New modeling on efficacy of BioNTech-Pfizer's SARS-CoV-2 vaccine against variants

In order to address these issues, scientists from Xitific LTD and IDEAPharma in the UK proposed a novel approach to the framework of immune correlates, built upon the previous research. The framework formulated by the authors was developed for the mRNA-based vaccinations but could be applied to the other variations.
