💉 After two doses of adenovirus-based or mRNA-based #COVID vaccine, cytokine and adaptive immune responses to #SARSCoV2 were similar between the #BCGvaccine and Control groups indicating that the specific effects of #COVID19 vaccines overcame the immunomodulatory effects of BCG. 💪

🔬 Before #COVID-19 vaccination (almost a year after randomisation), healthcare workers who received #BCGVaccine had reduced cytokine responses to #SARSCoV2 compared to controls, indicating BCG-induced immunomodulation.

Older neonates (>10 days) have stronger IFN-γ and IFN-γ-inducible chemokine responses to P. falciparum in vitro #malaria #ImmunoSky
