A ferritin nanoparticle candidate vaccine for COVID

In a recent study published on the bioRxiv* preprint server, the immunogenicity, and effectiveness of SARS-CoV-2 spike ferritin nanoparticle (SpFN) adjuvanted with aluminum hydroxide (AlOH3) or Army Liposomal Formulation QS-21 (ALFQ) in a cynomolgus macaque (CM) COVID-19 model was evaluated.

SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein linked to COVID-19 severity

The emergence of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that causes respiratory coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) triggered an unprecedented public health emergency. Human mobility patterns were fundamental to the spread of SARS-CoV-2 globally. The situation is particularly acute in a country like Saudi Arabia, which has seen more than 750,000 cases and over 9,000 deaths as of March 30th, 2022.

Immunity against SARS-CoV-2 BA.1, BA.2, and BA.3 after three doses of BNT162b2 vaccine

A new study assesses the neutralization of three Omicron sublineages by BNT162b2-vaccinated sera collected one month after the third vaccine dose. A preprint version of the study is available on the bioRxiv* server while the article undergoes peer review.
