BackgroundThe global surge in the omicron (B.1.1.529) variant has resulted many individuals with hybrid immunity (immunity developed through a combination of SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination). We aimed to systematically review magnitude duration protective effectiveness previous against severe disease caused by variant.MethodsFor this systematic meta-regression, we searched for cohort, cross-sectional, case–control studies MEDLINE, Embase, Web Science, ClinicalTrials.gov, Cochrane Central Register Controlled Trials, WHO COVID-19 database, Europe PubMed from Jan 1, 2020, June 2022, using keywords related SARS-CoV-2, reinfection, effectiveness, infection, presence antibodies, immunity. The main outcomes were reinfection hospital admission or immunity, relative alone, vaccination fewer vaccine doses.

Immunocompromised individuals are not optimally protected by COVID-19 vaccines and potentially require additional preventive interventions to mitigate the risk of severe COVID-19. We aimed characterise describe across immunocompromised groups as pandemic began transition an endemic phase.

We are reviewing the current state of knowledge on virological and immunological correlates long COVID, focusing recent evidence for possible association between increasing number SARS-CoV-2 reinfections parallel pandemic COVID. The severity largely depends initial episode; in turn, this is determined both by a combination genetic factors, particularly related to innate immune response, pathogenicity specific variant, especially its ability infect induce syncytia formation at lower respiratory tract. cumulative risk COVID as well various cardiac, pulmonary, or neurological complications increases proportionally infections, primarily elderly. Therefore, cases expected remain high future. Reinfections apparently increase likelihood but less so if they mild asymptomatic children adolescents. Strategies prevent urgently needed, among older adults who have higher burden comorbidities. Follow-up studies using an established case definition precise diagnostic criteria people with without reinfection may further elucidate contribution burden. Although accumulating supports vaccination, before after infection, preventive strategy reduce more robust comparative observational studies, including randomized trials, needed provide conclusive effectiveness vaccination preventing mitigating all age groups. Thankfully, answers not only prevention, also treatment options rates recovery from gradually starting emerge.

Three and a half years into the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, nature durability of protection against severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) still remains unclear. Current COVID-19 mRNA vaccines have been shown to provide minimal infection with XBB variants but substantial disease. However, such appears wane quickly. In contrast, from combination both vaccination infection, termed "hybrid immunity", has be greater in magnitude than that provided by either vaccine immunity or natural alone.

Currently approved COVID-19 vaccines administered parenterally induce robust systemic humoral and cellular responses. While highly effective against severe disease, there is reduced effectiveness of these in preventing breakthrough infection and/or onward transmission, likely due to poor immunity elicited at the respiratory mucosa. As such, has been considerable interest developing novel mucosal that engenders more localised immune responses provide better protection recall site virus entry, contrast traditional vaccine approaches focus on immunity. In this review, we explore adaptive components immunity, evaluate epidemiological studies dissect if conferred by parenteral vaccination or drives differential efficacy acquisition discuss undergoing clinical trials assess key challenges prospects for development.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants of concern (VOCs) now arise in the context heterogeneous human connectivity and population immunity. Through a large-scale phylodynamic analysis 115,622 Omicron BA.1 genomes, we identified >6,000 introductions antigenically distinct VOC into England analyzed their local transmission dispersal history. We find that six eight largest English lineages were already transmitting when was first reported southern Africa (22 November 2021). Multiple datasets show importation continued despite subsequent restrictions on travel from as result export well-connected secondary locations. Initiation two-stage process can be explained by models country's geography hierarchical network. Our results enable comparison processes drive invasion other VOCs across multiple spatial scales.

Abstract An improved understanding of the underlying physicochemical properties respiratory aerosol that influence viral infectivity may open new avenues to mitigate transmission diseases such as COVID-19. Previous studies have shown an increase in pH aerosols following generation due changes gas-particle partitioning buffering bicarbonate ions and carbon dioxide is a significant factor reducing SARS-CoV-2 infectivity. We show here aerostability results from moderate atmospheric concentration (e.g. 800 ppm), effect more marked than observed for relative humidity. model likelihood COVID-19 on ambient CO 2 , concluding even this overall risk. These observations confirm critical importance ventilation maintaining low concentrations indoor environments mitigating disease transmission. Moreover, correlation increased with need be better understood when considering consequences increases levels our atmosphere.
