Heterologous booster vaccination with CoronaVac following prime vaccination with mRNA vaccine
AbstractObjectiveDespite the high vaccine efficacy of mRNA COVID‐19 vaccines, there are individuals who developed excessive reactogenic and/or allergic responses after the first mRNA dose and were considered ineligible for further mRNA doses. CoronaVac, an inactivated SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccine, is recommended in Singapore as an alternative.MethodsIndividuals,

Self-reported adverse events after 2 doses of COVID-19 vaccine in Korea [PDF]
OBJECTIVES In Korea, a national coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination program was implemented, including 4 vaccines against COVID-19. A text messaging-based survey, in addition to a passive adverse event reporting system, was launched to ...

Harnessing the beneficial heterologous effects of vaccination [PDF]
Clinical evidence strongly suggests that certain live vaccines, in particular bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and measles vaccines, can reduce all-cause mortality, most probably through protection against non-targeted pathogens in addition to the targeted pathogen. The underlying mechanisms are currently unknown.

The global supply of COVID-19 vaccines has been limited, and concerns have arisen about vaccine supply chain disruptions in developing countries. Heterologous prime-boost vaccination, which involves using different vaccines for the first and second doses,

The impact of vaccines on heterologous adaptive immunity [PDF]
Vaccines induce antigen-specific memory in adaptive immune cells that enables long-lived protection against the target pathogen. In addition to this, several vaccines have beneficial effects greater than protection against their target pathogen. These non-specific effects are proposed to be the result of vaccine-induced immunomodulation. In the case of

The Effects of Heterologous Immunization with Prime-Boost COVID-19 Vaccination against SARS-CoV-2
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has become the global challenge. Reaching global herd immunity will help end the COVID-19 pandemic.

Homologous and Heterologous Covid-19 Booster Vaccinations
Although the three vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) that have received emergency use authorization in the United States are highly effective, breakthrough infections are occurring. Data are needed on the serial use of homologous boosters (same as the primary vaccine) and heterologous boosters (different from the primary vaccine) in ...

Vaccine effectiveness of heterologous CoronaVac plus BNT162b2 in Brazil [PDF]
AbstractThere is considerable interest in the waning of effectiveness of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines and vaccine effectiveness (VE) of booster doses. Using linked national Brazilian databases, we undertook a test-negative design study involving almost 14 million people (~16 million tests) to estimate VE of CoronaVac over time and VE of

Vaccination and heterologous immunity: educating the immune system [PDF]
This review discusses three inter-related topics: (1) the immaturity of the neonatal and infant immune response; (2) heterologous immunity, where prior infection history with unrelated pathogens alters disease outcome resulting in either enhanced protective immunity or increased immunopathology to new infections, and (3) epidemiological human vaccine ...
