Introduction: COVID-19 is often characterized by an acute upper respiratory tract infection. However, information on longer-term clinical sequelae following acute COVID-19 is emerging. We followed a group of persons with COVID-19 in Zambia at two months to assess persistent symptoms.

Importance: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by chronic pain and episodic acute pain caused by vasoocclusive crises, often requiring high doses of opioids for prolonged periods. In humanized mouse models of SCD, a synthetic cannabinoid has been found to attenuate both chronic and acute hyperalgesia. The effect of cannabis on chronic pain in adults with SCD is unknown.

Methods: Infants under 2 months of age brought with illness to health facilities in Bangladesh, Bolivia, Ghana, India, Pakistan, and South Africa were recruited in two age-groups: 0-6 days and 7-59 days.

Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) can cause prolonged infections in individuals with compromised immunity.
Objectives: To investigate whether RSV evolves during prolonged infection in an immunocompromised host.
Study Design: We sequenced the envalope glycoprotein genes of RSV obtained at three time points during a 59-day period from a 4-year-old female with severe combined immune deficiency (SCID) treated with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG).
