Summary: This study found that mRNA vaccines are highly effective at preventing symptomatic and severe COVID-19 associated with B.1.617.2 infection. Vaccination is associated with a faster decline in viral RNA load and a robust serological response.

Comorbidities as Risk Factors for Severe Disease in Hospitalized Elderly COVID-19 Patients by Different Age-Groups in Japan

Yusuke Asai et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of elderly COVID-19 patients in different age groups and found differences among age groups. Most patients had at least one comorbidity, and hypertension was high in all age groups. The proportion of patients with dementia, cardiovascular disease, and cerebrovascular disease increased with age.

Summary: Vaccination reduces the risk of delta variant infection and accelerates viral clearance. However, fully vaccinated individuals with breakthrough infections may still have similar peak viral loads as unvaccinated cases and can efficiently transmit the infection.

Summary: A study indicated that within the first 13 days after COVID-19 vaccination, the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection was significantly higher in patients who had received a single dose compared to those who had received two doses. Full vaccination plays a crucial role in reducing the risk of severe complications from COVID-19, especially in older patients.

COVID-19 Recovery Patterns Across Alpha (B.1.1.7) and Delta (B.1.617.2) Variants of SARS-CoV-2

Nitya Kumar et al.

Summary: Patients infected with the delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 have a slower recovery as indicated by longer length of stay and higher shedding of the virus compared to alpha variant infections. This trend is consistent in both vaccinated and unvaccinated patients.

Summary: This study in Slovenia during the predominance of the Delta variant found that fully vaccinated adult patients with breakthrough infections had a lower likelihood of progressing to critically severe disease and spent less time hospitalized compared to unvaccinated patients.

Summary: Isolation guidelines for SARS-CoV-2 need to be adjusted due to the impact of the delta variant, which shows characteristics such as higher viral load and longer duration of shedding. Prompt testing and isolation are crucial for individuals with symptomatic delta breakthrough infections.

Vaccination status among patients with the need for emergency hospitalizations related to COVID-19

Ibrahim Toker et al.

Summary: This study investigated the characteristics and mortality rates among hospitalized patients with moderate and severe COVID-19 based on their vaccination status. The results showed that individuals aged 65 and above, unvaccinated individuals, and those with comorbidities had higher mortality rates, while vaccination status, age, and comorbidities were associated with mortality. The study did not evaluate vaccine efficacy, but lower mortality rates were observed among those vaccinated with Coronavac and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines.

Immunosenescence and COVID-19

Jacek M. Witkowski et al.

Summary: Ageing is associated with changes in immune system function. These changes may contribute to the increased severity and deadliness of COVID-19 in the elderly. Immunosenescence and inflammaging, which develop over time depending on challenges to the immune system, can affect the reactivity to SARS-CoV-2. Infection with SARS-CoV-2 can also impact the function of the immune system. Immunosenescence and inflammaging can worsen, and be worsened by, SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Vaccine efficacy against severe COVID-19 in relation to delta variant (B.1.617.2) and time since second dose in patients in Scotland (REACT-SCOT): a case-control study

Paul M. McKeigue et al.

Summary: This study investigated the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines against severe disease after the delta variant became predominant and whether the efficacy of two doses of the vaccine decreased over time. The results showed that the efficacy of vaccination against severe COVID-19 declined in May 2021 but was reversed in the following month. The most recent data showed that the efficacy of two doses of the ChAdOx1 vaccine was 91% and for mRNA vaccines (Pfizer or Moderna) was 92%. However, the efficacy of the ChAdOx1 vaccine decreased significantly after 20 weeks from the second dose, while the efficacy of mRNA vaccines decreased in the first ten weeks and remained stable thereafter. These findings support the implementation of additional protective measures, such as booster doses, during periods of high transmission rates.

Mark W. Tenforde et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the association between mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and COVID-19 hospitalization, as well as disease progression to critical illness among hospitalized patients. The results showed that vaccination with mRNA COVID-19 vaccines significantly decreased the likelihood of COVID-19 hospitalization and disease progression to death or mechanical ventilation.

Summary: The study found that the effectiveness of the BNT162b2 vaccine in reducing viral loads of breakthrough infections decreases over time. However, this reduction in viral load can be restored by receiving a third vaccine dose.

Summary: This study found that immune memory to SARS-CoV-2 and its variants remains robust for at least 6 months after mRNA vaccination, with antibodies declining but still detectable in most individuals. mRNA vaccines also induced functional memory B cells and antigen-specific T cells, with recall responses primarily increasing antibody levels in individuals with preexisting immunity.
