Background: New respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccines have been approved in the USA for the prevention of RSV-associated lower respiratory tract disease in adults aged 60 years and older. Information on the real-world effectiveness of these vaccines is needed.
Methods: We used electronic health records in the Veterans Health Administration to emulate a target trial comparing a single dose of a recombinant stabilised prefusion F protein RSV vaccine versus no vaccination among veterans aged 60 years and older.

Unlabelled: Neuraminidase (NA)-specific antibodies contribute to immunity against influenza. While studies have demonstrated increased NA inhibiting (NAI) antibody titers after vaccination with egg-derived inactivated influenza vaccines (eIIV), the response to cell culture-derived (c) IIV has not been reported.
Methods: An immunogenicity sub-study was performed within a clinical trial comparing the effectiveness of egg, cell, and recombinant hemagglutinin (HA)-derived influenza vaccines during the 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 influenza seasons.

Introduction: Older adults with serious mental illness (SMI) experience higher rates of medical comorbidities, mortality, hospital readmissions, and total healthcare spending when compared with Medicare beneficiaries without SMI. Although telehealth provides an opportunity to overcome barriers to behavioral healthcare access, older adults face unique challenges when accessing and utilizing telehealth services. We present Author Health's care model, which integrates virtual-first behavioral health care with an interdisciplinary approach to health-related social needs (HRSN) screening and intervention in older adults.
