neutralize different viruses.
A new study on COVID-19 suggests that antibodies against the coronavirus are active 9 months in people after being infected. Strong evidence of the antibody research were recorded from Vo, a town in Italy that had the most positive cases at the early surge of the pandemic.
A new study finding recently offered the potential of developing drugs for the activation of a pathway to improve the efficacy of vaccines, including COVID-19 vaccines.
Cases of pet owners transmitting COVID-19 infection to their dog or cat have been documented previously although are considered to be an insignificant risk to public health.
Researchers recently analyzed more than a million SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences, an analysis that resulted in the detection of a new COVID-19 Mexican variant spreading not just in Mexico but is also found in Europe.
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine found that mild cases of COVID-19 still have immune cells in their bodies pumping out antibodies against the virus months after recovering.
Researchers recently developed an Ebola virus vaccine that has shown promise in rabbits and mice. Specifically, what the scientists developed is a new nanoparticle-based shot for protection against the virus.
