Effects of the timing of maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination status on placental transfer of antibodies to neonates: A cross-sectional study. Int J Infect Dis 2024; 146:107098. [PMID: 38762044 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijid.2024.107098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2023] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/20/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the effects of timing of maternal severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and vaccination status on placental transfer of antibodies to neonates. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, chemiluminescence was employed to measure SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody titers in paired maternal-infant samples from women infected during pregnancy who were vaccinated or unvaccinated. Generalized linear regression assessed factors affecting antibody transfer in infected pregnant women and neonatal titers. RESULTS The group with ≥90 days between infection and delivery showed a higher antibody transfer rate than the <90 days group (β= 0.33, 95%CI: 0.01-0.65). Neonatal IgG titers correlated significantly with maternal titers and with maternal infections more than 90 days before delivery. Among infected pregnant women, those who had received 2 or 3 doses of vaccine before pregnancy had higher neonatal antibody titers than those who were not vaccinated (β = 57.70, 95%CI: 31.33-84.07). CONCLUSION Neonates born to pregnant women who were vaccinated before infection showed higher antibody titers than neonates of pregnant women who were not vaccinated before infection. The transfer rate is higher in pregnant women with ≥90 days from infection to delivery than in those with <90 days. These findings highlight the importance of timely maternal vaccination to optimize maternal and infant immunity.

Abstract
The coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection has resulted in increased morbidity and mortality in patients with impaired immunity, hematologic malignancies, and immunosuppressive regimens. COVID-19 can cause a cytokine storm with some patients benefiting from blockade of the pro-inflammatory cytokine, interleukin 6 (IL6). As Castleman disease (CD) is an atypical lymphoproliferative disorder that can involve a cytokine storm and often requires immunosuppressive therapies, including IL6 inhibition, we sought to evaluate outcomes following COVID-19 and SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in CD patients. We administered a survey in April 2021 to characterize experiences with COVID-19 and SARS-CoV-2 vaccination among 300 CD patients enrolled in ACCELERATE, a natural history registry of CD patients. Among 128 respondents, the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection (16/95, 17%), severe disease (1/16, 6%), vaccination rates (112/128, 88%), and vaccine adverse effects after dose one (62/112, 55%) were comparable to the general U.S. population. While there were two cases of CD flares occurring shortly after SARS-CoV-2 infection (N=1) and vaccination (N=1), over 100 patients in this study that were infected and/or vaccinated did not experience CD flares. The median anti-spike titer six months after the second dose among CD patients was comparable to individuals with other immune-related diseases and healthy populations. Data from this small cohort suggest that, despite being on immunosuppressive therapies, CD patients do not appear to be at increased risk of poor COVID-19 outcomes and can mount a humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. This study was registered on clinicaltrials.gov (#NCT02817997).

Abstract
Advancing personalized medicine in brain cancer relies on innovative strategies, with mRNA vaccines emerging as a promising avenue. While the initial use of mRNA vaccines was in oncology, their stunning success in COVID-19 resulted in widespread attention, both positive and negative. Regardless of politically biased opinions, which relate more to the antigenic source than form of delivery, we feel it is important to objectively review this modality as relates to brain cancer. This class of vaccines trigger robust immune responses through MHC-I and MHC-II pathways, in both prophylactic and therapeutic settings. The mRNA platform offers advantages of rapid development, high potency, cost-effectiveness, and safety. This review provides an overview of mRNA vaccine delivery technologies, tumor antigen identification, combination therapies, and recent therapeutic outcomes, with a particular focus on brain cancer. Combinatorial approaches are vital to maximizing mRNA cancer vaccine efficacy, with ongoing clinical trials exploring combinations with adjuvants and checkpoint inhibitors and even adoptive cell therapy. Efficient delivery, neoantigen identification, preclinical studies, and clinical trial results are highlighted, underscoring mRNA vaccines' potential in advancing personalized medicine for brain cancer. Synergistic combinatorial therapies play a crucial role, emphasizing the need for continued research and collaboration in this area.

Abstract
Inflammation can trigger lasting phenotypes in immune and non-immune cells. Whether and how human infections and associated inflammation can form innate immune memory in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) has remained unclear. We found that circulating HSPC, enriched from peripheral blood, captured the diversity of bone marrow HSPC, enabling investigation of their epigenomic reprogramming following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Alterations in innate immune phenotypes and epigenetic programs of HSPC persisted for months to 1 year following severe COVID-19 and were associated with distinct transcription factor (TF) activities, altered regulation of inflammatory programs, and durable increases in myelopoiesis. HSPC epigenomic alterations were conveyed, through differentiation, to progeny innate immune cells. Early activity of IL-6 contributed to these persistent phenotypes in human COVID-19 and a mouse coronavirus infection model. Epigenetic reprogramming of HSPC may underlie altered immune function following infection and be broadly relevant, especially for millions of COVID-19 survivors.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has ravaged the world since December 2019. Up to now, it is still prevalent around the world. Vaccines are an important means to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and reduce severe disease and mortality. Currently, different types of novel coronavirus vaccines are still being developed and improved, and the relevant vaccines that have been approved for marketing have been widely vaccinated around the world. As vaccination coverage continues to grow, concerns about the efficacy and safety of vaccines after real-world use have grown. Some clinical studies have shown that vaccine effectiveness is closely related to antibody response after vaccination. Among them, the advantages of COVID-19 messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine, such as better adaptability to variant strains and better immune response ability, have attracted great attention. However, different populations with different genders, ages, previous COVID-19 infection history, underlying diseases and treatments will show different antibody responses after mRNA vaccination, which will affect the protection of the vaccine. Based on this, this paper reviews the reports related severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 mRNA vaccines, and summarizes the effectiveness of vaccines in different populations and different disease states and looked forward to the precise vaccination strategy of the vaccine in the future.

Abstract
The diversity of vaccination modalities and infection history are both variables that have an impact on the immune memory of individuals vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2. To gain more accurate knowledge of how these parameters imprint on immune memory, we conducted a long-term follow-up of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein-specific immune memory in unvaccinated and vaccinated COVID-19 convalescent individuals as well as in infection-naïve vaccinated individuals. Here, we report that individuals from the convalescent vaccinated (hybrid immunity) group have the highest concentrations of spike protein-specific antibodies at 6 months after vaccination. As compared with infection-naïve vaccinated individuals, they also display increased frequencies of an atypical mucosa-targeted memory B cell subset. These individuals also exhibited enhanced TH1 polarization of their SARS-CoV-2 spike protein-specific follicular T helper cell pool. Together, our data suggest that prior SARS-CoV-2 infection increases the titers of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein-specific antibody responses elicited by subsequent vaccination and induces modifications in the composition of the spike protein-specific memory B cell pool that are compatible with enhanced functional protection at mucosal sites.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the antibody titer of spike-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies after receiving coronavirus repair uridine ribonucleic acid (RNA) vaccine (BNT162b2, Pfizer) in health care workers. METHODS At one hospital, health care workers received the vaccination between February and May 2021. A survey using questionnaires and spike-specific IgG antibody tests (Abbott) was conducted in 293 participants who had been vaccinated at least once and consented to this study at the time of medical checkups between April and May 2021. We calculated the antibody titer in each age group and days post-vaccination. We examined whether antibody titers of 4,000 AU/mL or higher (probability of high titer: approximately 95%, Abbott) were associated with adverse reactions after vaccination. In addition (1), the antibody titers at approximately 100 days after the second vaccination in 11 participants were remeasured. Furthermore (2), the antibody titers at approximately 260 days after the second vaccination in 13 participants were remeasured and compared with the initial measurements. RESULTS Of the participants, 276 were post-2 doses (A), 14 were post-1 dose (B), and 3 discontinued the second vaccination (C) at the time of health checkup. The median antibody titer was 11,045.8 AU/mL (50.7-40,000) in group A, 122.7 AU/mL (2.6-1,127.0) in group B, 27,099.3 AU/mL in one of group C who had recovered from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and 574.2 AU/mL (283.3 and 865.1) in the other two of group C. The median antibody titer was the highest in those in their 20s, and there was a significant difference between those under and above 40 years of age. The median titer was the highest in 2 weeks to 1 month after the second vaccination. After the second dose, fatigue (≥ moderate) was associated with antibody titers of 4,000 AU/mL or higher. The antibody titers of 11 and 13 participants at approximately 100 and 260 days after the second vaccination were significantly lower than those at the first measurement, with median values of 2,838.0 AU/mL (832.9-5,698.6) and 512.0 AU/mL (154.0-1,220.0), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Antibody titers were higher in participants under 40 years of age than those 40 years or older. In addition, the percentage of high antibody titer (≧ 4,000 AU/mL) was higher in those who had severe fatigue after the second vaccination. The peak of antibody titer after the second dose was approximately 1 month, and the titer may decline gradually.

Addo IY, Dadzie FA, Okeke SR, Boadi C, Boadu EF. Duration of immunity following full vaccination against SARS-CoV-2: a systematic review. Arch Public Health 2022; 80:200. [PMID: 36050781 PMCID: PMC9436729 DOI: 10.1186/s13690-022-00935-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 07/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background As vaccine roll-out continues across the globe as part of the efforts to protect humanity against SARS-CoV-2, concerns are increasingly shifting to the duration of vaccine-induced immunity. Responses to these concerns are critical in determining if, when, and who will need booster doses following full vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. However, synthesised studies about the durability of vaccine-induced immunity against SARS-CoV-2 are scarce. This systematic review synthesised available global evidence on the duration of immunity following full vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. Methods We searched through Psych Info, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, PubMed, and WHO COVID-19 databases for relevant studies published before December 2021. Five eligibility criteria were used in scrutinising studies for inclusion. The quality of the included studies was assessed based on Joana Briggs Institute’s (JBI) Critical Appraisal tool and Cochrane’s Risk of Bias tool—version 2 (RoB 2), while the reporting of the results was guided by the Synthesis Without Meta-analysis (SWiM) guidelines. Results Twenty-seven out of the 666 identified studies met the inclusion criteria. The findings showed that vaccine-induced protection against SARS-CoV-2 infections builds rapidly after the first dose of vaccines and peaks within 4 to 42 days after the second dose, before waning begins in subsequent months, typically from 3 to 24 weeks. Vaccine-induced antibody response levels varied across different demographic and population characteristics and were higher in people who reported no underlying health conditions compared to those with immunosuppressed conditions. Conclusions Waning of immunity against SARS-CoV-2 begins as early as the first month after full vaccination and this decline continues till the sixth month when the level of immunity may not be able to provide adequate protection against SARS-CoV-2. While the evidence synthesised in this review could effectively inform and shape vaccine policies regarding the administration of booster doses, more evidence, especially clinical trials, are still needed to ascertain, with greater precision, the exact duration of immunity offered by different vaccine types, across diverse population characteristics, and in different vulnerability parameters. Registration The protocol for this review was pre-registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews [PROSPERO] (Registration ID: CRD420212818).

PLoS One 2022; 17:e0271625. [PMID: 35857813 PMCID: PMC9299352 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0271625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS This study surveyed people regarding their acceptance of periodic doses (i.e., annual boosters) of the COVID-19 vaccine. Moreover, factors that correlate with attitudes toward periodic COVID-19 vaccines were assessed and identified. METHOD The study employed a cross-sectional methodology. The study questionnaire was distributed using Google Forms. Data were collected during the last quarter of 2021, and 1,416 adults (18 years old and over) from Jordan responded. Acceptance of COVID-19 periodic vaccine doses was calculated as a percentage of the total number of study participants, and their attitudes were scored. A multiple regression model was used to determine the predictors of public attitudes toward the annual dose of COVID-19 vaccines. RESULTS The acceptance rate for receiving periodic doses of the COVID-19 vaccine was low (19.3%). Additionally, 26% of participants were unsure about receiving additional doses of the vaccine. However, 54.7% had a negative attitude toward getting periodic doses. The mean score for attitudes toward periodic doses was 47.9 (range: 29-66). Among the identified factors leading to decisions not to receive periodic doses were side effects (49.1%), waiting for further clinical studies (38.8%), and perceived no risk of contracting COVID-19 (17.7%). Regression analysis showed that income, educational attainment, and following the news about COVID-19 were predictors of participants' attitudes toward the periodic COVID-19 vaccine. CONCLUSION Acceptance of periodic doses of the COVID-19 vaccine in Jordan is low, and the public's attitude is generally negative. Health programs and educational interventions are needed to promote vaccine acceptance and positive attitudes.

Observational Study of Receptor Binding Domain Spike Antibody Responses to 3 SARS-CoV-2 Vaccinations in Noninfected Subjects: Parallel Neutralizing Antibody and Cardiac Troponin I and T Observations. J Appl Lab Med 2022; 7:1346-1353. [PMID: 35723283 PMCID: PMC9384328 DOI: 10.1093/jalm/jfac053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Background Our goals were to demonstrate receptor binding domain spike 1 (RBD S1) protein antibody (Ab) kinetic responses to multiple vaccines over approximately 180 days, neutralizing Ab effectiveness, and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) and T (hs-cTnT) responses in postvaccinated, non-SARS-CoV-2–infected subjects. Methods Blood specimens were collected pre- and postvaccinations from seronegative subjects. RDB S1 Abs were measured by the novel Qorvo Biotechnologies Omnia platform. Neutralizing Abs and hs-cTnI and hs-cTnT were measured on the ET Healthcare Pylon 3D. Results Two-dose vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna) had peak RBD S1 Ab concentrations about 45 to 55 days after both doses and showed declines over the next 50 to 70 days. The Janssen vaccine showed lower RBD S1 Ab peak concentrations, continued to increase over time, and plateaued after 60 days. There was strong neutralizing Ab response post vaccinations, with only 3 specimens, shortly before and shortly after vaccination, not showing a response. Specimens showed no hs-cTnI (all < 3 ng/L) and hs-cTnT (all < 6 ng/L) increases or changes over time. Conclusions We demonstrate in seronegative SARS-CoV-2 subjects that Pfizer and Moderna vaccinations provide strong, neutralizing RBD S1 Ab effectiveness, based on 2 different assays after 2 doses, with the Janssen single-dose vaccine showing a lower RBD S1 Ab response over 4 to 6 months. No myocardial injury was associated with the Pfizer postvaccination. The Qorvo Biotechnologies RBD S1 Ab assay measured on the Omnia platform has potential as a point-of-care platform.

Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass markedly lowers SARS-COV-2 antibody titer. TURKISH JOURNAL OF THORACIC AND CARDIOVASCULAR SURGERY 2022; 30:160-166. [PMID: 36168572 PMCID: PMC9473596 DOI: 10.5606/tgkdc.dergisi.2022.23347] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Background
This study aims to investigate the effect of cardiopulmonary bypass on antibody titers in patients vaccinated against the severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.
Methods
Between October 2021 and October 2022, a total of 70 patients (44 males, 26 females; mean age 59.9±10.3; range, 26 to 79 years) who completed their recommended COVID-19 vaccinations and underwent elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass were prospectively included. Serum samples for antibody titer measurements were taken at anesthesia induction and the end of cardiopulmonary bypass after decannulation. The SARS-CoV-2 total immunoglobulin antibodies against N-protein were measured. The antibody titer measurements at anesthesia induction and at the end of cardiopulmonary bypass were compared in all patients.
Results
The median levels after cardiopulmonary bypass were lower than the preoperative levels (1,739.0 vs. 857.0, respectively; p<0.001). There was a drop of 40.0% (21.2%-62.6%) in the antibody titers among all patients. The decrease in antibody titers was consistent regardless of the number of vaccine doses or whether the last dose was received within the last three months. Among the studied factors, no parameter was significantly associated with a lesser or higher decrease in antibody titers.
Conclusion
Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass causes a decrease in SARS-CoV-2 antibody titers at the end of cardiopulmonary bypass. Revaccination after cardiac operations may be considered in this patient group that is highly vulnerable due to their comorbidities and lowered antibody levels.

Abstract
(1) Background: Booster vaccinations for SARS-CoV-2 convalescents are essential for achieving herd immunity. For the first time, this study examined the influencing factors of vaccination willingness among SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals and identified vaccination-hesitant subgroups. (2) Methods: Individuals with positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR results were recruited by telephone. They completed an online questionnaire during their home isolation in Germany. This questionnaire assessed the vaccination willingness and its influencing factors. (3) Results: 224 home-isolated individuals with acute SARS-CoV-2 infection were included in the study. Vaccination willingness of home-isolated SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals with asymptomatic or moderate course was 54%. The following factors were associated with significantly lower vaccination willingness: younger age, foreign nationality, low income, low trust in vaccination effectiveness, fear of negative vaccination effects, low trust in the governmental pandemic management, low subjective informativeness about SARS-CoV-2, support of conspiracy theories. (4) Conclusions: The vaccination willingness of home-isolated SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals with asymptomatic or moderate symptomatic course was low. Motivational vaccination campaigns should be adapted to individuals with acute SARS-CoV-2 infection and consider the vaccination-hesitant groups. Vaccination education should be demand-driven, low-threshold, begin during the acute infection phase, and be guided for example by the established 5C model ("confidence, complacency, constraints, calculation, collective responsibility").

Abstract
Vaccination is one of the key strategies to stop the COVID-19 pandemic. This review aims to evaluate the current state of vaccine development and to determine the issues that merit additional research. We conducted a literature review of the development of COVID-19 vaccines, their effectiveness, and their use in special patient groups. To date, 140 vaccines are in clinical development. Vector, RNA, subunit, and inactivated vaccines, as well as DNA vaccines, have been approved for human use. Vector vaccines have been well studied prior to the COVID-19 pandemic; however, their long-term efficacy and approaches to scaling up their production remain questionable. The main challenge for RNA vaccines is to improve their stability during production, storage, and transportation. For inactivated vaccines, the key issue is to improve their immunogenicity and effectiveness. To date, it has been shown that the immunogenicity of COVID-19 vaccines directly correlates with their clinical efficacy. In view of the constant mutation, the emerging new SARS-CoV-2 variants have been shown to be able to partially escape post-vaccination immune response; however, most vaccines remain sufficiently effective regardless of the variant of the virus. One of the promising strategies to improve the effectiveness of vaccination, which is being studied, is the use of different platforms within a single vaccination course. Despite significant progress in the development and study of COVID-19 vaccines, there are many issues that require further research.

Abstract
Background A single dose COVID-19 vaccines, mostly mRNA-based vaccines, are shown to induce robust antibody responses in individuals who were previously infected with SARS-CoV-2, suggesting the sufficiency of a single dose to those individuals. However, these important data are limited to developed nations and lacking in resource-limited countries, like Ethiopia. Methods We compared receptor-binding domain (RBD)-specific IgG antibodies in 40 SARS-CoV-2 naïve participants and 25 participants previously infected with SARS-CoV-2, who received two doses of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine. We measured the antibody response in post-vaccination blood samples from both groups of participants collected at four different post-vaccination time points: 8- and 12-weeks after each dose of the vaccine administration using an in-house developed ELISA. Results We observed a high level of anti-RBD IgG antibodies titers 8-weeks after a single dose administration (16/27; 59.3%) among naïve participants, albeit dropped significantly (p<0.05) two months later, suggesting the protective immunity elicited by the first dose ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine will likely last for a minimum of three months. However, as expected, a significant (p<0.001) increase in the level of anti-RBD IgG antibodies titers was observed after the second dose administration in all naïve participants. By contrast, the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine-induced anti-RBD IgG antibody titers produced by the P.I participants at 8- to 12-weeks post-single dose vaccination were found to be similar to the antibody titers seen after a two-dose vaccination course among infection- naïve participants and showed no significant (p>0.05) increment following the second dose administration. Conclusion Taken together, our findings show that a single ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 dose in previously SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals elicits similar antibody responses to that of double dose vaccinated naïve individuals. Age and sex were not associated with the level of vaccine-elicited immune responses in both individuals with and without prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. Further studies are required to assess the need for a booster dose to extend the duration and amplitude of the specific protective immune response in Ethiopia settings, especially following the Omicron pandemic.

Long-Term Humoral Immune Response against SARS-CoV-2 after Natural Infection and Subsequent Vaccination According to WHO International Binding Antibody Units (BAU/mL). Viruses 2021; 13:v13122336. [PMID: 34960605 PMCID: PMC8708153 DOI: 10.3390/v13122336] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2021] [Revised: 11/18/2021] [Accepted: 11/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
The new WHO reference standard allows for the definition of serum antibodies against various SARS-CoV-2 antigens in terms of binding antibody units (BAU/mL) and thus to compare the results of different ELISA systems. In this study, the concentration of antibodies (ABs) against both the S- and the N-protein of SARS-CoV-2 as well as serum neutralization activity were evaluated in three patients after a mild course of COVID-19. Serum samples were collected frequently during a period of over one year. Furthermore, in two individuals, the effects of an additional vaccination with a mRNA vaccine containing the S1-RBD sequence on these antibodies were examined. After natural infection, the antibodies (IgA, IgG) against the S1-protein remained elevated above the established cut-off to positivity (S-IgA 60 BAU/mL and S-IgG 50 BAU/mL, respectively) for over a year in all patients, while this was not the case for ABs against the N-protein (cut-off N-IgG 40 BAU/mL, N-IgA 256 BAU/mL). Sera from all patients retained the ability to neutralize SARS-CoV-2 for more than a year. Vaccination resulted in a rapid boost of antibodies to S1-protein but, as expected, not to the N-protein. Most likely, the wide use of the WHO reference preparation will be very useful in determining the individual immune status of patients after an infection with SARS-CoV-2 or after vaccination.

Rzymski P, Poniedziałek B, Fal A. Willingness to Receive the Booster COVID-19 Vaccine Dose in Poland. Vaccines (Basel) 2021; 9:1286. [PMID: 34835217 PMCID: PMC8624071 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines9111286] [Citation(s) in RCA: 107] [Impact Index Per Article: 35.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2021] [Revised: 10/18/2021] [Accepted: 11/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
COVID-19 vaccinations are essential to mitigate the pandemic and prevent severe SARS-CoV-2 infections. However, the serum antibody levels in vaccinated individuals gradually decrease over time, while SARS-CoV-2 is undergoing an evolution toward more transmissible variants, such as B.1.617.2, ultimately increasing the risk of breakthrough infections and further virus spread. This cross-sectional online study of adult Poles (n = 2427) was conducted in September 2021 (before a general recommendation to administer a booster COVID-19 vaccine dose in Poland was issued) to assess the attitude of individuals who completed the current vaccination regime toward a potential booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine and identify potential factors that may influence it. Overall, 71% of participants declared willingness to receive a booster COVID-19 dose, with a low median level of fear of receiving it of 1.0 (measured by the 10-point Likert-type scale), which was increased particularly in those having a worse experience (in terms of severity of side effects and associated fear) with past COVID-19 vaccination. The lowest frequency of willingness to receive a booster dose (26.7%) was seen in the group previously vaccinated with Ad26.COV2.S. The majority of individuals vaccinated previously with mRNA vaccines wished to receive the same vaccine, while in the case of AZD1222, such accordance was observed only in 9.1%. The main reasons against accepting a booster COVID-19 dose included the side effects experienced after previous doses, the opinion that further vaccination is unnecessary, and safety uncertainties. Women, older individuals (≥50 years), subjects with obesity, chronic diseases, and pre-vaccination and post-vaccination SARS-CoV-2 infections, and those with a history of vaccination against influenza were significantly more frequently willing to receive a booster COVID-19 dose. Moreover, the majority of immunosuppressed individuals (88%) were willing to receive an additional dose. The results emphasize some hesitancy toward potential further COVID-19 vaccination in the studied group of Poles and indicate the main groups to be targeted with effective science communication regarding the booster doses.
