Approaches to Next-Generation Capripoxvirus and Monkeypox Virus Vaccines
Globally, there are two major poxvirus outbreaks: mpox, caused by the monkeypox virus, and lumpy skin disease, caused by the lumpy skin disease virus. While vaccines for both diseases exist, there is a need for improved vaccines.

The Paediatric BCG Vaccine Century: From Historical Success to Future Innovations
ABSTRACT Aim The tuberculosis (TB) vaccine, Bacille‐Calmette‐Guérin (BCG), protects infants against severe forms of primary TB. Yet, it does not protect against pulmonary reactivation TB in adults. Methods A literature review was conducted between 1st January and 28th February 2025 using PubMed, Google Scholar and reports of the World Health ...

Mpox and the Ethics of Outbreak Management: Lessons for Future Public Health Crises
ABSTRACT Mpox, first identified in captive monkeys in 1958 and recognized in humans by 1970 in the Democratic Republic of Congo, was historically confined to sporadic zoonotic outbreaks in Central and West Africa. These outbreaks, often driven by rodent‐to‐human transmission in resource‐limited settings, reflect persistent systemic health disparities ...

Humoral epitope dominance and immune imprinting by SARS‐CoV‐1 and SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccines
We investigated Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vaccine candidates expressing the SARS‐CoV‐1 or SARS‐CoV‐2 Spike, as a primary or booster immunization, for their ability to induce antibodies targeting different epitopes on the SARS‐CoV‐2 RBD and broad cross‐reactive or cross‐neutralizing responses in C57BL/6 and antibody humanized (Ig‐humanized) mice ...
