EBV and the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the agent of COVID-19, are different viruses, but the infected host responses may share important features. Primary EBV infection, infectious mononucleosis, in young adults typically presents with some combination of oropharyngitis, lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, fever, malaise and fatigue, but it can present with seizures. 1, 2 COVID-19 typically presents with some combination of fever, cough, dyspnea, anosmia, ageusia, headache, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, but in young adults it may present with seizures, which can be hypothesized to be due to microvascular thrombosis or reversible obstruction from hyperviscosity similar to what happens in the lungs. 3, 4 A 23-year-old male construction worker was brought to hospital on a Sunday morning after having a seizure at church lasting 1–2 min, manifested by staring blankly, jaw clenching and muscle twitching. On arrival, the patient...

"Program integrity" is the sort of technical term that sounds good. Who wouldn't want to run Social Security with integrity? But unfortunately, in the Alice-in-Wonderland world of Washington-speak, the phrase doesn't mean what you think. Administering Social Security with integrity sounds as if it means ensuring that the right payments go to the right people in the right amounts. You would think it means that the Social Security Administration (SSA) helps working families get the benefits that they have earned. Instead, it means the opposite. "Program integrity" is insider-code for saving money. How is money saved? By going after people who have done nothing wrong. By going after people with serious disabilities who must prove over and over again that they are unable to support themselves. By going after people whose benefits SSA claims were wrongly paid out, often because of mistakes made by SSA itself. The targets may be homeless. They may not speak Englis...

A person having a seizure may experience muscle spasms, blink rapidly, fall to the ground, or lose consciousness. They will require medical diagnosis of and treatment for the underlying cause of seizures. Seizures may occur as a side effect of a health condition that originates from the brain, such as epilepsy. Nonepileptic seizures may occur as well. These vary in type and may affect individuals with curable or reversible health conditions. Other catalysts for seizures include: high fevers infections head injuries strokes certain drugs This article will discuss in further detail the symptoms and types of seizures, their causes, the aftereffects, and more. Sometimes, people will experience certain sensations, called an aura, prior to a seizure. These symptoms result from electrical changes in the brain that occur when the seizure starts. They act as a warning that a seizure will happen. Yet the exact symptoms will depend on which part of the brain the seizure starts in. According to Jo...

Whooping cough, also known as pertussis, is a highly contagious respiratory tract infection. It is caused by a type of bacteria called Bordetella pertussis. The infection causes uncontrollable coughing that can make it difficult to breathe which is followed by a "whoop" sound that is high pitched in nature. Earlier, before the vaccine was invented, whooping cough was considered a childhood disease, as it affected the majority of people during their childhood. Now, it affects children who are too young to have completed the full course of vaccinations and teenagers and adults whose immunity has worn off due to time. While whooping cough can affect people of any age group, it can be deadly for infants and young children. Adblock test (Why?)

Blood cultures remain the gold standard for diagnosing bacterial and Candida bloodstream infections (BSIs), but they are limited by slow turnaround and suboptimal sensitivity. 1,2 Data from some but not all retrospective studies suggest that rapid initiation of active antimicrobial therapy correlates with reduced mortality among patients with bacterial or Candida BSIs. 3-8 Although such findings have not been validated in prospective studies, 5 the limitations of blood cultures and quality standards for sepsis and septic shock provide a rationale for aggressive empiric broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy. 5,9 These practices may promote unnecessary antimicrobial usage, drug toxicity, and emergence of resistance. 5,10,11 Culture-independent diagnostic tests (CIDTs) that detect pathogens and antimicrobial resistance genes within clinical samples are transforming clinical practice. 2,12 Syndromic CIDT panels for respiratory specimens, stool, and cerebrospinal fluid facilitate rapid...

The Delta coronavirus variant is now responsible for more than 83% of COVID-19 cases in the country, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)—a rapid spike compared to early June, when it only made up 10% of cases. More than 97% of hospitalized COVID-19 patients are unvaccinated, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, M.D., said during a briefing earlier this month. "If you get COVID-19 now, you can assume that it is from the Delta variant as it is the dominant version of the virus circulating in this country," says infectious disease expert Amesh A. Adalja, M.D., a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. The Delta variant, originally known as B.1.617.2, was first detected in India in December 2020, per the CDC. The variant is concerning because it spreads quickly and easily, may make vaccines less effective, and may reduce the effectiveness of some monoclonal antibody treatments. Whether you're vaccinated or not, it's underst...

Almost 270,000 people die every year from sepsis – a common complication that develops when an infection spreads to other parts of the body. Most of these deaths can be prevented though with early diagnosis and treatment, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Sepsis basically occurs when the body's immune system sets off a toxic reaction to an infection. Every year in the U.S. more than 1.5 million people develop sepsis. It is most common in older adults and people with weakened immune systems and chronic diseases. The CDC says it's important to prevent infections from the start by  practicing good hygiene and staying up-to-date on immunizations. So is recognizing when an infection is getting worse so you can get treated fast. While any type of infection can lead to sepsis, the Mayo Clinic says it is more commonly associated with infections of the lungs, urinary system, digestive system, bloodstream, wounds and catheter sites. Symptoms of...
