Meet the Black female scientist at the forefront of COVID-19 vaccine development – CBS News

When President Donald Trump paid a visit to the National Institutes of Health last March, the leads at the vaccine research center explained their life-saving mission. The key to that mission was a 34-year-old doctor named Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett. "I was just there telling the task force about the work that we've been doing," Corbett told "CBS This Morning: Saturday" co-host Michelle Miller. Two weeks after the visit, Corbett's team began the first stage of clinical trials. She said they took a lot of the knowledge they have gained in the last six years and applied it to a vaccine platform in collaboration with Moderna. The vaccine rolled out 10 months later. "The vaccine teaches the body how to fend off a virus, because it teaches the body how to look for the virus by basically just sho...

That brotherhood bond is hard to break. Following several reports of Prince William and Prince Harry being at odds, the brothers have apparently been working on their long-distance relationship following Harry’s Megxit move to California with wife Meghan Markle and son Archie. “There were phone and video calls over the Christmas and New Year holiday and the Sussexes sent presents to the Cambridges and vice versa,” royal expert Katie Nicholl told ET. “It was an opportunity in an otherwise very busy and chaotic year for both of the families to come together and connect, albeit virtually.” The pair have come a long way, as just last year, William reportedly refused to break bread with his sibling during their infamous Sandringham Summit, where the whole fa...

Six months on, most COVID patients still have at least 1 symptom – Al Jazeera English

More than three-quarters of people hospitalised with COVID-19 still suffered from at least one symptom after six months, according to a new study. The research, which was published on Saturday in the Lancet medical journal, involved hundreds of patients in the Chinese city of Wuhan, where the new coronavirus was first detected. It found that fatigue or muscle weakness were the most common symptoms, while people also reported sleeping difficulties. Scientists said the study – among the few to trace the long-term symptoms of COVID-19 – shows the need for further investigation into lingering coronavirus effects. “Because COVID-19 is such a new disease, we are only beginning to understand some of its long-term effects on patients’ health,” said lead author Bin C...

CDC refutes report of new highly contagious COVID-19 strain in US – New York Post

There is no highly contagious new variant of the coronavirus in the US despite reports that a new strain of the deadly bug was circulating here. Officials said reports that suggested a new mutation were based on speculative statements made by Dr. Deborah Birx of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, but are not accurate, the New York Times reported Saturday. The rumor came from a meeting during which Birx discussed graphs that showed the sharp increase in the virus’ spread across the country. She theorized that a new, more transmissible variant originating in this country might explain the rapidly escalating number of cases, the way a highly-contagious new variant found in the UK did in Britain. Her hypothesis made it into a weekly report sent to state ...
