“…The intervention of probiotics targeting gut microbiota may improve the problem of reduced immune response in frail individuals. 182 , 183 Furthermore, vaccine‐induced immune responses may vary greatly among individuals, and vaccines are less immunogenic in populations at the highest risk of infectious diseases. The composition and function of the gut microbiota may serve as key factors regulating the immune response to vaccines.…”

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) recently caused a global pandemic, resulting in more than 702 million people being infected and over 6.9 million deaths. Patients with coronavirus disease (COVID‐19) may suffer from diarrhea, sleep disorders, depression, and even cognitive impairment, which is associated with long COVID during recovery. However, there remains no consensus on effective treatment methods. Studies have found that patients with COVID‐19 have alterations in microbiota and their metabolites, particularly in the gut, which may be involved in the regulation of immune responses. Consumption of probiotics may alleviate the discomfort caused by inflammation and oxidative stress. However, the pathophysiological process underlying the alleviation of COVID‐19‐related symptoms and complications by targeting the microbiota remains unclear. In the current study, we summarize the latest research and evidence on the COVID‐19 pandemic, together with symptoms of SARS‐CoV‐2 and vaccine use, with a focus on the relationship between microbiota alterations and COVID‐19‐related symptoms and vaccine use. This work provides evidence that probiotic‐based interventions may improve COVID‐19 symptoms by regulating gut microbiota and systemic immunity. Probiotics may also be used as adjuvants to improve vaccine efficacy.

I would like to outline a few areas in Clinical Microbiology that have become major research disciplines over the last 10 years that may now impact Health and Allied Sciences. They encompass (1) COVID-19, (2) biofilms, (3) microbiomes, (4) nanotechnology, and (5) probiotics. As well as being direct research areas, they overlap with each other, and they are beginning to overlap in important ways with Health and Allied Sciences-hence the importance of contributing papers on these subjects to the Journal of Health and Allied Sciences NU (JHAS-NU).There have been 43 publications on COVID-19 in JHAS-NU since the journal began in 2016, but the subject of all except for 6 of these articles is direct patient care. Three 1-3 have some diagnostic care component and the subject of the other three is the laboratory diagnosis of COVID-19. [4][5][6] Since JHAS-NU began in 2016, there have been 2 publications on biofilms, 7,8 3 publications on the microbiome, 9-11 2 publications on nanotechnology, 12,13 and 1 publication on probiotics. 14 The following are some examples of current research impacting Health and Allied Sciences in the above-mentioned areas:
