Tweaked boosters rolled out for Americans 12 and older last month, doses modified to target today’s most common and contagious Omicron relative. While there wasn’t a big rush, federal health officials are urging that people seek the extra protection ahead of holiday gatherings. Now the Food and Drug Administration has given a green light for elementary school-age kids to get the updated booster doses, too—one made by Pfizer for 5- to 11-year-olds, and a vers...

Circulating immune cells with megakaryocyte signature in response to COVID-19 mRNA vaccination
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a life-threatening systemic disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Faced with this public health emergency, the scientific community developed several vaccines. Among them, BNT162b2 (Pfizer/BioNTec) and mRNA-1273 (Moderna) are the first broad-spectrum application of mRNA-based vaccine technology, and Ad26.COV2.S (Johnson and Johnson) is an Adenoviral vector-based vaccine, which have been granted emergency use authorization by Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

A Review of Extracorporeal Blood Purification Techniques for the Treatment of Critically Ill Coronavirus Disease 2019 Patients
In late 2019, a novel betacoronavirus, later termed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), was discovered in patients with an unknown respiratory illness in Wuhan, China. SARS-CoV-2 and the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), spread rapidly and resulted in the World Health Organization declaring a pandemic in March 2020. In a minority of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, severe illness develops characterized by a dysregulated immune response, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and multisystem organ failure. Despite the development of antiviral and multiple...

Racial Disparities Between C-Reactive Protein and COVID-19 In-Hospital Outcomes
This study shows that there are racial differences in the acute inflammatory response to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID- 19). They also found that Blacks hospitalized for COVID-19 were less likely to receive corticosteroids and remdesivir before Food and Drug Administration (FDA) emergency use of remdesivir and less likely to be enrolled in clinical trials.

Miniaturized Real-Time PCR systems for SARS-CoV-2 detection at the Point-of-Care
Clin Chim Acta. 2022 Sep 17:S0009-8981(22)01304-3. doi: 10.1016/j.cca.2022.09.014. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOver the past two years, SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus 2) infection has spread globally causing multi-organ disease and severely impacting the healthcare systems of all countries. Accordingly, the development of easy-to-access diagnostic devices has become essential to limit the effect of the virus worldwide. Real-Time PCR is considered the gold standard to identify SARS-CoV-2 infection due to high sensitivity, affordability, and capacity to detect low viral loads at early disease sta...
