The pandemic spurred the diagnostics industry to consider aspects like scale, affordability, speed and portability of tests.

An effective nasal vaccine could stop the virus that causes COVID-19 right at its point of entry. But devising one that works has been a challenge for researchers.
Inflammation is a complicated and important part of how the immune system responds to threats to the body. But when the inflammatory response goes awry, it can lead to serious problems.
A new species of bacteria that doesn’t normally live in the gut may trigger an immune response so strong that it spreads to the joints.
Antiretroviral therapies for HIV, while extremely effective, need to be taken daily for life. Designing antibody treatments that need to be taken only once could improve compliance and reduce drug resistance.
When COVID-19 and the flu co-infect, it’s ‘flurona.’ But such cases are rare, and there are effective ways to protect yourself from both viruses.
Evidence is growing there are changes to your immune system that may put you at risk of other infectious diseases.
A new study finds that misdirected immune responses can persist for months in those who are suffering from long COVID-19.
Listeria causes serious illness and food recalls nearly every year.
To help people make informed decisions about ongoing COVID-19 risks, public health messaging needs to adapt as the pandemic evolves, just as immune systems adapt to new viruses and variants.
Your blood can hold a record of past illnesses. That information can reveal how many people have had a certain infection – like 58% of Americans having had COVID-19 by the end of February 2022.
Research suggests that too-frequent immunizations may lead to a phenomenon called “immune exhaustion.”
Evusheld is an antibody drug from AstraZeneca intended to help prevent COVID-19 infection for immunocompromised and other vulnerable patients.
Because COVID-19 is a relatively new virus, researchers still aren’t sure exactly how long vaccines and prior infections provide protection.
COVID-19 variants are the products of the evolution of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. They arise via mutations, but other forces also have roles to play in the generation and transmission of variants.
COVID-19 has taken away so much. An immunology researcher describes the good it may leave behind.
Infection seems to add a boost to immunity – but vaccination is still vital and breakthrough infections should be avoided as much as possible.
Some of the omicron variant’s unique properties – such as its ability to spread rapidly while causing milder COVID-19 infections – could usher in a new phase of the pandemic.
For a number of reasons, as time goes on vaccines become less effective. So how do researchers calculate how well vaccines are working?
Knowing when and how often to use rapid tests is key to getting an accurate picture of your COVID-19 status.
