Coronavirus vaccine developed in China shows promise after early study in 100 people

A potential coronavirus vaccine developed in China appeared safe and able to generate an immune response after an early trial in more than 100 people, according to a new study.

The vaccine, called Ad5-nCoV, is being developed by the Chinese company CanSino Biologics, and was one of the first coronavirus vaccines to enter early human trials back in March. Now, there are more than 100 different coronavirus vaccines in development worldwide, with at least eight of those in the process of human trials.

Ad5-nCoV uses a weakened version of a common cold virus (known as an adenovirus) — which infects human cells but doesn't cause disease — to deliver a fragment of genetic material from SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. This genetic material provides instructions for making the "spike protein" on the surface of SARS-CoV-2. The idea is that a person's immune system will create antibodies against the spike protein, which will help fight off the coronavirus if the person is later exposed to it.

New follow-up care models could benefit thousands of cancer survivors

Thousands of cancer survivors could benefit from a new model of shared follow-up care delivered by specialist cancer care nurses, GPs, and cancer specialists incorporating telehealth sessions being implemented under a five-year $1.5 million NHMRC Investigator Grant.

QUT Faculty of Health Professor of Cancer Nursing, Ray Chan said the Investigator Grant would be used to transform the way Australian cancer survivors receive care after they have completed treatment.

Professor Chan is also a member of the QUT Centre for Healthcare Transformation.
Professor Chan said he was thrilled and honored to have received a NHMRC Investigator Grant to support his research.

Professor Chan said the new model would use specialist cancer nurses, who make up the largest acute cancer care workforce, to enable the shared-care arrangement.

“These nurses will receive training and support to address any barriers impeding share-care arrangements,” he said.

“We will also ensure GPs have access to a range of clinical tools and resources, including Medicare items to enable them to spend time with the patient to discuss any side-effects of treatment or anxieties they may have.”

Professor Chan said the grant is an important investment in health service innovation researchers.

Gallbladder cancer is entering people's lives like a silent killer. The victim is unknown until the end of the disease. He comes to know about this disease in the last phase. The biggest reason for this disease is that no symptoms are seen. Due to this, the investigation is not done at the right time, and the disease takes a formidable form.

Dr. Singh said that gall bladder stones have become a common disease in the country, however, if it is not treated in time, it can affect the liver. The gall bladder is a small, pear-shaped organ in the right side of the abdomen, located just below the liver. The gall bladder contains a digestive fluid called bile (bile) which is excreted in the small intestine. Gall bladder is a hard part made of the collection of this fluid that is produced in the gall bladder. Gallstones can range in size from sand particles to golf balls. The gall bladder can produce a large size stone, hundreds of small stones, or both small and large stones. There are usually two types of gallstones. Cholesterol is found in 80% of the gallstones found in the gall bladder, which is usually yellow-green in color. In addition, the pigment stones are short and dark and are made from bilirubin. He said that many people suffering from gallstones do not have any type of symptoms.

Symptoms usually begin when one or more stones come out of the gall bladder into the bile duct where it gets stuck or stuck. This causes sudden acute pain, known as gall bladder pain, and the inflammation caused by it is called gall bladder (colchistitis). The doctor said that apart from fast food, excessive intake of fat and spicy food and irregular routines are among the main reasons for the rapid growth of this disease. Excessive use of oil proves to be a factor in increasing cholesterol levels, which leads to increased obesity and indigestion. If this is not paid in time, then this problem affects the gallbladder. In addition, there may be a rapid reduction in weight due to gallstones in the gallbladder. Imbalance of diabetes, pregnancy, fast and hormone is also the main reason for the disease to flourish. Dr. Singh said that due to the negligible number of patients of this disease in a developed country, no country does research on it. Therefore, this disease is spreading.

The situation is that three percent of the entire population of the state suffers from this disease. Out of these three percent, only half percent of the people are able to reach doctors for timely treatment. Women are more prone to gall bladder cancer: Dr. Singh said that 90 percent of the patients are diagnosed with the disease at the fourth stage, by then other parts of the body have also been affected with gall bladder. After this it becomes incurable. Gall bladder cancer is being found more in women than men. 20 percent of the total cases of cancer are from gall bladder cancer. The doctor said that doctors recommend surgery after gall bladder stones. During this, it should be kept in mind that before surgery, you must get the cancer checked. If cancer has occurred, it can spread further during surgery. After this, the age of the patient remains only six months.

Health Ministry to States/UTs: ensure that care of TB patients goes uninterrupted during COVID-19 pandemic

The Ministry of Health & Family Welfare has written to all States/UTs to ensure that the all the facilities under National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP) in the States and UTs remain fully functional in public interest and ensure that the diagnosis and treatment of TB patients goes without any interruption notwithstanding the COVID-19 pandemic situation.

The comprehensive directives include the providing one month of drugs at a time to all TB patients either newly diagnosed or currently on treatment. This includes both public and private sector TB patients, including drug-resistant TB patients. States/UTs are to ensure that patients with or without ID receive medicines at a heath facility convenient to them to prevent any form of interruption to treatment.

Have cut transmission, minimised spread, increased COVID-19 doubling time during lockdown: Govt

The government said on Thursday that it has been able to "cut coronavirus transmission", minimise its spread and increase the doubling time of COVID-19 cases in the country during the 30-day period of the nationwide lockdown.

While asserting that the growth of coronavirus cases in the country has been more or less linear and not exponential, it also said testing has been ramped up consistently.

Addressing a daily press conference on the COVID-19 situation in the country, C K Mishra, the chairman of Empowered Group Two, said, "One crucial weapon we employed during the 30-day lockdown period is RT-PCR test to ascertain if one has contracted the disease or not."

As on March 23, nearly 15,000 tests were done across the country and by April 22 more than 5 lakh tests were conducted, which is about "33 times in 30 days", he said, adding, "But we are conscious of the fact that this is not enough and we have to continuously ramp up testing in the country and we will do that."

Of the empowered groups formed to suggest measures to ramp up healthcare, put the economy back on track and reduce misery of people once the lockdown is lifted, Mishra is the chairman of Empowered Group Two tasked with coordinating availability of hospitals, isolation and quarantine facilities, disease surveillance, testing and critical care training.

"The growth of COVID-19 cases has been more or less linear, not exponential; this indicates that the strategies we adopted have succeeded in containing the infection to a particular level. Post imposition of lockdown, while the number of new positive cases has increased by 16 times, testing increased by 24 times," Mishra said in his presentation.

"During the 30 days of lockdown, we have been able to cut transmission, minimize spread and increase the doubling days of COVID-19. We have been able to consistently ramp up our testing and utilise our time preparing for the future in case the virus spreads further," he said.

Mishra also said that in the last month, the number of dedicated hospitals for treating coronavirus patients has been increased 3.5 times and the number of isolation beds rose by 3.6 times.

"Despite a 24-fold increase in testing, percentage of positive cases is not rising. The percentage of positive cases as a ratio of testing is more or less the same as that a month ago," he said.

Mishra also claimed that India has done better than a majority of developed countries with respect to the percentage of test cases yielding positive results.

"We need to evolve our strategy based on the current position... We seem to be doing well so far with our strategy which is intensely focused on areas where we see a lot of positivity and action happening. Our testing strategy has been focused, targeted and continues to expand," he said.

Joint Secretary in the Health Ministry Lav Agarwal said no new COVID-19 cases of the pandemic has been reported from 78 districts in the last 14 days.

He also said, "4,257 COVID-19 patients, which is 19.89 per cent of those infected have been cured so far. In the last 24 hours, 1,409 cases were reported, taking the total number of positive cases to 21,393.
