<i>Background</i><br />At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic cervical screening in the capital region of Sweden was cancelled for several months. A series of measures to preserve and improve the cervical screening under the circumstances were instituted, including a switch to screening with HPV self-sampling to enable screening in compliance with social distancing recommendations.<br /><i>Methods</i><br />We describe the major changes implemented, which were i) nationwide implementation of HPV screening ii) switch to primary self-sampling instead of clinician sampling iii) implementation of HPV screening in all screening ages and iv) combined HPV vaccination and HPV screening in the cervical screening program.<br /><i>Results</i><br />A temporary government regulation allowed primary self-sampling with HPV screening in all ages. In the Stockholm region, 330,000 self-sampling kits were sent to the home address of screening-eligible women, instead of an invitation to clinician sampling. A dramatic increase in population test coverage was seen (from 75% to 85% in just one year). In addition, a national campaign for faster elimination of cervical cancer with concomitant screening and vaccination for women in ages 23- 28 was launched.<br /><i>Conclusions</i><br />The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated major changes in the cervical cancer preventive strategies, where it can already be concluded that the strategy with organised primary self-sampling for HPV has resulted in a major improvement of population test-coverage.<br />Funding<br />Funded by the Swedish Association 44 of Local Authorities and Regions, the Swedish Cancer Society, the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Program, the Swedish government and the Stockholm county.

<li><strong>Lost in pandemic time: A phenomenological analysis of temporal disorientation during the Covid-19 crisis</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
People have experienced many forms of temporal disorientation during the Covid-19 crisis. For this study, we collected a rich corpus of reports on the multifaceted experiences of disorientation during the pandemic. In this paper, we study the resulting corpus using a descriptive approach. We identify six emerging themes: temporal rift; temporal vertigo; impoverished time; tunnel vision; spatial and social scaffolding of time; suspended time. We offer a phenomenological analysis of each of the themes. Based on the phenomenological analysis, we draw a key distinction between episodic and existential forms of temporal disorientation, and we argue that the Covid-19 crisis is best conceptualised as a period of suspended time.

<li><strong>Bereavement during lockdown: The potential impact of COVID-19 restrictions on grief and post-traumatic stress disorder in a Turkish population</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
The current study examined whether perceived disruption to bereavement via suppression of sociocultural death rite traditions could be linked to core bereavement and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in Turkish individuals who lost their close relatives to COVID-19. The sample included patients who consulted the clinic, presenting with self-reported bereavement issues related to coping, sleep, and eating, as well as individuals who sought general grief counselling. Participants (n=52) completed a Demographic Information and Bereavement Experience (DIBEF) form with items probing participants’ demographics, experience of attending rituals, and receiving social support. The final item inquired the rating of perceived disruption to bereavement due to COVID-19 restrictions (perceived disruption score-PDS). The Core Bereavement Items (CBI) scale and the Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist-Civilian Version (PCL-C) were also used to measure symptomology. The results revealed that 92.3% of the participants did not receive condolence visitors, 98.1% did not get to say goodbye, and 78.8% were unable to practice their religious duties. Regression analysis suggested that PDS was a significant predictor of the CBI scores while it was not associated with PCL-C scores. The potential role of perceived disruption to bereavement in aggravating the grief response is discussed regarding the dual process model of coping with bereavement. Health authorities should thus introduce additional support mechanisms such as technology-based grief counselling, tailored to cultural values and individual needs. Relevant bodies should also ensure the accessibility of virtual platforms through which individuals could connect with others and participate in rituals during future pandemics or other humanitarian crises.

<li><strong>Specific pandemic-related worries predict higher attention-related errors and negative affect independent of trait anxiety</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Recent surveys have revealed a rise in anxiety levels, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on cognitive-emotional models of anxiety, we predict this increase may be underpinned by pandemic-related worry (PRW), characterised by repetitive negative thinking about pandemic-specific outcomes. We also predicted that PRW would occupy limited capacity cognitive resources required for attentional control, needed for the regulation of worry. We developed a novel instrument to measure the contents of PRW, and to explore its independent relationship with cognitive functioning and negative affect. A five-factor model of PRW was identified in Study 1 (N = 255) and validated in Study 2 (N = 382). In Study 2, regression analyses revealed that worries about the declining quality of life and the probability of COVID-19 infection were the strongest predictors of attention and memory-related errors. We also found that attention-related errors partially mediated the positive relationship between PRW and negative affect. Importantly, all analyses remained significant when controlling for recalled pre-pandemic trait anxiety and worry, suggesting that the relationships reflected elevated anxiety even in those with low levels of trait anxiety. The findings suggest that to support psychological wellbeing in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, support should target specific PRWs.

<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
|

Background: We aimed to estimate vaccine effectiveness (VE) against COVID-19 mortality, and to explore whether an increased risk in non-COVID-19 mortality exists in the weeks following a COVID-19 vaccine dose. Methods: National registries of causes of death, COVID-19 vaccination and long-term care reimbursements were linked by a unique identifier using data from 1 January 2021 to 31 January 2022. We used Cox regression with calendar time as underlying time scale to, firstly, estimate VE against COVID-19 mortality after primary and first booster vaccination, per month since vaccination and, secondly, estimate risk of non-COVID-19 mortality in the 8 weeks following a first, second or booster dose, adjusting for birth year, sex and country of origin. Results: VE against COVID-19 mortality was >90% for all age groups two months after completion of the primary series. VE gradually decreased thereafter, to around 80% at 7-8 months post-primary series for most groups, and around 60% for elderly receiving a high level of long-term care and for people aged 90+ years. The risk of non-COVID-19 mortality was lower or similar in the 8 weeks following a first booster dose compared to no vaccination, first or second dose, respectively, for all age and long-term care groups. Conclusion: COVID-19 vaccination greatly reduced the risk of COVID-19 mortality and no increased risk of death from other causes was seen at the population level.

<li><strong>Learning from pre-pandemic data to forecast viral antibody escape</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
From early detection of variants of concern to vaccine and therapeutic design, pandemic preparedness depends on identifying viral mutations that escape the response of the host immune system. While experimental scans are useful for quantifying escape potential, they remain laborious and impractical for exploring the combinatorial space of mutations. Here we introduce a biologically grounded model to quantify the viral escape potential of mutations at scale. Our method - EVEscape - brings together fitness predictions from evolutionary models, structure-based features that assess antibody binding potential, and distances between mutated and wild-type residues. Unlike other models that predict variants of concern based on newly observed variants, EVEscape has no reliance on recent community prevalence, and is applicable before surveillance sequencing or experimental scans are broadly available. We validate EVEscape predictions against experimental data on H1N1, HIV and SARS-CoV-2, including data on immune escape. For SARS-CoV-2, we show that EVEscape anticipates mutation frequency, strain prevalence, and escape mutations. Drawing from GISAID, we provide continually updated escape predictions for all current strains of SARS-CoV-2.

<li><strong>A linear DNA vaccine candidate encoding the SARS-CoV-2 Receptor Binding Domain elicits protective immunity in domestic cats</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Since its first detection in China in late 2019, SARS-CoV-2, the etiologic agent of COVID-19 pandemic, has infected a wide range of animal species, especially mammals, all over the world. Indeed, as reported by the American Veterinary Medical Association, besides human-to-human transmission, human-to-animal transmission has been observed in some wild animals and pets, especially in cats. With animal models as an invaluable tool in the study of infectious diseases combined with the fact that the intermediate animal source of SARS-CoV-2 is still unknown, researchers have demonstrated that cats are permissive to COVID-19 and are susceptible to airborne infections. Given the high transmissibility potential of SARS-CoV-2 to different host species and the close contact between humans and animals, it is crucial to find mechanisms to prevent the transmission chain and reduce the risk of spillover to susceptible species. Here, we show results from a randomized Phase I/II clinical study conducted in domestic cats to assess safety and immunogenicity of a linear DNA (linDNA) vaccine encoding the RBD domain of SARS-CoV-2. No significant adverse events occurred and both RBD-specific binding/neutralizing antibodies and T cells were detected. These findings demonstrate the safety and immunogenicity of a genetic vaccine against COVID-19 administered to cats and strongly support the development of vaccines for preventing viral spread in susceptible species, especially those in close contact with humans.

<li><strong>Durability of the Neutralizing Antibody Response to mRNA Booster Vaccination Against SARS-CoV-2 BA.2.12.1 and BA.4/5 Variants</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
The recent emergence of the SARS-CoV-2 BA.4/5 and BA.2.12.1 variants has led to rising COVID-19 case numbers and concerns over the continued efficacy of mRNA booster vaccination. Here we examine the durability of neutralizing antibody (nAb) responses against these SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants in a cohort of health care workers 1-40 weeks after mRNA booster dose administration. Neutralizing antibody titers fell by ~1.5-fold 4-6 months and by ~2.5-fold 7-9 months after booster dose, with average nAb titers falling by 11-15% every 30 days, far more stable than two dose induced immunity. Notably, nAb titers from booster recipients against SARS-CoV-2 BA.1, BA.2.12.1, and BA.4/5 variants were ~4.7-, 7.6-, and 13.4-fold lower than against the ancestral D614G spike. However, the rate of waning of booster dose immunity was comparable across variants. Importantly, individuals reporting prior infection with SARS-CoV-2 exhibited significantly higher nAb titers compared to those without breakthrough infection. Collectively, these results highlight the broad and stable neutralizing antibody response induced by mRNA booster dose administration, implicating a significant role of virus evolution to evade nAb specificity, versus waning humoral immunity, in increasing rates of breakthrough infection.

Objectives We aimed to quantify transmission trends in South Africa during the first four waves of the COVID-19 pandemic using estimates of the time-varying reproduction number (R) and to compare the robustness of R estimates based on three different data sources and using data from public and private sector service providers. Methods We estimated R from March 2020 through April 2022, nationally and by province, based on time series of rt-PCR-confirmed cases, hospitalizations, and hospital-associated deaths, using a method which models daily incidence as a weighted sum of past incidence. We also estimated R separately using public and private sector data. Results Nationally, the maximum case-based R following the introduction of lockdown measures was 1.55 (CI: 1.43-1.66), 1.56 (CI: 1.47-1.64), 1.46 (CI: 1.38-1.53) and 3.33 (CI: 2.84-3.97) during the first (Wuhan-Hu), second (Beta), third (Delta), and fourth (Omicron) waves respectively. Estimates based on the three data sources (cases, hospitalisations, deaths) were generally similar during the first three waves but cases-based estimates were higher during the fourth wave. Public and private sector R estimates were generally similar except during the initial lockdowns and in case-based estimates during the fourth wave. Discussion Agreement between R estimates using different data sources during the first three waves suggests data from any of these sources could be used in early stages of a future pandemic. High R estimates for Omicron relative to earlier waves is interesting given a high level of exposure pre-Omicron. The agreement between public and private sector R estimates highlights the fact that clients of the public and private sectors did not experience two separate epidemics, except perhaps to a limited extent during the strictest lockdowns during the first wave.

Background Given a downward age shift in COVID-19-involved deaths observed during the COVID-19 pandemic, we sought to estimate years of life lost (YLL) associated with leading causes of US death during the first 20 months of the pandemic. Findings Despite 4796 fewer COVID-19 deaths in Jan-Oct 2021 than in Mar-Dec 2020, the number of YLL due to COVID-19 increased by 1,159,761, from 4,474,186 to 5,633,947 (a 25.9% increase). YLL per COVID-19 death increased from 12.8 in 2020 to 16.3 in 2021, a 27.7% increase. YLL per death did not change by more than 2.3% for any other cause. Interpretation Increased YLL per COVID-19 death in 2021 result from younger-age COVID-19 mortality, contributing to a marked increase in YLL from this preventable cause of death at a later stage of the pandemic despite advancements in vaccines in treatments.

The COVID-19 pandemic has burdened the public health system in the Philippines since January 2020. In Western Visayas (Region 6), Philippines, issues have been raised on the limitations of the government’s response on testing, contact tracing, and augmentation of healthcare facilities. Using data from the Western Visayas - Regional Epidemiologic Surveillance Unit (WV - RESU) from March 20 – June 20, 2020, the following observations were made: 1) Of the 6 provinces, Iloilo had the highest % tests done per capita which may be linked to the presence of the only regional COVID-19 testing facility in the province at that time, 2) There were delays in the overall processing times for specimens from Antique and Negros Occidental which may be linked to transport logistics and/or laboratory processing, 3) Contact tracing and testing were de-linked – tracing was adequate (3,420/3,503, 97.63%), but less than 50% of these (1,668/3,420) were tested, 4) Hospital and quarantine facility capacities were still adequate, but their utilization rates needed to be monitored continuously for further augmentation, if needed. This data shows the challenges of establishing a pandemic response in one of the regions in the Philippines.

AusVaxSafety (the Australian active safety surveillance system) used SMS/email delivered surveys to actively solicit the short-term (within first 3 days after vaccination) adverse event profile of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines in children (aged 5-15 years) by age, dose, brand and pre-existing comorbidity. 392,268 survey responses for children aged 5-15 who received a COVID-19 vaccine between July 2021 and May 2022 (211,994 following BNT162b2 10mcg in children aged 5-11 years, 173,329 following BNT162b2 30mcg and 6,945 following mRNA-1273 100mcg in adolescents aged 12-15 years) were analysed. Adverse event rates were higher following dose 2 and 3 compared to dose 1 after all vaccines and highest following dose 2 of mRNA-1273 in 12-15 years. Fever was low in the youngest children (5 years old, any dose; 1,090/26,181 (4%)). Medical review rates remained low (0.3% overall) and impact on daily activities was also low (7% overall). No self-reported cases of myocarditis or pericarditis were identified. Ongoing active safety surveillance of lower dose mRNA vaccines in children under 5 years old is required to better understand safety as the vaccines roll out into this population age-group.

<div>
|

<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
|
||
Background: Data from previous studies of the MVC-COV1901 vaccine, a subunit vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 based on the stable prefusion spike protein (S-2P) adjuvanted with CpG 1018 adjuvant and aluminum hydroxide, suggest that the vaccine is generally safe and elicits a good immune response in healthy adults and adolescents. By comparing with AZD1222, this study adds to the findings from previous trials and further evaluates the breadth of protection offered by MVC-COV1901. Methods : In this phase 3, parallel group, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial conducted in 2 sites in Paraguay, we assigned adults aged 18 to 91 years in a 1:1 ratio to receive intramuscular doses of MVC-COV1901 or AZD1222 administered as scheduled in the clinical trial. Serum samples were collected on the day of vaccination and 14 days after the second dose. Primary and secondary safety and immunogenicity endpoints were assessed. In addition, other outcomes investigated were cross-reactive immunity against the Omicron strain and the induction of IgG subclasses. Results : A total of 1,030 participants underwent randomization. Safety data was derived from this set while primary immunogenicity data involved a per-protocol immunogenicity (PPI) subset including 225 participants. Among the participants, 58% are seropositive at baseline. When compared against AZD1222, MVC-COV1901 exhibited superiority in terms of neutralizing antibody titers and non-inferiority in terms of seroconversion rates. Reactogenicity was generally mild and no serious adverse event was attributable to MVC-COV1901. Both vaccines have a Th1-biased response predominated by the production of IgG1 and IgG3 subclasses. Omicron-neutralizing titers were 44.5 times lower compared to wildtype-neutralizing titers among seronegative individuals at baseline. This fold-reduction was 3.0 times among the seropositive. Conclusion: Results presented here demonstrate the safe and robust immunogenicity from MVC-COV1901. Previous infection coupled with vaccination of this vaccine may offer protection against the Omicron strain though its durability is still unknown.

Background Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a new emerging coronavirus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Whole-genome tracking of the SARS-CoV-2 enhanced our understanding of the mechanism of disease, control, and prevent COVID-19 infections. Materials and Methods In the current study, we investigated 1221 SARS-CoV-2 protein sequences of Iranian SARS-CoV-2 in the public database of the GISAID from January 2019 to April 2022. Prepare a list of suitable samples and preprocess performed by python programming language. To compare and identify mutation patterns SARS-CoV-2 genome was aligned to the Wuhan-Hu-1 as a reference sequence. Results Our investigation revealed that spike-P323L, ORF9c-G50N, NSP14-I42V, spike-D614G, NSP4-T492I, nucleocapsid-R203K, nucleocapsid-G204R, membrane-A63T, membrane-Q19E, NSP5-P132H, envelope-T9I, NSP3-G489S, ORF3a-T24I, membrane-D3G, spike-S477N, Spike-D478K, nucleocapsid-S235F, spike-N501Y, nucleocapsid-D3L, and spike-P861H as the most frequent mutations among the Iranian SARS-COV-2 sequences. Furthermore, it was observed that more than 95 % of the SARS-CoV-2 genome, including NSP7, NSP8, NSP9, NSP10, NSP11, and ORF8, had no mutation when compared to the Wuhan-Hu-1. Finally, our data indicated the ORF3a-T24I, NSP3-G489S, NSP5-P132H, NSP14-I42V, envelope-T9I, nucleocapsid-D3L, membrane-Q19E, and membrane-A63T mutations might be one of the responsible factors for the surge in the SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant wave in Iran. Discussion Our results highlight the value of real-time genomic surveillance that help to identify novel SARS-CoV-2 variants and could be applied to update SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic tools, vaccine design, and understanding of the mechanisms of adaptation to a new host environment.

Background There is inconclusive evidence of whether pregnancy exacerbates COVID-19 symptoms or not, and scarce data from the Middle East and North Africa region. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between pregnancy and COVID-19 symptoms in Qatar. Methods This cross-sectional study was carried out using data of all women with confirmed COVID-19, comparing pregnant and non-pregnant women of child-bearing age (18-49 years). Data of all COVID-19 cases were collected by the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) in Qatar, between March and September 2020. Symptoms were compared by pregnancy status and classified into moderate and severe. Multivariable logistic and poisson regression was carried out to investigate the association between pregnancy and severity of COVID-19 symptoms. Results During the study period, 105744 individuals were diagnosed with COVID-19, 16908 were women of childbearing age. From that sample, 799 women who were pregnant (mean age 29.9 years (SD 5.2)) and 16109 women who were not pregnant (mean age 33.1 years (SD 7.8)). After multivariable logistic regression, pregnancy was associated with a 1.4-fold higher odds of reporting any symptoms of COVID-19 (OR 1.41, 95% CI 1.18-1.68), and 1.3-fold higher odds of reporting shortness of breath (OR 1.29, 95% CI 1.02-1.63). After multivariable poisson regression, pregnancy was also associated with a higher number of symptoms (IRR 1.03, 95%CI 0.98-1.08). Conclusion Our findings suggest that, in this setting, pregnant women are more likely to have symptomatic COVID-19, and shortness of breath, compared to non-pregnant women of childbearing age.
