Duration of effectiveness of vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 disease: results of a systematic review and meta-regression

Daniel R. Feikin et al.

Summary: This study systematically reviewed the duration of protection provided by COVID-19 vaccines against various clinical outcomes. The findings indicate that the effectiveness or efficacy of the vaccines decreased from 1 to 6 months after full vaccination, but remained high against severe disease. Evaluating the effectiveness or efficacy of vaccines beyond 6 months is crucial for updating vaccine policies.

Guido Forni et al.

Summary: The development of vaccines has made significant progress, but still faces various challenges, including different target populations, immunological adaptability of vaccines, and production and distribution issues. To ensure equitable access, protection of diverse subjects, and immunity against viral variants, multiple vaccines may be needed in the long run.

Safety and immunogenicity of an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, BBV152: a double-blind, randomised, phase 1 trial

Raches Ella et al.

Summary: The BBV152 vaccine demonstrated tolerable safety outcomes and enhanced immune responses in this clinical trial, leading to selection of both Algel-IMDG formulations for phase 2 immunogenicity trials. Further efficacy trials are warranted to validate the vaccine's effectiveness.

Evaluation of a surrogate virus neutralization test for high-throughput serosurveillance of SARS-CoV-2

Joachim Marien et al.

Summary: An independent evaluation of a commercially available surrogate virus neutralization test (sVNT) showed high sensitivity in detecting neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, making it a powerful tool for monitoring neutralizing antibodies in cohort and population studies, especially in regions lacking infrastructure for traditional neutralization tests.

Raches Ella et al.

Summary: BBV152 vaccine, consisting of whole-virion inactivated SARS-CoV-2 with Algel and IMDG, showed high neutralizing antibody responses in phase 1 trial and better reactogenicity in phase 2 trial. The 6 mu g with Algel-IMDG formulation has been chosen for phase 3 efficacy trial.

Victoria Rotshild et al.

Summary: New COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna showed the highest efficacy in preventing symptomatic COVID-19 in adults. There was no significant difference in the prevention of symptomatic disease among the elderly population. mRNA-1273 and Gam-COVID-Vac vaccines were associated with a higher probability of protection against severe COVID-19 compared to other vaccines.

Qiao Liu et al.

Summary: This study included 58 studies, with the effectiveness of a single dose vaccine in preventing SARS-CoV-2 infections at 41% and two doses reaching 85% effectiveness. The vaccines are generally safe and help reduce the incidence of COVID-19-related deaths and severe cases.

Nadim Sharif et al.

Summary: This study conducted a meta-analysis on the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, revealing that mRNA vaccines and adenovirus vector vaccines can provide moderate to high protection against COVID-19 in individuals aged 18 and above. However, evidence on the long-term protection of these vaccines in individuals under 16 years old against multiple variants of COVID-19 is limited.
