mRNA vaccines train our body to produce antibodies against viral proteins. Researchers found that these vaccines are highly effective in reducing the duration of COVID-19 illness.
COVID-19 Monoclonal Antibody Cocktail Treatment
Antibody cocktail administered against COVID-19 that attacks SARS- CoV-2 virus directly to cut down mortality rate in hospitalized patients should be available for all.

‘Individuals who got an mRNA vaccine experienced milder COVID-19 symptoms and a 60% reduction in the rate of sickness than the unvaccinated ones.’
mRNA vaccines introduce a piece of viral genetic material into our body and teach it to synthesize antibodies against the proteins produced by viral genes. Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna used this cutting-edge technology and released two-dose mRNA vaccines that help create an effective immune response against SARS-CoV-2. The current study by the HEROES-RECOVER network enrolled 3,975 people from eight sites, including Salt Lake City, Miami, Temple, Portland, Duluth, Phoenix, Tucson, and other areas in Arizona. The participants provided samples for RT-PCR tests weekly and reported symptoms related to COVID-19, including fever, shortness of breath, and loss of taste and smell, if any, for 17 weeks.
The vaccination status of the participants was continuously monitored and recorded via electronic and telephone surveys and through direct upload of images of vaccination cards.
Swab Samples from Mobile Screens can Detect Covid-19
Phone Screen Testing (PoST) can detect Covid-19 on mobile phone screens and makes mass testing much easier. It also can be used to avoid future pandemic outbreaks, be it naturally occurring or man-made viruses.

Vaccinated individuals experienced only milder symptoms of COVID-19, and the rate of sickness was reduced by 60% among them when compared to the unvaccinated ones. Also, the presence of detectable viral particles in these individuals showed a 70% reduction from 8.9 days to 2.7 days.

Test your Knowledge on Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Coronavirus is a large positive-strand RNA virus that is surrounded by a protein envelope. The virus obtains its name from the S protein spikes on its surface, which resemble a crown. The overall pattern of increasing coronavirus cases is shown to spike up with the “second wave” of COVID-19.
With spiking effects of the second wave of coronavirus, the best way to keep it at bay is to follow COVID-appropriate safety practices like wearing a mask, regularly cleaning your hands, and coughing into a bent elbow or tissue along with physical distancing (6 feet about 2 arm's length), that may help evade the severity of COVID-19 infection.
