Conclusion: Our modelling demonstrates that the autumn 2022/spring 2023 booster campaign reduced COVID-19-associated morbidity and mortality. Booster campaigns with alternative eligibility criteria warrant consideration in the UK, given their potential to further reduce morbidity and mortality as future ...
Due to the rapid SARS-CoV-2 evolution and the subsequent emergence of Omicron BA.4/BA.5 variants in spring and summer of 2022, a bivalent booster vaccine update containing the BA.4/BA.5 spike sequence (mRNA-1273.222) was also deployed to more closely match the dominant-circulating variant ...

We first quantified vaccine-induced spike S1 domain-reactive antibodies before vaccination 1 (visit 1), at 2–8 weeks (visit 2) or 4–5 months (visit 3) after vaccination 2 and at 2–8 weeks after vaccination 3 (booster shot; visit 4) in infection-naive individuals with cancer. Individua...
was measured in triplicate to assess method repeatability and used as a negative control. Signals were integrated by covering a minimum of 95% of the area of the isotopic envelope of glycopeptide peaks. The inclusion of an analyte for the final data analysis was based on quality criteria such ...
