Lancet Infect Dis

December 2024

Department of Virology, Institut National de la Recherche Biomédicale, Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo; Department of Medical Biology, Cliniques Universitaires de Kinshasa, University of Kinshasa, Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Background: The recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus-Zaire Ebola virus (rVSV-ZEBOV) vaccine is the only WHO prequalified vaccine recommended for use to respond to outbreaks of Ebola virus (species Zaire ebolavirus) by WHO's Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization. Despite the vaccine's widespread use during several outbreaks, no real-world effectiveness estimates are currently available in the literature.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective test-negative analysis to estimate effectiveness of rVSV-ZEBOV vaccination against Ebola virus disease during the 2018-20 epidemic in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, using data on suspected Ebola virus disease cases collected from Ebola treatment centres.
