SARS-CoV-2 infection protects against rechallenge in rhesus macaques

Science, 2020
Immunity from reinfection One of the many open questions about severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection is whether an individual who has cleared the virus can be infected a second time and get sick. Chandrashekar et al.

Comparison of antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 variants in Australian children

Nature Communications, 2022
Despite a rise in COVID-19 cases among children, there is limited understanding of the antibody responses mounted, compared to in adults. In this work, authors compare seroconversion rates and antibody responses in unvaccinated Australian children across

Effects of co-infection on the clinical outcomes of Clostridium difficile infection [PDF]

, 2020
Background: Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) is a spore-forming, Gram-positive rod that is known to be associated with antibiotic use. It is one of the leading causes of nosocomial diarrhea in the industrialized world and therefore warrants further ...
