Scientists at Yale say long COVID is part of a “long-established family of post-acute infection syndromes.” The biggest challenge is understanding its “underlying pathobiology.” They were “surprised” how often children are affected, noting kids are also vulnerable to “long-term effects.”

With the rise of drug-resistant superbugs, we’re losing the defenses that protect us from microbes. In @financialtimes.com, I share how we can rebuild them. The problem isn’t scientific complexity—it’s political and economic barriers.
The world is losing immunity to superbugs, but we can rebuild it
The evidence base for reversing drug resistance is there: measure results, learn from failures and stay the course

Korean study finds how COVID-19 affects memory, suggests a possible treatment.
Korean researchers found the COVID S1 spike protein disrupts nerve cells, harming memory and causing anxiety in mice. Metformin restored nerve function and reduced toxic proteins, suggesting a possible treatment.

It’s only July and measles cases in the U.S. are already higher than in any year since 1992. When public health programs are cut and vaccination rates decline, more children get sick and die. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Measles cases in the U.S. are at their highest in more than three decades. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the U.S. has 1,288 cases since the beginning of the year.
