Bordetella pertussis causes whooping cough and is re-emerging in developed countries despite widespread immunization with acellular pertussis vaccines (Pa), which are less effective than the whole cell vaccines that they replaced. Efficacy of Pa could be improved by switching from alum to alternative adjuvants that generate more potent cell mediated immunity.

China witnessed an Omicron COVID-19 outbreak at the end of 2022. During this period, medical crowding and enormous pressure on the healthcare systems occurred, which might result in the occurrence of occupational burnout among healthcare workers (HCWs). This study aims to investigate the prevalence of occupational burnout and associated mental conditions, such as depressive symptoms, anxiety, PTSD symptoms, perceived social support, resilience, and mindfulness among HCWs of the Chinese mainland during the Omicron COVID-19 outbreak, and to explore the potential risk and protective factors influencing occupational burnout of HCWs.

A dynamics informed neural networks (DINNs) incorporating the susceptible-exposed-infectious-recovered-vaccinated (SEIRV) model was developed to enhance the understanding of the temporal evolution dynamics of infectious diseases. This work integrates differential equations with deep neural networks to predict time-varying parameters in the SEIRV model. Experimental results based on reported data from China between January 1, and December 1, 2022, demonstrate that the proposed dynamics informed neural networks (DINNs) method can accurately learn the dynamics and predict future states.

Introduction: Large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT can potentially transform the delivery of health information. This study aims to evaluate the accuracy and completeness of ChatGPT in responding to questions on recombinant zoster vaccination (RZV) in patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using 20 prompts based on information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), and the American College of Rheumatology (ACR).

Background: The underlying causes for lower rotavirus vaccine effectiveness (VE) in high-child-mortality settings are not well understood. Uganda introduced the human monovalent G1P[8] rotavirus vaccine (Rotarix) in June 2018. We determined the effectiveness of Rotarix against rotavirus diarrhea requiring hospital care among Ugandan children.
