Immunogenicity of COVID-19 adsorbed inactivated vaccine (CoronaVac) and additional doses of mRNA BNT162b2 vaccine in immunocompromised adults compared with immunocompetent persons
Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo. 2024 Apr 19;66:e24. doi: 10.1590/S1678-9946202466024. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTInactivated COVID-19 vaccines data in immunocompromised individuals are scarce. This trial assessed the immunogenicity of two CoronaVac doses and additional BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine doses in immunocompromised (IC) and immunocompetent (H) individuals. Adults with solid organ transplant (SOT), hematopoietic stem cell transplant, cancer, inborn immunity errors or rheumatic diseases were included in the IC group. Immunocompetent adults were used as control group for comparison. Participants received two CoronaVac doses with...

COVID-19 Vaccination-Related Myocarditis: What We Learned From Our Experience and What We Need to Do in The Future
Korean Circ J. 2024 Apr 1. doi: 10.4070/kcj.2024.0065. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has led to a global health crisis with substantial mortality and morbidity. To combat the COVID-19 pandemic, various vaccines have been developed, but unexpected serious adverse events including vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia, carditis, and thromboembolic events have been reported and became a huddle for COVID-19 vaccination. Vaccine-related myocarditis (VRM) is a rare but significant adverse event associated primarily with mRNA vacci...

Evolution of illness severity in hospital admissions due to COVID-19, Qu ébec, Canada, January to April 2022
CONCLUSION: Severity of admissions due to COVID-19 decreased in the first months of 2022, when predominant circulating variants were considered to be of similar severity. Monitoring hospital admissions due to COVID-19 can contribute to disease severity surveillance.PMID:38655241 | PMC:PMC11037885 | DOI:10.14745/ccdr.v50i12a08 (Source: Can Commun Dis Rep)

COVID-19 outcome trends by vaccination status in Canada, December 2020-January 2022
CONCLUSION: Vaccination remains one of the most important public health interventions, particularly among older adults, to protect against COVID-19 severe outcomes as the pandemic evolves. Routine monitoring of COVID-19 outcomes by vaccination status can identify changes in COVID-19 epidemiology and inform public health action and policy.PMID:38655240 | PMC:PMC11037879 | DOI:10.14745/ccdr.v50i12a05 (Source: Can Commun Dis Rep)
