TL;DR: An algorithm for pooling subsamples based on the geometry of a hypercube that, at low prevalence, accurately identifies individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 in a small number of tests and few rounds of testing is proposed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the genomic epidemiology using a dataset of 8746 genomes from 33 African countries and two overseas territories and show that the epidemics in most countries were initiated by importations predominantly from Europe, which diminished following the early introduction of international travel restrictions.

TL;DR: PZQ treatment is as safe and efficacious in children aged 1–5 years as it is in older children aged 6–10 years in whom PZQ is the drug of choice for control of schistosome infections.

TL;DR: Praziquantel treatment markedly alters polarization of schistosome-specific cytokine responses, and these changes, particularly in response to egg-stage parasites, may promote resistance to reinfection.

TL;DR: The relationship between Schistosoma haematobium infection and atopic responses is dependent on the intensity of current schistosome infection and the immunoregulation of immune responses to allergens appears to become more pronounced with an increasing parasite burden.
