REUTERS/Brendan McDermid(Reuters) – The United States has administered 359,623,380 doses of COVID-19 vaccines in the country as of Thursday morning and distributed 422,175,735 doses, the U.S. […] A striking new study examines how far antibodies elicited by vaccines against the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), or by natural infection, can neutralize the closely related bat coronavirus (CoV) RaTG13. The study, available as a preprint on the bioRxiv* server, shows that the bat CoV is, unexpectedly, neutralized more efficiently by antisera raised by SARS-CoV-2 than the […] The Better Care Fund (BCF) has been increased this year to continue driving integration between the health and social care system and support local recovery from the pandemic. More than £6.9 billion has been committed to help people to stay at home and live independently as far as possible, to minimise the time spent in hospital, and to help them […] Millions of people across the African continent are at risk of contracting COVID-19 because of a lack of the most basic public health tools to protect themselves—including the essentials of soap and water. These measures—known as non-pharmacological public health interventions (NPIs), and including physical distancing or isolation at home to prevent transmission—are among the simplest and least expensive methods to […] This Morning: Dr Chris discusses rise in heart disease deaths We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

And those in the lowest wealth groups, they found, had up to twice the relative risk of developing depression than those in the highest wealth quintiles, as hearing loss disproportionally affected their quality of life. Published in Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric […] The currently deployed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines are either mRNA or adenovirus vector-based, though several others have been or are in development. Several whole-virion inactivated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines have demonstrated good efficacy in early clinical trials, particularly in combination with an aluminum adjuvant (a substance that gives a stronger immune response), which is more […] The pandemic has shown us the extraordinary potential of digital health to fight global health inequalities by providing expanded access to healthcare: as well as by better informing our responses to health crises. Tools such as wearable monitoring devices, video consultations, and even chat-bots driven by AI can provide care from a distance and often cost less than a face-to-face […] With more than half the country in lockdown and many of the social support systems we rely on having been put on hold, it’s no wonder people are feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. For some, such feelings may ultimately culminate in burnout. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, burnout was, for the most part, considered a work-related issue. But in our research, we […] Where are all the Teen Wolf fans at? Are y'all OK? I ask because Dylan O'Brien is fully a platinum blond now, and nobody seems to be handling it very well (myself included). That's right: the actor who's always been known for that dark, often disheveled hair and what was infamously known to Tumblr as his "glass of whiskey eyes" […]
