Cross-protection against epidemic and pandemic H3N2 influenza viruses in humans and swine by vaccination with heterovariant strains Ghent University
Subsequent vaccination with antigenically very distinct influenza viruses of a given HA subtype (heterovariant vaccination) seems to be very effective in stimulating memory B cells that recognize conserved epitopes in the viral haemagglutinin (HA) and that produce broadly-reactive antibodies. Using this vaccination strategy we aim at a) protecting swine against European and North American H3N2 swine influenza viruses and b) protecting humans ...

An integrated systems thinking approach to enhance vaccination strategies KU Leuven
The immunization system is highly complex, consisting of multiple interrelated and interacting subsystems . At the supply side, this starts with R&D (‘Innovations’-part), manufacturing, regulatory evaluation, pricing, reimbursement, distribution, clinical adoption (all in ‘National Health Program’-part), up to final product administration (‘Service Delivery’) to make sure that the vaccine ultimately reaches the people to be vaccinated ...
