Outcomes of patients with COVID-19 Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome requiring Invasive Mechanical Ventilation admitted to an Intensive Care Unit in South Africa
Background Up to 30% of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia may require ICU admission or mechanical ventilation [Guan et al., 2020; Huang et al., 2020]. Data from low- and middle-income countries for COVID-19 ARDS are limited. Groote Schuur Hospital in Cape Town, South Africa expanded its ICU service …

ENDOGENOUS ANTIVIRAL PROPERTIES OF RED BLOOD CELL-DERIVED EXTRACELLULAR VESICLES AND THEIR AUGMENTATION OF ANTIVIRAL OLIGONUCLEOTIDE THERAPY
The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the urgent need for effective and accessible antiviral therapies. We explored the intrinsic antiviral activity of red blood cell-derived extracellular vesicles (RBCEVs) against SARS-CoV-2 and their use as delivery vehicles for antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs). …

AN IMPROVED GENOMIC SURVEILLANCE APPROACH TO DISSECT THE SARS-COV-2 PANDEMIC
… severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the only approach to rapidly monitor and tackle emerging variants of concern (VOC) of the COVID-19 pandemic. Such scrutiny is crucial to limit the spread of VOC that might escape the immune protection conferred by vaccination …

Estimating SARS-CoV-2 transmission in England from randomly sampled prevalence surveys
… to infer the incidence and transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in England, using only the CIS data. I fully propagate the sampling error, accurately include the shape of the duration distribution, and estimate the quantities by age; previous work lacked at least one of these. Furthermore, I fit to …

Developing SINrep5 as a Viral Vector Platform to Test SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Candidates
The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by SARS-CoV-2, serves as a stark reminder of the importance of vaccines and immunization in the arms race against novel viral agents. SARS-CoV-2 vaccines target the mutation-prone Spike Protein, leading to the rise of viral variants, and warranting additional research …
