| Michael Novakhov - SharedNewsLinks: New Zealand orders lockdown after four new COVID-19 cases emerge | ||

Four new cases of COVID-19 have been detected in New Zealand the first reported cases the country has seen in 102 days, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said Tuesday as she ordered another lockdown.
The positive coronavirus cases are from a single household in Auckland, the nations largest city. Ardern ordered a lockdown for the city beginning midday Wednesday through midnight Friday shuttering bars and businesses and prohibiting people from leaving their homes except to conduct essential activities. Schools will also be closed. These three days will give us time to assess the situation, gather information, make sure we have widespread contact tracing so we can find out more about how this case arose and make decisions about how to respond to it once we have further information, Ardern said at a hastily called news conference late Tuesday. A person in their 50s went to the doctor Monday with symptoms and was swabbed twice testing positive both times, Director-General of Health Ashley Bloomfield said. Six other people were tested, with three more positive results. The source of the fresh infections is unknown. Importantly, the person has no history of overseas travel, Bloomfield noted. The confirmed cases come after Ardern announced the country had effectively eradicated coronavirus in early June. The country, which has largely returned to normal, has been praised globally for its response to the COVID-19 outbreak. Ardern said news of the new cases will be very difficult to receive. We had all hoped not to find ourselves in this position again, she said Tuesday. But we had also prepared for it. And as a team, we have also been here before. Mass gatherings across the rest of the country will be limited to 100 people, with social distancing requirements in place. With Post wires More Stories  | ||

Newswise — Hamilton, ON (August 11, 2020) – Working together, researchers at McMaster University and the University of Waterloo are searching for how the SARS-CoV-2 virus infects the lungs – and they’re challenging what has become an accepted truth about the virus.
Previously, scientists have determined that entry of SARS-CoV-2 into cells occurs through a receptor on the cell surface, known as ACE2. But the McMaster-Waterloo team has found that the ACE2 receptor is at very low levels in human lung tissue. “Our finding is somewhat controversial, as it suggests that there must be other ways, other receptors for the virus, that regulate its infection of the lungs,” said Jeremy Hirota, co-lead scientist of the team from the Research Institute of St. Joe’s Hamilton and an Assistant Professor of Medicine at McMaster. “We were surprised that the fundamental characterization of the candidate receptors in human lung tissue had not yet been done in a systematic way with modern technologies.” “Finding such low levels of ACE2 in lung tissue has important implications for how we think about this virus.” said co-lead Andrew Doxey, Professor of Biology at the University of Waterloo. “ACE2 is not the full story and may be more relevant in other tissues such as the vascular system.” A paper on their findings has been published recently in the European Respiratory Journal. Their findings have been confirmed independently by other researchers in Molecular Systems Biology. Now, to explore alternate additional infection pathways and different patient responses to infection, the team is using nasal swabs that were collected for clinical diagnoses of COVID-19. These samples offer the opportunity to determine which genes are expressed by patients’ cells and associate this information with the development of the patients’ disease. The ongoing study will better identify and treat patients who are at risk of developing serious complications and provide predictive capacity for hospitals. “It is clear that some individuals respond better than others to the same SARS-CoV-2 virus. The differential response to the same virus suggests that each individual patient, with their unique characteristics, heavily influences COVID-19 disease severity,” said Hirota, who holds the Canada Research Chair in Respiratory Mucosal Immunology at McMaster. “We think it is the lung immune system that differs between COVID-19 patients, and by understanding which patients’ lung immune systems are helpful and which are harmful, we may be able to help physicians pro-actively manage the most at risk-patients.” Researchers will correlate positive and negative COVID-19 cases with clinical outcomes, and ultimately use this data to generate predictive algorithms related to morbidity and mortality. The aim is to use this predictive information to optimize health care delivery. The research has received grants from the Ontario COVID-19 Rapid Research Fund of the Ontario government, from the COVID-19 Innovation Challenge of Roche Canada and from FastGrants.org managed by the Thistledown Foundation in Canada. “We’re looking for additional partners to collaborate with us in moving this research forward, as we believe there is an opportunity to develop diagnostic devices with this information,” said Hirota. -30- | ||
