Confronting COVID-19 | University of Minnesota, Twin CitiesA University of Minnesota team, led by researcher Fang Li, studied how mutations that changed the structure of a SARS-CoV-2 protein enabled it to attach more securely to human cells than its predecessor, infect human cells better, and spread faster.
Confronting COVID-19 | University of Minnesota, Twin CitiesThe University of Minnesota has launched two clinical trials to test the drug hydroxychloroquine. One trial examines the drug's effectiveness in preventing COVID-19 disease.
Confronting COVID-19 | University of Minnesota, Twin CitiesA simple RNA molecule jumpstarts the immune system’s “first responders” to viral infection and can even eradicate the SARS-CoV-2 virus in mice with chronic cases of COVID-19, a new Yale School of Medicine study finds.
University Research | Confronting COVID-19 | Yale UniversityThroughout the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been much uncertainty about how long immunity lasts after an unvaccinated person is infected with SARS-CoV-2.
