Researchers develop a non-needle, nanofiber vaccine platform that could change the way we get vaccinated forever.

Some COVID-19 survivors are still sick months later. Doctors want to learn why and what they can do

A new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that children could be asymptomatic but are likely to be spreaders of the virus. Researchers and scientists worldwide are still puzzled about why it seemed that the virus was not infecting children. Usually, for a respiratory disease like COVID-19, children are more likely to be quickly infected.

There are still many things that remain a mystery about COVID-19 and how many organs it affects. There are many reports about the effect of the virus on the heart, lungs, and respiratory systems, but there is growing evidence that it affects the brain too.

Lives likely could've been saved if the White House had focused on people rather than politics when the pandemic began, Vanity Fair reports.

People are power scrubbing their way to a false sense of security.

With most of the world in lockdown, the "seismic noise" produced by humans has reduced by up to 50 percent.

As we try to understand the role of architecture post-pandemic, we have to first better understand the ways we inhabit buildings and move through space.

Doctors in France have described what they said was the first confirmed case of a newborn infected in the womb with COVID-19 by the mother. The baby boy, born in March, suffered brain swelling and neurological symptoms linked to COVID-19 in adults, but has since recovered.

Israeli professor makes breakthrough that could render COVID-19 no more dangerous than a common cold, a drug already on the market called Fenofibrate

Scientists around the world are currently working feverishly to develop an effective vaccine against COVID-19 to curb the global pandemic that has claimed nearly 600,000 human lives worldwide (and counting). Meanwhile, a collaboration between scientists at McMaster University, the University of Sydney, and historians at the Mütter Museum in Philadelphia, are looking to the past for potential clues. They have analyzed the genome of fragments of the smallpox virus used in vaccines during the Civil War, according to a new paper published in the journal Genome Biology.

A study by UCLA researchers shows that in people with mild cases of COVID-19, antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 — the virus that causes the disease — drop sharply over the first three months after infection, decreasing by roughly half every 73 days. If sustained at that rate, the antibodies would disappear within about a year.

Some Vikings may have died from now-extinct strains of one of humankind’s deadliest pathogens: smallpox. Researchers collected DNA from viruses in the remains of northern Europeans living during the Viking Age, some of whom were likely Vikings themselves, and found that they were infected with extinct but related versions of the variola virus that causes smallpox, the team reports in the July 24 Science. The new finding pushes back the proven record of smallpox infecting people by almost 1,000 years, to the year 603.

Dining out right now will come with certain risks. Here’s what you can do to keep yourself and others around you safe.

President Jair Bolsonaro has refused to take the coronavirus pandemic seriously, even though more than 17,500 Brazilians have already died from the virus. And the number of cases continues to grow exponentially.

Raul Razo and three buddies were knocking out their daily situps and pushups in their 72-man tank at the Harris County Jail in late March when they were overcome. All four were gasping for air. “Uno por uno. Uno por uno,” Razo told his wife in a phone call punctuated by dry coughs. One by one they’d abandoned their workout and slogged off to their bunks.

To better understand how social environments shape human health, a team of researchers dug into the literature, analyzing studies on humans and animals.

It’s responsible for infecting more than five million across the world and now we can see exactly what it looks like in minute detail. Scientists and CGI specialists at Visual Science have created the most scientifically accurate model of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and experts have been blown away by the “striking” precision.

World Health Organization officials have renewed praise for China in response to the COVID-19 outbreak, citing its “openness” to the prospect of scientific inquiries involving foreign experts into the origins of the novel coronavirus.

Nearly 1 in 7 people in New York who were randomly tested for coronavirus antibodies turned out to have them, Governor Andrew Cuomo announced today (April 23). In New York City, the number is even higher: About 1 in 5 people tested positive for antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. If those early results translate to the rest of the New York population, that would mean about 2.7 million people across the state would have been infected.
