New Strain of Covid 19, Demands More Research

  • There is no clear-cut evidence the new variant of coronavirus is able to transmit more easily, cause more serious symptoms or render the vaccine useless.
  • However, there are two reasons scientists are keeping a close eye on it.
  • The first is that levels of the variant are higher in places where cases are higher.
  • It is a warning sign, although it can be interpreted in two ways.
  • The virus could have mutated to spread more easily and is causing more infections.

According to a recent news article...

COVID19 Causing Long Term Genetic Changes After Recovery Shows Mice Study

According to a Science Alert article, scientists have created a first-of-its-kind mouse model of the COVID-19 disease, capable of revealing how the SARS-CoV-2 virus wreaks havoc on multiple organ systems in the animal’s body.

Understanding COVID Effect in Living Cells

While this experimental model doesn’t directly correspond to human coronavirus cases, it’s a breakthrough in other ways, giving us a potential test system for exploring how the deadly respiratory pathogen extends way beyond the...

Moderna Vaccine Antibodies Endure for at least Three Months

The Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, which was recently demonstrated to have 94 percent efficacy, causes the human immune system to produce potent antibodies that endure for at least three months, a study showed Thursday, says an article of CTV news.

Researcher’s Comments

Researchers at the National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), which co-developed the drug, studied the immune response of 34 adult participants, young and old, from the first stage of a clinical trial.

They said...

Immunity To The Coronavirus May Last Years, New Data Hint

  • It might last for years, even decades, which is the most hopeful answer yet to a question that has shadowed plans for widespread vaccination.
  • Eight months after infection, most people who have recovered still have enough immune cells to fend off the virus and prevent illness.
  • A slow rate of decline in the short term suggests that these cells may persist in the body for a very, very long time to come.

Blood samples from recovered patients suggest a powerful, long-lasting immune response,...

Face Masks Not a Weapon To Fight Covid-19, Reveals Study

  • The UK government had decided that masks could play a significant role in stopping Covid-19.
  • Masks were made mandatory in public places.
  • It was not backed by scientific data.
  • Are they really necessary, is a question that remained unanswered.

The scientific research evidence shows that wearing masks in the community does not significantly reduce the rates of infection, says an article published in The Spectator.

The Danmask-19 Trial

Unlike other studies looking at masks, the Danmask study was a...

Antibodies Prevail in 91% of Recovered People, Says Covid 19 Research

  • A Covid 19 antibody study on the pandemic in Iceland published in the New England Journal of Medicine offers some evidence to dispel such fears.
  • The researchers have looked at serum samples from 30,576 individuals, using six different types of antibody testing.
  • The paper’s central findings are that, out of 1,797 tested people who’d recovered from Covid, 91.1% produced detectable levels of antibodies.
  • It is also too early so say whether these antibody findings will hold over a longer time...
