Levels of antibodies in the blood of vaccinated people that are able to recognise and fight the new SARS-CoV-2 variant first discovered in India are on average lower than those against previously circulating variants in the UK.

People infected with coronavirus have a distinct odour that can be detected by trained dogs with a high degree of accuracy, according to new research involving UCLH.

UCLH and UCL neurologists have published the first clinical observations of patients who experienced an ischaemic stroke, the most common form of stroke, following an Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine.

UCLH is part of study announced by the Health Secretary in which volunteers will receive a third ‘booster’ Covid-19 vaccine.
