Antibodies detected in white-tailed deer exposed to COVID-19 in 4 states, study says

recent study conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) found evidence of COVID-19 exposure in white-tailed deer in four different states. Of the 385 samples that were collected, 40% came back positive for COVID-19 antibodies, according to the study. "Antibodies are the result of an immune response to infection with a pathogen, and their presence does not necessarily suggest a current infection.

Studies detail COVID childbirth, breastmilk vaccine antibodies

In line with previous research, two studies published today in JAMA Network Open suggested that pregnant women infected with COVID-19 are more likely to have negative outcomes including death, and that vaccine-produced SARS-CoV-2 antibodies are present in breastmilk. Both implications help support the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's announcement today that all pregnant people, or those thinking of becoming pregnant, should get vaccinated.

LOS ANGELES - Researchers from the National Institutes of Health say they have found evidence that people who have been previously infected by the novel coronavirus appear to be protected against reinfection, though the extent to which that protection holds up against emerging variants remains unclear. "The data from this study suggest that people who have a positive result from a commercial antibody test appear to have substantial immunity to SARS-CoV-2, which means they may be at lower risk for future infection," said Dr.

Pfizer says lab test indicates diminished antibody response by its COVID-19 vaccine to South Africa variant

NEW YORK - A laboratory study from Pfizer Inc/BioNTech suggests that the company’s current COVID-19 vaccine may generate a significantly less robust antibody response against the South Africa variant of the coronavirus. According to the in vitro study published in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), lab results "indicated a reduction in neutralization," of the virus."This finding is consistent with recent reports of the neutralization of variant SARS-CoV-2," Pfizer wrote in a news release published Wednesday.

COVID-19 patients drop rapidly during the weeks after their bodies have cleared the novel coronavirus, and symptoms have subsided, according to a study.In the absence of approved, effective treatments for COVID-19, some hospitals have been treating patients with severe symptoms with blood plasma from recovering patients.If convalescent plasma is ultimately shown to have a clear benefit, the new study published in the journal mBio concluded that it needs to be collected during a specific window of time after recovery.However, recovering patients can't donate blood until at least 14 days after symptoms have subsided, to give the body time to clear viral particles."We don't want to transfuse the virus, just transfuse the antibodies," said

Unsung immune cells take over when covid antibodies wane

Unsung warriorsT cells, by contrast, are able to kill virus-infected cells, remember past diseases for decades, and rouse fresh antibody soldiers long after the first have left the battlefield. People infected with another coronavirus that was responsible for the SARS epidemic in 2003, for example, still have a T-cell response to the disease 17 years later.That suggests T cells may still, at least hypothetically, be ready to protect SARS survivors against the infection almost two decades later, and might bolster their defense against Covid-19.“Antibodies wane after a certain period of time," said Thomas Schinecker, who heads the diagnostics unit of Swiss drugmaker Roche Holding AG.
