Politicians, scientists spar over alleged NIH cover-up using COVID-19 origin paper
Two scientists who are coauthors of a 3-year-old article on the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic faced down Republican lawmakers today in what might be the most in-depth discussion ever of a scientific paper in the halls of the U.S. Congress. At a House subcommittee hearing , the Republicans asserted that top officials at the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) prompted the researchers to write the paper to try and “kill” the theory that SARS-CoV-2 leaked from a laboratory in Wuhan, China. The scientists, two of its five co-authors, flatly rejected the allegation. And as the hearing extended over 3 hours, com...

The Role of Quality Improvement in Allergy Practices
Over the past three years, Allergy/Immunology practices have faced unprecedented challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This forced rapid and significant changes to the manner in which patient care was delivered and demonstrated adaptability, resiliency, and fortitude among clinicians.1 Unfortunately, it also contributed to widespread burnout, stress, and fatigue. There are many lessons to learn from the past few years and undoubtedly the strength of our specialty and powerful impact we have on our patients ’ lives will remain at the forefront of our mission moving forward.

Lessons from the IMPAACT of coronavirus disease 2019 public health restrictions on food allergy-associated anxiety
Generalized anxiety disorder is among the most common mental health disorder and for which an instrument, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale (GAD-7), has been available to assess this condition for nearly 2 decades.1 During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, symptoms associated with generalized anxiety disorder have broadly increased, albeit with a disproportionately higher risk among mothers, parents aged 18 to 44 years, those with household incomes less than $100,000 Canadian, or those with certain preexisting mental health conditions, including anxiety.

Current vaccine strategies against SARS-CoV-2: Promises and challenges
In the years since the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic began and spread across the globe, lessons have been learned about the challenges and opportunities that a pandemic brings to humankind. Researchers have produced many vaccines at unprecedented speed to protect people, but they have also been cognizant of the challenges presented by a new and unexpected infectious disease. The scope of this review is to examine the path of vaccine discovery so far and identify potential targets.

Telemedicine Lessons Learned During the COVID-19 Pandemic
AbstractPurpose of ReviewPrior to the SARS-CoV-2 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, access and utilization of telemedicine in the USA was negligeable, with very little interest from both the public and healthcare sectors. Since that time, telemedicine technology and services have undergone explosive growth and investment and are poised to change the way healthcare is delivered now and in the future. But has telemedicine truly changed the way healthcare is delivered or is it merely a temporary fix for a temporary pandemic?Recent FindingsThis global public health emergency has exposed vulnerabilities in our healthcare sy...

Coronavirus disease 2019 in patients with inborn errors of immunity: lessons learned
Purpose of review The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has caused extreme concern for patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEIs). In the first 6  months of the pandemic, the case fatality rate among patients with IEIs resembled that of the general population (9%). This review aims at summarizing what we have learned about the course and outcome of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in patients with different IEIs and what this can potentially teach us about the immune mechanisms that could confer protection or predisposition to severe disease. Recent findings A total o...

COVID-19 and X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) – insights from a monogenic antibody deficiency
Purpose of review The clinical outcomes from COVID-19 in monogenic causes of predominant antibody deficiency have pivotal implications for our understanding of the antiviral contribution of humoral immunity. This review summarizes the lessons learned from COVID-19 infection in X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) due to genetic defects in Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK). Recent findings Key molecular pathways underlying the development of severe COVID-19 are emerging, highlighting the possible contribution of BTK to hyperinflammation. SARS-CoV-2 specific T-cell responses and complement activation appear insufficient...
