The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized the first over-the-counter combination COVID-19 and influenza test, the Healgen Rapid Check COVID-19/Flu A&B Antigen Test, outside of emergency use.
FDA has approved and granted emergency use authorization for updated mRNA COVID-19 vaccines (2024-2025 formula) to include a monovalent (single) component that corresponds to the Omicron variant KP.2 strain of SARSCoV-2.
Scientists at Harvard Medical School have developed a simple nasal spray, made of harmless ingredients, that can protect people against flu, colds and COVID-19 with near-100 percent success, and it costs just $25.
A newly discovered COVID strain known as XEC continues to spread rapidly across multiple countries, including the U.S.
A study has found measurements of C-reactive protein (CRP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and albumin are potentially predictive markers for disease severity in children hospitalized with COVID-19.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved and granted emergency use authorization for updated mRNA COVID-19 vaccines (2024-2025 formula) to include a monovalent (single) component that corresponds to the Omicron variant KP.2 strain of SARS-CoV-2.
A study by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis indicates next-generation vaccines that target a virus’s points of entry — the nose and mouth — may be able to contain the spread of respiratory infections and prevent transmission.
A Phase I clinical trial testing the safety of an experimental nasal vaccine, MPV/S-2P, that may provide enhanced breadth of protection against emerging variants of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is now enrolling healthy adults at three sites in the United States.
A Phase I/II study evaluating the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of Pfizer and BioNTech's mRNA-based combination vaccine candidates for influenza and COVID-19 among healthy adults 18 to 64 years of age show positive topline results.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced nine grant awards $1 million each for up to five years to support existing multidisciplinary Long COVID clinics across the country.
A Phase I/II study evaluating the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of Pfizer and BioNTech’s mRNA-based combination vaccine candidates for influenza and COVID-19 among healthy adults 18 to 64 years of age show positive topline results.
A Phase I randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose-escalation study in healthy adults, called CDX-CoV-001, has found Codagenix’s intranasal COVID-19 vaccine candidate, CoviLiv, showed the vaccine had a high seroresponse rate and induced mucosal immunity in volunteers not previously vaccinated or infected.
