The study, which was posted on a preprint website and has not yet undergone peer review, showed that the lungs of older individuals are less susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 and flu virus replication compared to the young.
)
The study reveals blood group A cells were more likely to be infected with SARS-CoV-2 when compared with blood group O cells.
)
The study reveals that Covid-19 causes neurons to undergo a cell fusion process, which has not been seen before.
)
During the last four months, more than 1900 Omicron sub-variants have been detected among the samples analysed by the Indian SARS-CoV-2 Genomics Consortium across the country.

Covid-like VIRUS found in Russian BATS can INFECT humans
The new virus has been discovered by US researchers
The two viruses have been identified as Khosta-1 and Khosta-2
The researchers found while Khosta-1 didn’t pose much threat to humans, Khosta-2 demonstrated some troubling traits
)
Scientists have developed a new mechanism to inactivate the Covid-19 virus
They have developed the technique to block its entry into cells
This new mechanism has been developed by researchers from the CSIR Institute of Microbial Technology

SARS-CoV-2 infection induced severe bone loss from 20 per cent to 50 per cent
Pathological bone loss may be an important but neglected complication
)
The yet-to-be peer-reviewed study, posted recently on the preprint repository bioRxiv, also found neutralising antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in one of the Omicron-infected deer, suggesting that, like humans, these animals can be reinfected with the virus.
)
NeoCov is found in a population of bats in South Africa and to date, spreads exclusively among these animals
Researchers say NeoCov may pose a threat to humans in the future if it mutates further
Scientists further noted that infection with NeoCov could not be cross-neutralised by antibodies targeting SARS-CoV-2 or MERS-CoV
)
According to Dr Mike Ryan, WHO's director of emergency programmes, the virus will continue to evolve before it settles into a pattern.
)
According to experts, about 20 symptoms of Omicron have been reported.

It can happen within three months of recovery
)
A study claimed coronavirus epidemic first hit over 21,000 years ago
The study was published in the journal Current Biology
)
miRNAs could effectively inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication by directly targeting the S protein
Continuous physical exercise could boost miRNA immunity against SARS-CoV-2
)
Thymoquinone, an active ingredient in Kalonji can stick to the COVID-19 virus spike protein and stop the virus from causing a lung infection
Thymoquinone can moderate the immune system in a good way, by preventing pro-inflammation chemicals such as interleukins from being released
It may also block the 'cytokine' storm that affects seriously ill patients who are hospitalised with COVID-19
)
The US has in the past two weeks seen a 148 percent rise in new infections, while hospitalizations have surged by 73 percent
Health officials are concerned as many schools across the country are set to open, increasing the risk of children being infected
)
During the post-COVID-19 recovery, people must consume a nutritious diet along with natural edible sources of vitamins and iron
Iron deficiency can further accelerate hair loss, and consumption of a protein rich and balanced diet can itself be a solution for reducing temporarily witnessed hair fall
)
A dose of tamibarotene powder delivered by intratracheal administration significantly reduced virus titer and viral RNA load of SARS-CoV-2 in the hamsters' lungs
Inhaled powder formulation of broad-spectrum antiviral drugs can be used on an outpatient basis due to the ease of (self-)administration as prevention and treatment for respiratory viral infections
