- The novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a virus for which no known vaccine is available yet. A person diagnosed with the virus can only be managed with the hope that their immune system will fight the virus. Governments of many countries (including Ghana) are now beginning to accept the reality that until a vaccine is found, ways must be adopted to be able to live with the virus without contracting it. This means that same must be done at the workplace as well. A single person found to have contracted the virus will have a lot of implication on the organisation. This certainly is a source of concern for HR managers in the organisation. i. Explain four (4) of the HR implications should the workforce contract this virus. ii. Apart from the various safety protocols outlined by the W.H.O. and health sectors of various countries, discuss how four (4) of the various HR practices could be employed to help fight this pandemic.What is the Coronavirus? Is it a living organism? How does it reproduce? The current vaccines that are being distributed in the United States are made by Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson and Johnson. Explain how they work and how health officials believe they will aid in the pandemic? What should we expect as more and more people get vaccinated? Will things immediately go back to the way they were before? What is the Delta variant and how is it impeding on getting things back to "normal"?The complete coronavirus genome sequence from the first known patient infected with SARS-CoV-2 was published on January 10th 2020, just a short time after the patient had been hospitalized in China with respiratory symptoms. They did this so quickly using nanopore sequencing. Scientists compared the genome sequence from the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) with the genome sequences from several other coronaviruses and they did identify a sequence unique to the SARS-CoV-2 strain. This unique sequence was in the N gene of the viral genome. What protein is made from the N gene of the virus?
- The emergence of new cases of polio linked to the oral vaccine had been reported in a number of African and Asian countries, revealing that there are now more children being paralyzed by viruses originating in vaccines than in the wild. Viral contamination of a biological may arise from many factors, from handling to the origin of the materials used in the cell culture. a What could be the reason for the outbreak in those countries? D) The method of producing attenuated “live" vaccines involve passing the disease- tausing virus through a series of cell cultures or animal embryos (typically chick embryos). Explain the procedure in details and cite the reason why the method involve passing a virus through a non-human host?1) Define each of the following abbreviations: COVID-19: 2019-nCoV: SARS-CoV-2: 2) How does SARS-CoV-2 differ from SARS-CoV? 3) What is meant by the terms "delta variant" and "omicron BA.2" variants? How many waves of global variant spread have we had to date? 4) What are the defining chemical features of the coronavirus? Is this an enveloped or non-enveloped virus? How does this impact our ability to neutralize the virus outside of the body? What type of nucleic acid does it contain? (RNA? DNA? Single-stranded? Double-stranded?) Are coronaviruses genetically stable or highly variable? How does this correlate with their genetic material?You have been hired by a major pharmaceutical company to develop a new vaccine toprevent COVID-19 infection and spread.a. What is a virus? Describe the viral life cycle. (3 marks)b. Describe the difference between an antiviral drug and a vaccine. (1 mark)c. What are three qualities you would prioritize when developing this new vaccine forCOVID-19 that you would want in the end-product? (6 marks) Note: Qualities should be overarching characteristics of the developed drug, not specifics regarding various molecular mechanisms of action
- This is a hypothetical scenario. A recently emerged virus has been transmitting and mutating rapidly in humans throughout the world. If a vaccine that stops transmission of all current circulating variants of the virus in humans is utilized and herd immunity is achieved throughout the world, would this essentially stop 1) further transmission of the virus; 2) further mutation of the virus, respectively? Why/why not? Please answer the question succinctly and in bullet points!Moderna and Pfizer vaccines for COVID-19 use mRNA to the Spike protein combined with lipids. Which of the following is/are advantages of this type of vaccine compared to an inactivated virus vaccine? Select ALL correct answers. a) The vaccine is more stable for transport. b) The vaccine does not contain the virus so it cannot give you COVID-19. c) The vaccine can be rapidly produced in a slightly different form to protect from variants of SARS-CoV-2. d) The vaccine does not need a booster.53) The sheeppox and goat pox virus are both found in Africa and Asia only. Select one: F /T 54) the capripoxvirus genus contains the lumpy skin disease virus and the pseudolumpy skin disease virus. Select one: True / False 55) the poxiviridae family contains two subfamilies Select one: True / False
- An outbreak of Ebola between 2014 and 2016 resulted in 28,616 cases and 11,310 deaths in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. An additional 36 cases and 15 deaths were reported outside these 3 countries. This deadly disease urged the need for extensive research on Ebola to better understand and treat the disease and prevent future outbreaks. Ebola is a - SSRNA virus. What does this mean for how it is converted into proteins? Does this virus require additional machinery to be infectious? Can you hypothesize based on how it replicates in the cell what scientists might hope to target for treatment or prevention of Ebola?1) a. Why does the immunity offered by COvid vaccines last only for about 2-3 months maximum (compared to other vaccines)? b. Are vaccines the only or the best treatment for Covid? Do the type of vaccines matter? WIll it help for us (public) to learn in an easily accessible manner the side effects (and the frequency of occurrence) of the Covid vaccine? c. Should it be mandatory for all members of the population to take vaccines, assuming that it is readily available? d. Should there be clinical trails performed by agents (institutions) outside the very drug companies that manufacture them? Currently that option is not is not available readily.How common is ABV in the USA? In the United States, over half of adults have been infected with ABV by age 40. Once ABV is in a person's body, it stays there for life and can reactivate. Match terms with descriptions based on the text above. You can use an answer more than once or not at all. "Over half of adults have been infected with ABV by age 40." ABV could belong to this group of viruses: A. Human Papilloma Viruses B. Incidence of ABV C. Herpesviruses D. Prevalence of ABV by age 40
