20 Citations | Using these results alongside a complementary SIR model, we find that one-third of the Indian population could eventually be infected by COVID-19, and that a complete recovery from COVID-19 will happen only after an estimated 450 days from January 2020. |
| The cases of COVID-19 will continue to rise and the virus will be sustainable for future infections. | |
| This is consistent with the endemic nature of the disease in the country. | |
| If the prevalence stays as reported here, the population will definitely need COVID-19 vaccines when they become available. |

Will endemic coronavirus exposure affect SARS-CoV-2 vaccination papers from 2020?5 answersEndemic coronavirus exposure can influence the immune response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. Studies have shown that individuals with pre-existing immunity to endemic coronaviruses (eCOVIDs) have cross-reactive immune responses to SARS-CoV-2, which may contribute to protection against COVID-19. Specifically, prior exposure to HCoV-OC43 has been found to prime neutralizing antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 and promote S2-targeting antibody responses. However, it has been observed that vaccination with a stabilized spike mRNA vaccine does not robustly boost cross-reactive antibodies, suggesting differences in antigenicity and immunogenicity. Additionally, T-cell cross-reactivity from previous HCoV infections enhances the T-cell response after vaccination, but does not increase SARS-CoV-2-specific memory B-cell levels in the absence of previous infection. Overall, the level of specific memory B-cells appears to play a role in determining the time to breakthrough infections, regardless of the presence of T-cell cross-reactivity.
How has COVID-19 impacted the incidence of tuberculosis?5 answersThe impact of COVID-19 on the incidence of tuberculosis (TB) has been observed globally. During the COVID-19 era, there was a significant reduction in TB incidence, with a decrease in the number of new TB cases detected in consecutive years. This reduction in TB incidence was attributed to factors such as lockdown measures, which induced a reduction in TB notification rates. However, it is important to note that the relationship between TB and COVID-19 is still not fully understood. While the impact of COVID-19 on TB varies in different regions, some areas experienced a rebound in TB incidence during the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, the COVID-19 pandemic has had both positive and negative effects on TB incidence, highlighting the need for continued efforts to control and prevent TB in the post-COVID-19 era.
