Introduction: Vaccines can prevent influenza (flu) infections and are cost-effective for society and healthcare. However, the cost-effectiveness of post-exposure prophylaxis as a follow-up strategy is unclear. This study aims to evaluate the cost utility of post-exposure prophylaxis and treatment strategies with neuraminidase inhibitors and a cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitor for flu infections from the perspective of healthcare costs in Japan.

Objectives: Immunocompromised patients may experience prolonged shedding of influenza virus potentially leading to severe infections. Alternatives to monotherapy with neuraminidase inhibitors should be evaluated to entirely suppress viral replication and prevent drug-resistant mutations.
Methods: We investigated the clinical and virological evolution in a case of persistent influenza A and human coronavirus OC43 (HCoV-OC43) coinfection in a hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipient after different therapeutic strategies.

A identified in 2019, - - , has a pandemic of respiratory , called - Most people with COVID-19 experience mild to moderate symptoms and recover without the need for special treatments. The SARS‑CoV‑2 RNA‑dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) plays a crucial role in the viral life cycle. The active site of the RdRp is a very accessible region, so targeting this region to study the inhibition of viral replication may be an effective therapeutic approach.

Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a very common disease in the intensive care unit (ICU), with rapid progression and high mortality. Infections caused by the new severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can easily progress to ARDS in severely ill patients. Early and rapid diagnosis as well as screening for ARDS during treatment is very important.
