Keep calm and carry on vaccinating: Is anti-vaccination sentiment contributing to declining vaccine coverage in England?

Background: In England, coverage for childhood vaccines have decreased since 2012/13 in the context of an increasingly visible anti-vaccination discourse. We determined whether anti-vaccination sentiment is the likely cause of this decline in coverage. Met ...

Virucidal nanomaterials against influenza

Özgün Kocabiyik

Influenza affects millions of people in all parts of the world. The fact that influenza virus can spread through air increases the chance of influenza outbreaks. There are 3 to 5 million severe cases of influenza resulting in 290,000 to 650,000 deaths ever ...

Assessing the Dynamics and Control of Droplet- and Aerosol-Transmitted Influenza Using an Indoor Positioning System

Marcel Salathé, Gianrocco Lazzari

There is increasing evidence that aerosol transmission is a major contributor to the spread of influenza. Despite this, virtually all studies assessing the dynamics and control of influenza assume that it is transmitted solely through direct contact and la ...

Three-Dimensional Model and Evaluation of an Insulin Injection Pen for Precise Dose Capacitive Measurement

Catherine Dehollain, Maria-Alexandra Paun, Jean-Baptiste Robert Orhan

A fully parameterized three-dimensional model with specific dimensions has been developed in ANSYS for an insulin injection pen used by diabetic persons. The insulin injection pen has a smart pen cap which hosts four electrodes used for the smart pen cap e ...

Interplay between cost and benefits triggers nontrivial vaccination uptake

Paolo De Los Rios, Alessio Vincenzo Cardillo

The containment of epidemic spreading is a major challenge in science. Vaccination, whenever available, is the best way to prevent the spreading, because it eventually immunizes individuals. However, vaccines are not perfect, and total immunization is not ...

Broad-spectrum non-toxic antiviral nanoparticles with a virucidal inhibition mechanism

Francesco Stellacci, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Ahmet Bekdemir, Valeria Cagno, Emma-Rose Janecek, Samuel Thomas Jones, Marie Mueller

Viral infections kill millions yearly. Available antiviral drugs are virus-specific and active against a limited panel of human pathogens. There are broad-spectrum substances that prevent the first step of virus–cell interaction by mimicking heparan sulfat ...

Critical dynamics in population vaccinating behavior

Marcel Salathé, Sharada Prasanna Mohanty

Vaccine refusal can lead to renewed outbreaks of previously eliminated diseases and even delay global eradication. Vaccinating decisions exemplify a complex, coupled system where vaccinating behavior and disease dynamics influence one another. Such systems ...

Toll-like receptor 8 agonist nanoparticles mimic immunomodulating effects of the live BCG vaccine and enhance neonatal innate and adaptive immune responses

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Sachiko Hirosue, Alexandre de Titta, Daniel Kenneth Bonner

Background: Newborns display distinct immune responses, leaving them vulnerable to infections and impairing immunization. Targeting newborn dendritic cells (DCs), which integrate vaccine signals into adaptive immune responses, might enable development of a ...

Genetic characterization of an adapted pandemic 2009 H1N1 influenza virus that reveals improved replication rates in human lung epithelial cells

Christian Sieben

The 2009 influenza pandemic originated from a swine-origin H1N1 virus, which, although less pathogenic than anticipated, may acquire additional virulence-associated mutations in the future. To estimate the potential risk, we sequentially passaged the isola ...

Tailored Immunogens Direct Affinity Maturation toward HIV Neutralizing Antibodies

Fabian Sesterhenn

Induction of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) is a primary goal of HIV vaccine development. VRC01-class bnAbs are important vaccine leads because their precursor B cells targeted by an engineered priming immunogen are relatively common among humans. ...
