According to a recent study, SARS-CoV-2 variants Alpha, Delta, and Gamma continue to infect white-tailed deer, despite no longer circulating in humans. Based on this discovery, researchers believe that white-tailed deer may serve as a reservoir of variant SARS-CoV-2 strains.

"The EScAPE project, which I am involved in, involves more than a hundred researchers across almost 20 countries and aims to document and evaluate the roles of official (and in some cases, unofficial) government science advisory mechanisms during the COVID-19 pandemic."

"Several of the world’s biggest pharmaceutical companies are fighting shareholder proposals to force them to disclose information on their use of a controversial patent strategy that can delay rivals from launching cheaper versions of blockbuster drugs.
A coalition of ethical investors have asked Johnson & Johnson, Merck, Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Gilead, Amgen, Regeneron, Bristol Myers Squibb and AbbVie to publish a report on the process they follow when applying for multiple patents on a single drug."

'The combination test correctly identified 99 percent of negative and 90 percent of positive flu A samples, according to the F.D.A. It also detected 100 percent of the negative and 88 percent of the positive Covid samples. The agency said it expected the company to continue to test on the flu B strain, which was not prevalent this year.'
