New research out is looking to bring us closer to understanding how covid-19 can cause brain damage. The study suggests that while the viral infection may not directly reach the brain in most cases... ...It can spark the sort of destructive inflammation that’s seen with other neurological conditions. The research was conducted by U.S. government scientists at the National Institutes of Health. The team studied the brains of 19 people who died after contracting covid-19, says Gizmodo. The researchers found clogged, thinned out, and leaky blood vessels as well as inflammation.
Men infected with COVID-19 are nearly three times as likely to require intensive care unit treatment. They also have a far higher risk for death from the virus than women, says UPI. The findings of this study are leading researchers to ask why these differences exist. Scientists will most likely use this knowledge to inform their fight against COVID-19. Researchers estimate that men account for more than half of those infected with the new coronavirus. However, this could be because men are more likely to develop symptoms.

A new study reveals a COVID-19 vaccine under development in England safely promotes an immune response against the virus. According to UPI, the vaccine is in Phase 2 of clinical trials with Astra Zeneca, and is particularly effective in elderly recipients who are over age 70. Researchers say the finding of the 'robust' responses in older people in their study is both significant and encouraging. The populations at greatest risk of serious COVID-19 disease include people with existing health conditions and older adults. The so-called "Oxford vaccine," formally known as ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, is one of more than 120 being evaluated in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. To date, 48 of these vaccines have gotten into clinical trials to assess their safety and efficacy.
