A study in Pediatrics indicates that COVID-19 does not contribute to an increased risk of developing asthma in children, according to an analysis of 27,423 pediatric patients.

The same study found that Black race, food allergy, and allergic rhinitis are factors more strongly associated with a new asthma diagnosis.

Researchers have created an AI system capable of predicting individuals' willingness to get vaccinated against COVID-19, using demographics and personal attitudes towards risk.

Another study, involving 746 patients, shows that vaccination post-COVID-19 infection significantly lowers the risk of reinfection, with one, two, and booster shots reducing the risk by 65%, 83%, and 95% respectively.

Vaccination also prolongs the duration before reinfection occurs, reinforcing the importance of continued vaccination strategies and the need for regular updates to vaccine formulations.
