Impact of network assortativity on epidemic and vaccination behaviour [PDF]
chaos, solitons & fractals,140:110143, 2020, 2020 The resurgence of measles is largely attributed to the decline in vaccine adoption and the increase in mobility. Although the vaccine for measles is readily available and highly successful, its current adoption is not adequate to prevent epidemics. Vaccine adoption is directly affected by individual vaccination decisions, and has a complex interplay ...

A highly immunogenic and effective measles virus-based Th1-biased COVID-19 vaccine
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance The COVID-19 pandemic has already caused over 1 million deaths. Therefore, effective vaccine concepts are urgently needed. In search of such a concept, we have analyzed a measles virus-based vaccine candidate targeting SARS-CoV-2. Using this
