Bolsonaro, who led Brazil from 2019 to 2023, was admitted to the hospital the day before with a high fever, a drop in oxygen saturation, sweating and chills. The former president, who is serving a 27-year sentence for plotting an alleged coup, has been susceptible to bouts of bronchopneumonia, a condition caused by gastric material being inhaled into the respiratory tract. He was stabbed in the abdomen at a campaign rally in 2018 and has had...

Why sepsis is becoming harder to treat in Europe Doctors must treat sepsis quickly to prevent organ failure. But demographic change and drug-resistant infections are making the condition harder to manage.

Long-COVID prevalence may vary by COVID-19 variant, time since infection The first known meta-analysis of how SARS-CoV-2 variant type and time since infection influence long-COVID symptoms ties Omicron to brain fog and paresthesia (numbness and tingling), while earlier variants were more likely to cause shortness of breath and loss of smell. The study also puts the prevalence of the condition at 29%, though it dropped to 23% once the Omicron strain started to dominate. Investigators in Manila, the Philippines, led the study, which involved searching six databases from December 2019 to December 2025 for studies of adults diagnosed as having long COVID. To estimate pooled prevalence, the team stratified the data by variants of concern (VoC) and follow-up (less or more than six months). The studies were of cross-sectional, case-control, prospective cohort, and retrospective cohort design, and all but one relied on patient self-report. Among all variants identified, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Omicron were considered VoC. “These VoC have been manifested with various pathologic phenotypes such as heterogeneous disease severity, resistance to neutralizing antibodies, reinfection rates, and vaccine effectiveness,” the study authors wrote. The study findings were published this week in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases. Higher prevalence before Omicron The average participant age was 46.7 years, 41.2%...

First-of-its-kind vaccine protects children from deadly E. coli infections Infections from enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) bacteria are the most common cause of travelers’ diarrhea, and they commonly cause childhood diarrhea in low-income regions. In children below the age of five, whose immune systems are still developing, the infections can lead to malnourishment; they cause up to 42,000 deaths annually. Soon there may be a vaccine to protect against these infections. In the Lancet Infectious Diseases last month, scientists shared the results of the first study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an ETEC-controlling vaccine in a large pediatric population in Gambia. The vaccine—called ETVAX—is among several in development to reduce ETEC infections in both adults and children. ETVAX provided immunity against the pathogens and did not have any adverse side effects. ETEC bacteria have “adhesin” proteins that enable them to attach themselves to the intestinal mucosa. The bacteria then release toxins, which lead to watery diarrhea and abdominal cramping. In low-income countries, a lack of access to sanitation and clean drinking water increases the risk of E. coli infections, resulting in more childhood fatalities and higher health care costs.

Watched Babylon 5 Season 1 Episode 4 "Infection". David McCallum (one of my favourites) This episode often gets hand-waved as a Monster of the Week episode, but it introduces IPX and the concept of organic technology which has a major influence on the show in later seasons.
