The WHO welcomed the new details, but asked for a breakdown by province and more SARS-CoV-2 sequences.
The median time to sustained recovery was 11 days in both the ivermectin and placebo group.
South Dakota, Tennessee, and Maine were the only states to score "very easy" or "fairly easy" in readability.
Infections are rare and can be severe or fatal, but so far scientists don't see genetic changes that pose an increased threat to people.
About half of long-COVID patients who were on sick leave at 4 months were still on sick leave at 2 years.
Global cases have declined 25% in the previous 4 weeks, but deaths rose 13%.
A review of 52 studies finds ASPs are linked to a 10% reduction in antibiotic prescribing and 28% reduction in antibiotic consumption in healthcare settings.
Alternatives to Bacillus Calmette-Guerin are tied to many negative consequences, including adverse effects and premature organ loss.
Infections rose amid the COVID-19 pandemic, with a concerning increase in community-onset cases and newer mechanisms of resistance.
A phase 3 trial shows ceftobiprole was noninferior to daptomycin in patients with complicated Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia.
Families headed by an adult with long COVID had higher odds of pandemic-related financial difficulties, regardless of prepandemic socioeconomic status.
CDC researchers found that adults 65 and older continue to hospitalized for COVID at much higher rates than other age groups, yet antivirals remain underused in this age group .
Vaccines must promote mucosal immunity to prevent infection by respiratory viruses and limit spread.
The results suggest that children with severe SARS-CoV-2 or MIS-C and severe neurologic disorders may be at high risk for long-term impairment, the authors say.
The group steered away from defined cutoff points such as "droplets" and "aerosols" that scientists have used to distinguish larger particles from smaller particles.
The two studies indicate that continuous infusions of beta-lactam antibiotics reduce the risk of mortality in critically ill sepsis patients.
Patients with suspected community-onset sepsis accounted for half of total inpatient antipseudomonal beta-lactam antibiotic and anti–MRSA antibiotic days.
The authors say the virus can bind to both avian and human-type cell receptors but doesn't easily spread through respiratory routes.
A randomized trial suggests simple interventions for patients with respiratory illness could reduce illness duration, aid antimicrobial stewardship efforts.
In all of 2023, US cases of the vaccine-preventable disease totaled 58.
Though the reports yield timely, useful clues, experts note important lessons, lingering questions, and concerns about preparedness.
But the researchers say other genetic mutations would likely be needed for the virus to prefer human cell receptors and enable efficient human transmission.
Prevention should focus on COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy, the authors say.
After diagnosis, long-COVID patients also filled more new prescriptions for drugs such as antibiotics (45%) and those for pain (34%).
