Continuous active surveillance of adverse events following immunisation using SMS technology

Automated SMS-based reporting can facilitate sustainable, real-time, monitoring of adverse reactions and early identification of potential vaccine safety issues

Genome-wide association study of IgG1 responses to the choline-binding protein PspC of Streptococcus pneumoniae

Delayed development of antibodies to S. pneumoniae in infancy is associated with the development of atopy and asthma.

Persistence of the immune responses and cross-neutralizing activity with Variants of Concern following two doses of adjuvanted SCB-2019 COVID-19 vaccine

We have previously reported the safety and immunogenicity four weeks after two doses of the Clover COVID-19 vaccine candidate, SCB-2019, a stabilized pre-fusion form of the SARS-CoV-2 S-protein (S-trimer). We now report persistence of antibodies up to 6 months after vaccination, and cross-neutralization titers against three Variants of Concern.
