Earth is danger zone in nearly all ecological ways--study

Thu, 2023-06-01 18:00 — mike kraft
Earth is 'really quite sick now' and in danger zone in nearly all ecological ways, study says A new study says Earth has pushed past seven out of eight scientifically established safety limits and into “the danger zone,” not just for an overheating planet that’s losing its natural areas, but for well-being of people living on it. The study, published Wednesday, looks not just at guardrails for the planetary ecosystem but for the first time it includes measures of “justice,” which is mostly about preventing harm for groups of people.

Analysis: old coronavirus variants are unlikely to come back but new ones are not necessarily worse

Tue, 2023-02-21 10:19 — mike kraft
Could old coronavirus variants ever come back? The virus is evolving through a "continual game of cat and mouse between the virus and our immune systems," an epidemiologist explained. YahooNews

What happened to the variants that once wreaked havoc? “For all intents and purposes, we can consider them gone,” said David Dowdy, an epidemiology professor at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

The ‘worst case’ possibility of a new coronavirus exists--WHO

Wed, 2023-02-08 17:54 — mike kraft
‘No one really wants to talk about COVID anymore,’ the WHO’s pandemic lead laments. But the ‘worst case’ possibility of a new coronavirus exists “Omicron can cause severe disease” and “is not nature’s vaccine,” experts warned, raising concerns that evolution could produce a more dangerous variant—or a new coronavirus altogether. YahooFinance

... “until no one is at risk, everyone is at risk” of a disease that continues to evolve and affect different countries to different extents, Maria Van Kerkhove, technical lead for COVID-19 at the WHO, added.

Although kids fight off COVID-19 quickly, they don't develop adaptive immunity --study

Mon, 2023-01-30 09:24 — mike kraft
Kids fight off COVID-19 quickly but don't develop adaptive immunity - UPI.com Children's amped-up immune systems allow them to beat back COVID-19 easily, producing a strong initial response that quickly slaps away the virus. But there might be a price to be paid for that sharp reaction. UPI

Because the initial response provides such a swift takedown, kids' immune systems don't remember the virus and don't adapt to be prepared for future infections, according to scientists with the Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Sydney.
