Due to COVID-19, children with various immunodeficiency illnesses have a higher death risk. These children have mutations in genes that control the body’s immunological response to viral infections. Immunodeficiency disorders are malfunction of the immune system, resulting in infections that develop and recur more frequently, are more severe, and last longer than usual. According to […]
A British scientist stated that common cold and the flu was mistakenly identified as COVID-19 by faulty PCR tests
An unreliable PCR test that confused COVID-19 with the common cold and the flu should have been scrapped, according to a British scientist. Despite receiving a positive test result, many people may not have been infectious, professor Francois Balloux, director of the Genetics Institute at University College London, told The Mail. Following a positive LFD […]
Long Covid symptoms, the source of fatigue found
A recent study by researchers at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia, may open the door for research on the long Covid, one of the least recognised and most crippling effects of Sars-Cov-2 infection. The condition also develops months after coronavirus negativization, when the patient is no longer able to spread the illness but nonetheless experiences […]
According to recent animal studies, men with Omicron infections may respond better to the oral medication Molnupiravir than women
Research published in October 2021 in the BMJ showed that Molnupiravir reduced the risk of hospitalization by 50% in people at higher risk of severe COVID-19. While COVID-19 vaccines have been crucial in helping reduce the number of fatalities caused by SARS-CoV-2 infections, antivirals also played a part. One of those drugs is molnupiravir, which the Food & […]
Are those with allergic asthma less vulnerable to severe COVID?
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill researchers have discovered scientific explanations for how disease progresses and why a specific group of asthma sufferers is less prone to severe COVID. Scientists demonstrate how cells containing SARS-CoV-2 migrate deeply into the lungs, where severe COVID can establish itself, after detaching from the upper airway. Additionally, they […]
A common Asthma medication, Montelukast Sodium Hydrate, exhibits antiviral efficacy against SARS-CoV-2 Infection
Montelukast sodium hydrate was suggested by the researchers as a lead chemical for the development of powerful inhibitors to aid in the battle against SARS-CoV-2 infection. The severe coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic’s etiological agent, SARS-CoV-2, is an enveloped positive-strand RNA virus that is a member of the coronavirus family, which is a wide group of […]
