ESWI Airborne: Burden of Disease
Burden of disease - A focus on acute respiratory viruses in older adults
Why should older adults be particularly careful of acute respiratory viruses? What are risk factors for adverse outcomes? Why is RSV typically under-diagnosed in adults compared with flu and what are some of the long-term impacts?

ESWI Airborne: Burden of Disease
Burden of disease - The economic and societal impact of acute respiratory viruses
The shocking numbers of babies and children who die, or who are in need of care, coupled with the rising number of undiagnosed older adults puts a significant burden from RSV on health systems.
Pandemic Preparedness. How will the international accord help respond to unforeseen shocks?
Science|Business organised a roundtable discussion with international experts -representing industry, academia, public health bodies, think tanks, government officials and research organisations- to discuss how to prepare for future pandemics.
Diagnosis of type 1 diabetes after SARS-CoV-2 infection: Researchers find possible correlation
Researchers at Helmholtz Munich and TU Dresden, in cooperation with the Kassenärztliche Vereinigung Bayern, have now investigated whether there is a temporal association between infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the development of type 1 diabetes.
Second monovalent SARS-CoV-2 mRNA booster restores Omicron-specific neutralizing activity in both nursing home residents and health care workers
Antibody levels and neutralizing activity progressively increased with each booster but subsequently waned over 3-6 months.
The impact of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on global influenza surveillance: Insights from 18 National Influenza Centers based on a survey conducted between November 2021 and March 2022
National Influenza Centers have played a crucial role in the surveillance of SARS-CoV-2. The FluCov project, covering 22 countries, was initiated to monitor the impact of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on influenza activity.

Prevention of long COVID: progress and challenges
Long COVID—the umbrella term that encompasses the post-acute and long-term sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection—can be profoundly disabling and might affect people for a lifetime.
COVID-19 evolving variants and how to stay safe
Why are we seeing a rising number of COVID-19 cases in some parts of the world? How is the SARS CoV 2 virus evolving? What do Governments and the public need to do to live with COVID-19 safely? Dr Maria Van Kerkhove explains in WHO's Science in 5.
Algorithm for Optimised mRNA Design Improves Stability and Immunogenicity
mRNA vaccines are being used to contain COVID-19, but still suffer from the critical limitation of mRNA instability and degradation, which is a major obstacle in the storage, distribution, and efficacy of the vaccine products.
