In the long battle to create an effective HIV vaccine, scientists have made a major leap forward. A new study shows that a series of vaccines can coax the immune system to produce powerful antibodies capable of blocking a wide range of HIV strains-including those that are typically the hardest to stop. Published in Immunity … Read more

It’s been five years since COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic. As SARS-CoV-2 shifts to endemic status, questions about its future evolution remain. New variants of the virus will likely emerge, driven by positive selection for traits such as increased transmissibility, longer infection duration and the ability to evade immune defenses. These changes could allow … Read more

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the urgent need for effective therapeutic agents against SARS-CoV-2. Although vaccines helped control the spread of the virus, the emergence of new variants continues to challenge global health efforts. Small-molecule inhibitors targeting viral proteins could serve as an effective alternative for controlling the spread of COVID-19 at both individual and community … Read more
Why are some children devastated by mysterious post-COVID inflammation? Scientists uncover how a ‘silent’ virus awakens – and a promising path to stop it. Study: TGFβ links EBV to multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children.

A study from the prestigious Yale University School of Medicine has described the chronic symptoms that developed and persisted for some individuals soon after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine as a previously-unrecognised condition they named post-vaccination syndrome (PVS). The new study, a preprint (which means it has not yet been peer-reviewed) says the symptoms include excessive … Read more
