Study Reveals Immune Factors Behind COVID-19 Resistance in Some Individuals

As part of the first-ever COVID-19 human challenge study, researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institute, University College London (UCL), Imperial College London, the Netherlands Cancer Institute, and their collaborators examined immune responses against SARS-CoV-2 infection in healthy adult volunteers using single-cell sequencing.

Herpes Gene Therapy Achieves 90% Viral Reduction in Pre-Clinical Studies

Researchers at Fred Hutch Cancer Center have found in pre-clinical studies that an experimental gene therapy for genital and oral herpes removed 90% or more of the infection and suppressed how much virus can be released from an infected individual, which suggests that the therapy would also reduce the spread of the virus.
