Less than half of people currently willing to get a COVID-19 vaccine, international survey suggests: A new report on the public’s attitudes towards coronavirus vaccines has revealed that around half of those surveyed (51%) may be willing to get vaccinated next year. Findings from a survey of 13,500 people across 15 countries* in November suggest that […]

A new study, led by experts from the University of Nottingham, has shown that people with rare autoimmune rheumatic diseases are at a greater risk of dying at a younger age during the Covid-19 pandemic. The findings of the study, published in the British Society for Rheumatology’s journal, Rheumatology, was the work of a team […]

Obese women have an increased risk of hip fracture earlier than others, already well before the age of 70, a new study from the University of Eastern Finland shows. The study followed 12,715 women for a period of 25 years. The new findings from the Osteoporosis Risk Factor and Prevention (OSTPRE) study were published in […]

Blood tests for ‘biomarkers’ such as cholesterol and inflammation could predict whether you will be disabled in five years – according to research from the University of East Anglia. A new study shows how people’s biological health can predict disability and healthcare demand in five years’ time. But the researchers also found that people on […]

A tiny new silicon-based lab-on-chip test could pave the way for cheap handheld infectious disease testing. The chip, developed at Imperial College London and known as TriSilix, is a ‘micro laboratory’ which performs a miniature version of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on the spot. PCR is the gold-standard test for detecting viruses and bacteria […]
