The following is a summary of some recent studies on COVID-19. They include research that warrants further study to corroborate the findings and that has yet to be certified by peer review.
. Eight of the patients continued to shed infectious virus for longer than doctors expected, and tests showed that four of the eight had virus particles with mutations that are known to reduce the drug's effectiveness. The mutations had developed within six to 13 days after the patients started receiving the drug, the research team reported inon Wednesday.
Genetic studies are warranted when patients do not recover as expected after sotrovimab treatment, she said. "It's important to bear in mind that these treatment-resistance mutations are uncommon," Rockett added. "However, our study highlights the need for better surveillance and further research to ensure that novel antiviral treatments remain effective and if resistance develops, it is not transmitted into the community.
Instead of the official estimate of 5.9 million COVID-related deaths, a more realistic estimate is 18.2 million, according to a report inon Thursday. Researchers compared data from 74 countries and territories collected from January 2020 through December 2021 with data collected during the previous 11 years. On average, among every 100,000 people worldwide, there were 120 deaths that would not have been expected had the pandemic not occurred, they estimated.
"Further research will help to reveal how many deaths were caused directly by COVID-19, and how many occurred as an indirect result of the pandemic," study leader Haidong Wang of the University of Washington in Seattle said in a statement.
