#usa vs #uk #infant #vaccination difference - not sure why: #meningitis - a serious infection affecting the brain, vaccination (MenB Bexsero), is given for babies in the UK and not in the US. Does anyone know the rationale?

Preprint: doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…. Viral infections have been linked to an increased risk for dementia - might SARS-CoV-2 infection also confer an increased risk of dementia in segments of the population?

Blood biomarkers in middle-aged people suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with greater brain β-amyloid plaque accumulation. The findings published in Nature Medicine suggest that SARS-CoV-2 may increase the risk of future Alzheimer’s disease. go.nature.com/3CzmbJM
