Introduction: Several sub-Saharan African countries are launching malaria vaccination programmes for children. We assessed how attitudes to malaria vaccination for children could be better understood by considering the individual dynamics of COVID-19 vaccine intention/uptake over the 2021-2023 campaigns, with a view to highlighting barriers likely to affect malaria vaccine uptake.
Methods: We conducted a six-wave telephone-based survey of 600 randomly selected Senegalese households.

Innate-like T cells (ILT), including γδ T cells (Vδ2s), Natural Killer T cells (NKTs) and Mucosal-associated Invariant T cells (MAITs), integrate innate and adaptive immunity, playing important roles in homeostatic conditions as well as during infection or inflammation. ILT are present on both sides of the fetal-maternal interface, but our knowledge of their phenotypical and functional features in neonates is limited. Using spectral flow cytometry we characterized cord blood ILT in neonates born to healthy women and women living with HIV.

The global distribution of Plasmodium vivax Circumsporozoite Protein variants (PvCSP), VK210, VK247, and P. vivax-like, plays a crucial role in malaria transmission and vaccine development. This systematic review and meta-analysis assessed the prevalence of these variants in humans and their association with Anopheles species worldwide.

The Cox model and its extensions assuming proportional hazards is widely used to estimate vaccine efficacy (VE). However, when VE wanes over time, estimates can become sensitive to study duration and timing of vaccine delivery relative to disease seasonality, and may be biased due to sample attrition. Additionally, estimates of vaccine impact such as number of cases averted (NCA) are sensitive to background disease incidence and timing of vaccine delivery.
