Infectious Chikungunya Virus (CHIKV) With a Complete Capsid Deletion: A New Approach for a CHIKV Vaccine. [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2019 Currently, there is no licensed vaccine against CHIKV infection. An ideal CHIKV vaccine should generate an optimal balance between efficacy and safety. Live attenuated vaccines that can elicit strong immune responses often involve a trade-off of reduced safety. Here, a novel live attenuated vaccine candidate for CHIKV lacking the entire capsid gene, ΔC-
