AI Article Synopsis

  • A study tested plasma samples from 1596 donors who reported COVID-19 symptoms after donating blood for SARS-CoV-2 RNA and specific antibodies.* -
  • Results showed that having prior infection or vaccination provided protection against developing SARS-CoV-2 RNAemia and symptomatic infection.* -
  • The rates of RNAemia remained consistent regardless of whether the samples were taken during the Delta or Omicron variant phases.*

Article Abstract

Presymptomatic plasma samples from 1596 donors reporting coronavirus disease 2019 infection or symptoms after blood donation were tested for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA and anti-S and anti-N antibodies. Prior infection and vaccination both protected from developing SARS-CoV-2 RNAemia and from symptomatic infection. RNAemia rates did not differ in the Delta and Omicron variant eras.

Safety and immunogenicity of an mRNA-1273 vaccine booster in adolescents.

Hum Vaccin Immunother

December 2025

Research and Development, Infectious Disease, Moderna, Inc., Cambridge, MA, USA.

Safety, immunogenicity, and effectiveness of an mRNA-1273 50-μg booster were evaluated in adolescents (12-17 years), with and without pre-booster SARS-CoV-2 infection. Participants who had received the 2-dose mRNA-1273 100-µg primary series in the TeenCOVE trial (NCT04649151) were offered the mRNA-1273 50-μg booster. Primary objectives included safety and inference of effectiveness by establishing noninferiority of neutralizing antibody (nAb) responses after the booster compared with the nAb post-primary series of mRNA-1273 among young adults in COVE (NCT04470427).

Background: The development of bivalent or multivalent vaccines offers a promising strategy for combating SARS-CoV-2 mutations.

Research Design And Methods: In this phase 2 trial, conducted from 1 December 2021, to 25 July 2023, 392 unvaccinated adults aged ≥18 years were randomized to receive a primary series of two doses and a booster dose of SCTV01C, a bivalent protein SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.

Results: Geometric mean titers (GMTs) of neutralizing antibodies (nAb) against live Alpha, Beta, Delta, and Omicron showed 85.

Viral variant and host vaccination status impact infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), yet how these factors shift cellular responses in the human nasal mucosa remains uncharacterized. We performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) on nasopharyngeal swabs from vaccinated and unvaccinated adults with acute Delta and Omicron SARS-CoV-2 infections and integrated with data from acute infections with ancestral SARS-CoV-2. Patients with Delta and Omicron exhibited greater similarity in nasal cell composition driven by myeloid, T cell and SARS-CoV-2 cell subsets, which was distinct from that of ancestral cases.

Analysis of longitudinal social media for monitoring symptoms during a pandemic.

J Biomed Inform

January 2025

School of Public Health, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310058 China; Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA. Electronic address:

Objective: Current studies leveraging social media data for disease monitoring face challenges like noisy colloquial language and insufficient tracking of user disease progression in longitudinal data settings. This study aims to develop a pipeline for collecting, cleaning, and analyzing large-scale longitudinal social media data for disease monitoring, with a focus on COVID-19 pandemic.

Materials And Methods: This pipeline initiates by screening COVID-19 cases from tweets spanning February 1, 2020, to April 30, 2022.

Background: The unrelenting emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants has significantly challenged the efficacy of existing COVID-19 vaccines. Enhancing the stability and immunogenicity of the spike protein is critical for improving vaccine performance and addressing variant-driven immune evasion.

Methods: We developed an mRNA-based vaccine, RV-1730, encoding the Delta variant spike protein with the S6P mutation to enhance stability and immunogenicity.
