Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria Following mRNA COVID-19 Booster Vaccination at a Military Academy
We present a retrospective case series of CSU following Moderna COVID-19 booster vaccinations at the US Naval Academy (USNA). Demographics, clinical features, and impact on readiness were evaluated. Forty-nine students from the USNA were evaluated for urticaria after their third COVID-19 booster vaccination. Seventeen individuals were diagnosed with CSU. The median age was 20 years and predominantly male; the median time interval between vaccination and the onset of urticaria was 11 days. Out of 13 referred to Allergy, 7 patients had CU index performed and 2 were positive. Four patients received a second booster vaccinatio...

Now in charge, House Republicans launch flurry of investigations
The new Republican majority in the U.S. House of Representatives is preparing to shine a bright light on science—and scientists. This week, it created two investigative panels that will scrutinize the country’s relationship with China and its response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Both committees are expected to grill many prominent scientists and federal research officials on their actions over the past several years. In approach and style, however, they are likely to be very different. The China panel, officially the Select Committee on Strategic Competition between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party,...

The need of an updated culture of "occupational" atopic hand dermatitis in children at the time of COVID-19
Acta Biomed. 2022 Dec 16;93(6):e2022324. doi: 10.23750/abm.v93i6.13135.ABSTRACTDuring the COVID-19 outbreak, handwashing emerged as an essential tool to prevent the spread of SARS-CoV-2 virus. It can put into practice using warm water and soap or, if not available, alcohol-based hand sanitizers (ABHS). Anyway, the use of warm water and soap is not always possible. On the contrary, ABHS are frequently used for their versatility, but can represent a risk factor for atopic dermatitis exacerbations in the pediatric age. At the same time, the Italian Ministry of Health established a school regulation, asking the students to per...
