D614G mutation in SARS-CoV-2 increases viral fitness and infectivity

| Health And Fitness

Severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) belongs to the beta-coronavirus family.  Coronaviruses are positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses, and have one of the largest genomes among RNA viruses.

Out of the 7 known coronaviruses that have infected humans so far, 4 (HCov-229E, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-NL63, CoV-HKU1) can cause seasonal, mild respiratory symptoms in healthy people. In contrast, the SARS-CoV-1 and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) are closely related to SARS-CoV-2 and have caused the 2002-2003 SARS and 2012 MERS epidemics, respectively. The current coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is a global public health emergency with over 38 million cases and 1.08 million deaths worldwide to date.

The SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) glycoprotein

The surface of the SARS-CoV-2 virus has a spike (S) glycoprotein, which is a large homo-trimeric glycoprotein that forms a crown at the virus capsid surface. Each S protomer is further divided into two domains – S1 and S2

Henry Ford Health System will raise its minimum wage to $15 per hour for more than 3,000 employees, beginning Sunday, CEO Wright Lassiter III announced Friday.

Despite losing millions of dollars this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Lassiter said the pay raise helps to fulfill Henry Ford’s mission of improving lives and healing. The raise, which was considered back in 2019 but delayed when the pandemic hit in March, will tack on another $6 million in additional costs.

“We have a critical role to play in removing barriers to opportunity and achieving equity for all — and our team members are a crucial part of the communities we all serve,” Lassiter said in a statement.

“There is a strong association between financial health and security and overall health, a reality that has been driven home over the last eight months for our team members who are on the front

By Lisa Shumaker

(Reuters) – Nine U.S. states have reported record increases in COVID-19 cases over the last seven days, mostly in the upper Midwest and West where chilly weather is forcing more activities indoors.

On Saturday alone, four states – Kentucky, Minnesota, Montana and Wisconsin – saw record increases in new cases and nationally nearly 49,000 new infections were reported, the highest for a Saturday in seven weeks, according to a Reuters analysis. Kansas, Nebraska, New Hampshire, South Dakota and Wyoming also set new records for cases last week.

September 30, 2020

As Minnesota nears its 100,000th confirmed case of COVID-19, the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) is cautioning that the worst of the pandemic may not be over.

Earlier today, MDH announced there were 16 deaths reported in the state attributed to COVID-19 – the highest daily total in more than a month.

Patients requiring hospitalization have increased as well, reporting levels that are the highest since early June.

MDH officials have attributed the spike in cases and deaths to formal and informal gatherings among friends, families and co-workers who are not adhering to mask-wearing and social distancing. At least 75 confirmed cases in recent weeks have been linked to a late-August wedding in Lyon County. A total of 39 cases have been linked to a funeral in Martin County.

As of today’s figures, 2,036 Minnesotans have died to illnesses attributed to COVID-19. Of those, 72 percent were
