Mussel Protein Used to Develop New Vaccine Technology
Scientists in South Korea have developed a new adhesive adjuvant protein-based nanoparticle vaccine technology that they believe may provide longer-lasting immunity with a single injection. According to the researchers in a study published in the journal Biomaterials in 2026, the new approach used bioengineering, gene synthesis and cloning to create a new vaccine technology using […]
COVID-19 Boosters Linked to More Illness and Absenteeism in Health Care Workers
A new peer-reviewed Swiss study has found that recent COVID-19 booster shots were linked to higher short-term illness risk and absenteeism among health care workers, raising questions about he benefits of universal booster campaigns, particularly in populations at low risk for COVID complications. The cohort study was published on Aug. 9, 2025 in the journal […]
Study Confirms Menstrual Irregularities Following COVID Shots
Throughout the debate over the safety of COVID-19 shots, many women have expressed concerns about the relationship between the shots and menstrual cycle irregularities and fertility. In a study published in the journal Frontiers in Immunology, researchers validated the view by these women that there are unsettling menstrual irregularities following receipt of the COVID shots […]
COVID Vaccination May Impair Innate Immune Function
Epidemiologist and researcher, Paul Alexander, PhD warns that COVID-19 vaccination could permanently damage the innate immune system in children and prevent it from functioning and developing normally.1 The innate (cellular) immune system acts as the first line of defense against the challenge of pathogens causing infectious disease. When the innate immune system identifies pathogenic viruses, […]
The T-Cell Response to COVID-19 Infections and Immunity
Story Highlights Rapid decline of neutralizing antibodies following COVID-19 infection in some people have led to concerns that immunity to the SARS-CoV-2 virus Is temporary. However, several recent studies have shown a presence of virus-specific T-cells that remain, including among patients with mild or asymptomatic infections. Long-lasting immunity after recovery from COVID-19 infection may be […]
