Vaccine mandate may have little impact on health care staffing levels

The U.S. Supreme Court is weighing challenges to a Biden administration vaccine mandate that requires eligible employees in Medicare or Medicaid-funded facilities to get vaccinated or receive an exemption.

Comparing the Moderna and Pfizer-Biontech vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 infection

A new study used target trial emulation design for comparison of both the vaccines in the VA healthcare system against the risk of infection, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19.

An egg-derived SARS-CoV-2 vaccine and treatment for COVID-19 disease

A new study, posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, has focussed on the development of intranasal prophylaxis against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

A common cold may boost the immune system against COVID-19

A recent groundbreaking research paper published in the journal Nature Communications reveals the association of circulating SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells at exposure with lack of infection – implying the protective role for cross-reactive immune T cells in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and opening the door for second-generation vaccines that could circumvent spike-antibody immune escape variants.

New technique could allow more diseases to be safely treated by nanomedicine

Researchers at Penn Medicine have discovered a new, more effective method of preventing the body's own proteins from treating nanomedicines like foreign invaders, by covering the nanoparticles with a coating to suppress the immune response that dampens the therapy's effectiveness.

Danish household study shows COVID vaccinates reduce susceptibility and transmissibility

A new study discusses the effect of vaccines against COVID-19 on the transmissibility and susceptibility of vaccine recipients to SARS-CoV-2.

11 Jan 2022

Engineering higher affinity SARS-CoV-2 antibodies

A new study describes the potential of engineered neutralizing antibodies that have a high affinity for the binding epitopes.

11 Jan 2022

Third dose of mRNA COVID vaccine induces strong immunity in older adults

A new study describes the beneficial effects of a third dose of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine in strengthening immunity among older adults.

11 Jan 2022

Impact of post-exposure BNT162b2 prophylaxis against SARS-CoV-2 infections

In a new study, researchers determined evidence for post-exposure vaccination in reducing the mortality rate of COVID-19 and concluded that post-exposure prophylaxis successfully decreased SARS-CoV-2-associated death rates.

11 Jan 2022

Withdrawing steroid treatment found to boost SARS-CoV-2 vaccine-induced immunity in kidney transplant recipients

In a new study, a team of researchers investigated the impact of the fourth dose of a vaccine against COVID-19 in kidney transplant recipients, who had not mounted a humoral immune response to three doses of vaccine.

11 Jan 2022

Researchers identify specific factors that influence attitudes about vaccines

Worldwide, vaccine hesitancy is proving to be a stumbling block to securing much needed protection against the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

11 Jan 2022

Study finds T cell response mostly conserved against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant following infection or vaccination

A new preprint examines the extent of protection offered by T cell responses to primary vaccination and/or natural infection with the virus.

11 Jan 2022

Evaluating effectiveness of the COVID-19 mRNA-1273 vaccine against Omicron and Delta variants

Researchers recently assessed vaccine effectiveness against Omicron and Delta variant-induced infection as well as hospitalization, including among immunocompromised individuals.

11 Jan 2022

Study finds heterologous vaccine booster evokes robust immunity to SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant

The current study examines the role of heterologous vaccination, an area that lacks much clarity.

11 Jan 2022

The effect of COVID-19 on routine immunizations for vaccine-preventable diseases

A new study has focussed on determining the impact of COVID-19 associated interferences with different recovery scenarios for ten vaccine-preventable diseases.

11 Jan 2022

Real-world effectiveness of three COVID-19 vaccines

Researchers from IQVIA Real-World Solutions have investigated how effective these vaccines are against severe disease.
