The COVID-19 pandemic proved the great usefulness of lateral flow tests as self- and rapid tests. The rapid expansion of this field requires the design and validation of novel, affordable, and versatile technologies for the easy fabrication of a

In the last 50 years, nucleoside analogs have been introduced to drug therapy as antivirals for different types of cancer due to their interference in cellular proliferation. Among the first line of nucleoside treatment drugs, ribavirin (RBV) is a

We evaluated the performance of 12 lateral flow devices (LFDs) by assessing their analytical sensitivity for SARS-Cov-2 variant BA.2.86. Kits from ACON, Orient Gene, Xiamen Biotime, Getein and SureScreen detected variant BA.2.86 to sufficient

Data on the relationship between electronic cigarettes (ECs) and SARS-CoV-2 infection are limited and contradictory. Our objectives were to investigate the impact of EC aerosols on SARS-CoV-2 infection of human bronchial epithelial cells and identify

Objectives: We describe our co-design process aimed at supporting the reintegration of essential care partners into long-term care homes during the COVID-19 pandemic.Methods: More specifically, using a co-design process, we describe the pre-design

Airborne transmission of infectious (viable) SARS-CoV-2 is increasingly accepted as the primary manner by which the virus is spread from person to person. Risk of exposure to airborne virus is higher in enclosed and poorly ventilated spaces. We

The COVID-19 outbreak fueled unprecedented public health efforts to mitigate the spread of infection, including rapid provision of non-congregate housing to people experiencing homelessness. People on community supervision (criminal probation or

CONCLUSION: Our study confirms that denosumab may be safely continued in COVID-19 patients. RANK/RANKL inhibition seems associated with a reduced incidence of symptomatic COVID-19, particularly among the elderly.

CONCLUSION: A communication guide with tips for reconnecting could be a valuable tool to empower young people and promote social connection.

CONCLUSIONS: The study's findings specified the devastating consequences of second wave of COVID-19 in a resource-limited setting. Focus on improving the health system and health facilities' capacity is warranted to anticipate all possibilities of
