Safety and immunogenicity of an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, BBIBP-CorV: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 1/2 trial

Shengli Xia et al.

Summary: The inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, BBIBP-CorV, demonstrated safety and immunogenicity in two age groups. Humoral responses against SARS-CoV-2 were induced in all vaccine recipients by day 42. A two-dose immunisation with 4 mu g vaccine on days 0 and 21 or days 0 and 28 achieved higher neutralising antibody titres compared to other dosing schedules.

Model-informed COVID-19 vaccine prioritization strategies by age and serostatus

Kate M. Bubar et al.

Summary: The study found that prioritizing the vaccine for adults aged 20 to 49 can minimize the number of cases, while prioritizing the vaccine for adults over 60 can minimize mortality and years of life lost. Redirecting vaccine doses to seronegative individuals through individual-level serological tests can improve the impact of each dose.

Who should be prioritized for COVID-19 vaccination in China? A descriptive study

Juan Yang et al.

Summary: Based on utilitarian and egalitarian principles, the study defined the target populations and priority levels for a COVID-19 vaccination program in different phases to maximize vaccination effectiveness. Essential workers were prioritized in the early stage, followed by older adults, individuals with underlying health conditions, and pregnant women, and later extended to adults and children without underlying health conditions.

Challenges in ensuring global access to COVID-19 vaccines: production, affordability, allocation, and deployment

Olivier J. Wouters et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic may not end globally until vaccines that protect against severe disease and drive herd immunity are widely distributed. While vaccines have been authorized for human use in many countries, achieving global control of COVID-19 requires not only licensed vaccines but also mass production, affordable pricing, global allocation, and wide local deployment.

Infectivity, susceptibility, and risk factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 transmission under intensive contact tracing in Hunan, China

Shixiong Hu et al.

Summary: The study found that transmission of SARS-CoV-2 mainly occurs during the pre-symptomatic phase, with susceptibility to infection increasing with age. However, transmissibility does not significantly differ between age groups or symptomatic states.

Association of Age With Likelihood of Developing Symptoms and Critical Disease Among Close Contacts Exposed to Patients With Confirmed SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Italy

Piero Poletti et al.

Summary: In this cohort study in Italy, more than half of close contacts of confirmed SARS-CoV-2 patients tested positive for the virus, but most of them did not develop respiratory symptoms or fever. The low proportion of children and young adults who developed symptoms highlights the challenges in identifying SARS-CoV-2 infections.

Dynamic prioritization of COVID-19 vaccines when social distancing is limited for essential workers

Jack H. Buckner et al.

Summary: Given the limited supply of COVID-19 vaccines, it is crucial to prioritize vaccination across different age and essential worker groups to achieve public health goals, such as minimizing infections and deaths. Depending on the objectives, the prioritization order may vary, with older essential workers typically targeted first but younger essential workers or seniors prioritized based on the goal of controlling spread or mortality. Various factors such as vaccine effectiveness, supply, transmission rate, and initial infections magnitude can influence the optimal prioritization strategy.

What do we know about China's covid-19 vaccines?

Chris Baraniuk

Summary: The country where covid-19 first emerged is leading the way in promoting a series of vaccines domestically and internationally. However, lack of transparency around the data leads to a fragmented picture.

The impact of relaxing interventions on human contact patterns and SARS-CoV-2 transmission in China

Juanjuan Zhang et al.

Summary: Nonpharmaceutical interventions have been implemented to control the spread of SARS-CoV-2 with varying intensity, timing, and impact on transmission. Post-lockdown COVID-19 dynamics are heterogeneous and difficult to interpret. Contact surveys in four Chinese cities showed that the mean number of contacts increased in the post-lockdown period compared to the lockdown period, but remained lower than pre-pandemic levels. The impact of school closures on transmission depends nonlinearly on the intensity of other activities.

Effect of 2 Inactivated SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines on Symptomatic COVID-19 Infection in Adults A Randomized Clinical Trial

Nawal Al Kaabi et al.

Summary: This interim analysis of an ongoing randomized trial in the UAE and Bahrain evaluated the efficacy of two inactivated COVID-19 vaccines in preventing symptomatic cases and adverse events in healthy adults. The study found that both vaccines significantly reduced the risk of symptomatic COVID-19 compared to the control group, with efficacy rates of 72.8% and 78.1%. Serious adverse events were rare across all groups.

Vaccine optimization for COVID-19: Who to vaccinate first?

Laura Matrajt et al.

Summary: Vaccines are expected to be the best tool for controlling the COVID-19 pandemic, with high effectiveness paired with high coverage able to significantly mitigate the pandemic. Vaccine allocation strategies may vary based on vaccine effectiveness, with high-risk age groups prioritized for low effectiveness vaccines, and high-transmission age groups prioritized for high effectiveness vaccines.
