Pharmacy‐Based Immunization Delivery: A Comprehensive History and Current Challenges
ABSTRACT Pharmacists and their teams have a long history of involvement with vaccines. This paper describes the contributions of pharmacy‐based immunization delivery in the United States from the 1800's to date. Early activities centered around storage and distribution of antitoxins and vaccines. From the 1950s through the early 1990s, pharmacists were

Who invented vaccination? [PDF]
Edward Jenner, whose ‘Inquiry’ (1798)1 was the first published report of vaccination against smallpox, is widely seen as the inventor of vaccination. However, other individuals could lay claim to this title, notably his contemporaries, Benjamin Jesty and

Repurposed Medicines for Viruses With Epidemic or Pandemic Potential: A Horizon Scan
ABSTRACT Viruses such as Ebola, Marburg, influenza, mpox, MERS‐CoV, SARS‐CoV, and SARS‐CoV‐2 may be considered pathogens of epidemic or pandemic concern. Developing novel antiviral medicines can be time‐consuming and resource intensive. Repurposing existing medicines with known or potential antiviral activity offers a faster, cost‐effective strategy to

Assessing Risk Thresholds in Controlled Human Infection Models (CHIM)
ABSTRACT Controlled Human Infection Models (CHIMs) are a type of clinical trial involving deliberately exposing human volunteers to an infectious agent. Compared to studies of natural infection, CHIMs offers distinctive benefits, from the ability to study presymptomatic infection to a direct assessment of the efficacy of vaccines and therapeutics in a ...

Relevance. After vaccination against smallpox is completed, more than 50% of the population are not immune to pathogens of the genus Orthopoxvirus, which creates the risk of mass infection if the smallpox virus is used as a biological weapon.Aim.

The Immunogenetics of Smallpox Vaccination [PDF]
We hypothesized that individuals who develop fever after smallpox vaccination have genetically determined differences in their immune responses to vaccinia virus. We looked for an association between the development of fever and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 19 candidate genes in 346 individuals previously assessed for clinical responses to

A low‐cost, portable point‐of‐care platform for rapid Mpox detection using loop‐mediated isothermal amplification is reported. The device integrates fluorescence readout and mobile monitoring. A machine‐learning model analyzes temperature data and correlates thermal changes with DNA concentration, enabling sensitive and reliable molecular diagnosis in ...

Repurpose an FDA‐Approved Antibody Using DARPin‐Scaffolded Bridge Protein
The cell line and scalable upstream/downstream process development needed for every new monoclonal antibody are both highly expensive and time‐consuming, significantly increasing the cost of new antibody therapeutics. By contrast, the production of many synthetic binders can be accomplished rapidly and with lower production costs.

Clonal vaccinia virus grown in cell culture as a new smallpox vaccine
Although the smallpox virus was eradicated over 20 years ago, its potential release through bioterrorism has generated renewed interest in vaccination.
