The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the circulation, seasonality, and disease burden of viral respiratory infections. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of SARS-CoV-2 on the frequency of viral respiratory infections at a teaching hospital in Southern Italy by comparing data from before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic and by investigating how the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 affected the circulation and seasonality of other respiratory viruses. This retrospective and prospective study was performed on de-identified nasopharyngeal specimens classified as pre-COVID-19 (before 15 March 2020), during-COVID-19 (from 16 March 2020 to 5 May 2023), and post-COVID-19 (from 6 May 2023 to 31 December 2024).

Background: There is limited knowledge about SARS-CoV-2 spike antibody and long-term T cell responses in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients on high efficacy treatments post SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.
Objectives: To assess spike antibody and T cell responses in MS patients on fingolimod (FIN), ocrelizumab (OCR) and healthy controls (HC) post vaccine.
Methods: We studied spike antibody seroconversion rates and T cell responses by flow cytometry in HC and MS patients.

Background: Fatigue is a common sequela of SARS-CoV-2 infection, with many COVID-19 patients subsequently developing chronic fatigue syndrome and myalgic encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME). Long-term associations between COVID-19, new-onset CFS/ME, and other independent predictors such as vaccination for SARS-CoV-2, re-infection, and blood biomarkers at time of infection remain unclear. This study investigated the incidence and independent predictors of developing new-onset CFS/ME up to 4 years post SARS-CoV-2 infection in comparison to COVID- controls.

COVID-19 vaccines proved vital in controlling the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Both neutralizing and effector-function activities of Spike-specific antibodies are important for their protective activity. Several studies have reported that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines can lead to elevated levels of Spike-specific immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4), an anti-inflammatory subclass with reduced binding to Fcγ receptors.

This article outlines the data collection process we used to document treatment efficacy and longevity changes in 1,298 patients who received a total of 4,583 treatments with either onabotulinumtoxinA, abobotulinumtoxinA, or both during the Sars-COV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic outbreak in 2020 and the adult COVID-19 vaccination program rollout in 2021. We divided the study patients into two groups based on the year they were treated (2020 = 791; 2021 = 1,037). We did not include any new patients in the study.
