Indirect effects of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine on pneumococcal carriage in children hospitalised with acute respiratory infection despite heterogeneous vaccine coverage: an observational study in Lao People's Democratic Republic

Jocelyn Chan et al.

Summary: This study in Lao PDR aimed to assess the effectiveness of PCV13 against VT pneumococcal nasopharyngeal carriage and the association between PCV13 coverage and VT carriage. The results showed that both individual PCV13 vaccination and higher PCV13 coverage were associated with reduced odds of VT carriage.

Absence of detection of RSV and influenza during the COVID-19 pandemic in a Brazilian cohort: Likely role of lower transmission in the community

Fernanda Hammes Varela et al.

Summary: RSV and influenza are prevalent seasonal community viruses, and this study aimed to report the detection of these viruses during the period of social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The results showed that while SARS-CoV-2 was positive in 32.7% of participants, influenza and RSV were not detected at all. This suggests that measures to reduce SARS-CoV-2 transmission may have had a significant impact on the spread of other respiratory pathogens.
