Early viral exposure in mice weakens vaccine response, raising questions for human studies

Researchers at Washington University have demonstrated that early life exposure to multiple viruses in house mice dampens the immune response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations later in life. The study raises concerns about the applicability of common mouse models in immunological research, suggesting that prior pathogen exposure could be a significant variable in predicting vaccine efficacy.

Intensive fasting boosts red blood cells' immune powers against COVID-19, study finds

Researchers found that short-term intensive fasting enhances the immune function of red blood cells, including their ability to combat SARS-CoV-2, without affecting their oxygen-carrying capacity. The study reveals that this fasting regimen popular in Asia could offer a multifaceted benefit by amplifying the body's defenses without compromising essential functions.

Boosters slow antibody waning but hit a ceiling: Long-term COVID study reveals limits of immunity

The study tracks the long-term kinetics of antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 after vaccination and infections in New York healthcare workers from 2020 to 2023. It reveals that antibody waning is slower after booster shots, but there's an upper limit to antibody levels, which gradually lowers with repeated SARS-CoV-2 exposures and vaccinations.
