Rapid mutations cause doubts about long-term coronavirus immunity
A joint study by two top epidemic research institutes in China warns that the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) has gone through rapid mutations since January, and these genetic changes may allow it to spread for much longer than expected. In a paper posted in the pre-print server bioRxiv, researchers at Guangzhou Medical University and Fudan University stated that the coronavirus has acquired six major […]

Low sensitivity of coronavirus tests means patients may be getting INCORRECT results, warn experts
People who test negative for the coronavirus may not be out of the woods just yet. Despite the lack of scientific data regarding this, medical doctors in the U.S. and around the world are noticing a surge in false-negative results from coronavirus tests, which, together with undiagnosed asymptomatic cases, may be helping the deadly virus spread […]

New research reveals a way to stop Ebola virus from replicating
The Ebola virus disease (EVD) is a rare but highly contagious disease caused by Zaire ebolavirus, or simply the Ebola virus. Due to the high fatality rate associated with EVD, the Ebola virus is considered one of the scariest human pathogens today. Despite efforts to develop treatments, there is still no cure for EVD. But scientists […]

What happens when herpes viruses merge? For one, a supervirus
Experts have known that the herpes simplex viruses (HSV) responsible for oral and genital infections were capable of mixing their genetic material. But a recent study by the University of Washington (UW) warns that these pathogens recombine more often than predicted. The HSV-1 virus is classically responsible for oral herpes. Meanwhile, HSV-2 triggers genital herpes. They share the […]

Bacteria may travel around the world using “air bridges,” explaining how superbugs share genes
Bacteria do not need animal or human carriers to spread. A Rutgers-led study suggests that microbes take advantage of natural air currents and use them as bridges to travel from one remote location to another. The genes that encode antibiotic resistance in bacteria appear in many seemingly unrelated bacterial species. Even microbes separated by thousands of miles rely […]

Nearly 60 percent of astronauts have “space herpes”
Anyone who wants to go to space must know about the health risks involved in leaving the Earth’s atmosphere and gravity. A NASA-backed study warns that astronauts were much more prone to developing a case of herpes while in space and after coming home. Researchers found that seven percent of the astronauts who previously reported […]

High doses of vitamin C cured a patient of Zika virus – medical report
If you believed the stories promoted by the mainstream media, it would seem that the Zika virus was an unstoppable threat to humanity, poised to unleash a wave of birth defects and other health problems. Though the Zika scandal has been exposed, much fear remains — in large part thanks to governing agencies that thrive […]

Why do some viruses linger? Scientists are studying how viruses replicate different kinds of cells, some of which can hide inside the immune system
Some viral infections can continue their existence even though the body that they are trying to penetrate has already triggered an immune response. University of Pennsylvania researchers reveal that acute viral infection cells enriched with defective viral genomes are more likely to survive infection than cells with full-length viral genomes. Viral infections, such as parainfluenza, […]
