Durch winzige Schwebeteilchen stecken sich in geschlossenen Räumen mehr Menschen mit Covid-19 an als bislang angenommen, vermuten US-Forscher. Das könnte auch Folgen für Restaurants und Cafés haben.
Inequality made historical pandemics 'worse than they had to be'.
The hunt is on for better ways to collect and search pandemic studies
A deluge of poor quality research is sabotaging an effective evidence based response.
Studies of social networks show that opposition to vaccines is small but far-reaching - and growing.
An immunization shot is still in development, but debate over who gets priority has already begun.
The man behind Trump's favorite unproven treatment has made a great career assailing orthodoxy. His claim of a 100 percent cure rate shocked scientists around the world.
Scottish researchers have taken aim at a study reporting surprising findings on COVID-19 - but what it took to correct the record is all too familiar.
Machine-learning models trained on normal behavior are showing cracks —forcing humans to step in to set them straight.
Virologist Peter Piot, director of the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, fell ill with COVID-19 in mid-March.
A public-private partnership and platform for harmonized clinical trials aims to accelerate licensure and distribution.
In the video Plandemic, the former chronic fatigue syndrome researcher makes countless unsubstantiated claims and accusations.
At the heart of the decision was a process that was - as is often in the case in clinical trials - by turns secretive and bureaucratic.
Officials are under pressure to restart the economy, but many states are moving too quickly, researchers say. The costs may be measured in lost lives.
Academic research is fundamental to learn more about the nature of the coronavirus.
It is testament to the machinery of science that so much has been learned about covid-19 so rapidly. Since January the number of publications has been doubling every 14 days, reaching 1,363 in the past week alone. They have covered everything from the genetics of the virus that causes the disease to computer models of its spread and the scope for vaccines and treatments. What explains the speed? Much as in other areas of life, covid-19 has burnt away encrusted traditions.
Government scientific advisers are furious at what they see as an attempt to censor their advice on government proposals during the Covid-19 lockdown by heavily redacting an official report before it was released to the public.
Trump is shrugging off warnings by scientists that the easing restrictions taking place across the country could cause tens of thousands of death.
We have developed an analysis pipeline to facilitate real-time mutation tracking in SARS-CoV-2, focusing initially on the Spike (S) protein because it mediates infection of human cells and is the target of most vaccine strategies and antibody-based therapeutics.
A mutation in the novel coronavirus has led to a new strain viewed as more contagious than the virus that emerged from China, according to a new study.
Try to reach it without a vaccine, and millions will die.
All your questions about the pandemic, answered. Sort of.
Pandemics like COVID-19 call into question the benefit of news embargoes, but do reporters use the additional time to digest findings and consult experts unrelated to the study?
