Johnson & Johnson's COVID-19 vaccine, although once holding promising potential, has officially reached the end of its journey in the United States. Unlike the mRNA vaccines developed by Pfizer and Moderna, J&J's adenovirus-based vaccine failed to gain the same level of popularity.

In the spring of 2020, the implementation of lockdown measures had only saved around 1,700 lives in England and Wales, according to a new comprehensive study. The research conducted by scientists from Johns Hopkins University and Lund University delved into nearly 20,000 studies exploring the various measures taken worldwide to combat Covid-19.

New research examined the link between COVID-19 vaccines and post-vaccination neurologic events, such as stroke and seizure. The researchers wanted to determine if the vaccines cause these neurologic events, or if they are unrelated.

While no longer categorized as a global health emergency, Covid continues to be a subject of intense scientific scrutiny. Researchers are still dedicated to unraveling the remaining mysteries surrounding the virus. One such mystery is whether ventilators are useful or harmful to severe Covid patients.

And still get taken out by that thing you never saw coming. On a Zoom get-together recently, my dear buddy Miryam was not just miserable because she had Covid (like that’s not enough, amiright?), but also because she’d been so careful.

Whenever I watch horror ghost movies, I always thought the characters may have schizophrenia (schizo). If Covid-19 occurred a generation or two earlier, I might have thought that the schizo character‘s mother caught Covid during pregnancy.

Scientists have been digging into a health mystery known as long COVID. This term refers to a bunch of health problems some people experience for months or even years after catching COVID-19.

Six months after China loosened what were some of the world's most stringent Covid-19 control measures, the country is witnessing a surge in cases, a stark contrast to the previous scenario where each case was meticulously tracked and quarantined. The Chinese government's relaxation of its previous Covid-19 restrictions coincides with an increase in infection rates that could potentially reach as high as 65 million cases per week by June's end, according to a recent medical conference.

A new study has just been published that shows that children who have contracted COVID-19 are at a much higher risk of developing type 1 diabetes. Here is just one more reason to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

After a three-year run, UC San Diego called for an end to its COVID-19 response initiative, the “Return to Learn” program. In an email from the Office of the Chancellor, the University detailed that as of May 11, remnants of the program’s operations will be redirected to the new Environment, Health, and Safety department's COVID-19 webpage, alongside up-to-date information on COVID-19. This decision was based on the federal government’s end to the COVID-19 public health emergency on May 11.

I just need to get this off my chest. I have two children who are 18 months apart. Unfortunately, we don’t have any family nearby to help out, and even when my parents visit, they don’t offer much assistance with the kids.

Welp, it was nice while it lasted. For some of us, remote work was our idea of what life should be. That said, yes, we're sure that for anyone attempting to negotiate multi-million dollar deals or solve complex technological fails while feeding Cheerios to the toddler and dodging hairballs from Mister Beaumont, getting back to the office may be the better option.

There has been a lot written about COVID-19 beinglinked to type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and another paper discusses the risk of diabetes after a long COVID-19 infection. This is convincing evidence that we should consider diabetes to be one of the long COVID sequelae and that the COVID-19 vaccines reduce the risk of diabetes.

The use of face masks for the prevention of the spread of COVID-19 was a large subject of both scientific and political discussion during the nearly three years of the pandemic. People seem to choose to wear their masks as both medical and political statements. I know I did.

The Trumbull County Animal Welfare League (AWL) has witnessed a significant rise in the number of animals entering its shelter due to humane investigations from 2020 through 2022. The impact of the coronavirus pandemic extended beyond families, affecting dogs, cats, and other pets in Trumbull County, according to Lorilyn Shandor, CEO of the league.

It seems odd to ask this question at this point. But maybe it’s about time to ask again, given that it has been over three years since we discovered Covid-19 in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. So, maybe it’s about time to re-visit what Covid-19 truly is and what Covid-19 means to us.
