Link between COVID-19 vaccine complication and rare 'common cold' blood disease
At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021, VITT emerged as a new disease following adenovirus vector-based vaccines—notably the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine. VITT was found to be caused by an ...

Vector-Based Vaccines Come to the Fore in the COVID-19 Pandemic
An upside of using vectored vaccines is that they are easy and relatively cheap to make. The adenovirus vector, for example, can be grown up in cells and used for various vaccines. Once you make a ...

Building a better COVID-19 vaccine
One avenue for new vaccine development is mucosal vaccines. In theory, dosing the vaccine directly into the respiratory tract allows for robust antibody and T-cell responses where SARS-CoV-2 generally ...
