CONCLUSIONS: Specificity and negative predictive value were high in an asymptomatic population of care home staff indicating this test is an effective tool for identifying cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection during periods of high prevalence where

This study used data from the annual fellowship survey over 7 academic years (2014-15 to 2020-21) to describe the trends in surgical experience for pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus fellows and to quantify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on

MAIN RESULTS: Technology transfer can take place at large events, as long as safety protocols are strictly enforced. It is important to disseminate, at these events, the concepts of the Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI). Implications for

Introduction: A hypothetical risk of SARS-CoV-2 airborne transmission through nebulization was suggested based on a potential environmental contamination by the fugitive aerosol emitted in the environment during the procedure. The aim of this study

We previously presented day 29 interim safety and immunogenicity results from a phase 2/3 study (NCT04927065) comparing the Omicron-BA.1-containing bivalent vaccine mRNA-1273.214 (50-µg) to the 50-µg mRNA-1273 booster in adults who previously

Due to poor management and the lack of environmental awareness, lots of masks (an emerging form of plastic pollution) are discarded into the environment during the COVID-19, thereby jeopardizing the health of humans and the environment. Our study

CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that political ideologies have influenced COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in Brazilian municipalities, affecting communities inequitably. The politicization of vaccines is a new challenge for vaccine programs. Strategies

The main protease (Mpro) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a well-characterized target for antiviral drug discovery. To date, most antiviral drug discovery efforts have focused on the S4-S1' pocket of Mpro; however

While the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted many aspects of healthcare, including routine blood donations, the impact of COVID-19 on the donation of source plasma critical to many aspects of patient care, including apheresis procedures, has been more

CONCLUSIONS: The total rates of ROSC and CPR-discharge survival were respectively 15.3% and 3.8% among all participants. The rates of ROSC and CPR to discharge survival among patients without COVID-19 are respectively 2.26 and 2.53 times more than
