Nasal prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection by intranasal influenza-based boost vaccination

R. Zhou, P. Wang, Y.-C. Wong, H. Xu, S.-Y. Lau, L. Liu, B. W.-Y. Mok, Q. Peng, N. Liu, S. Deng, R. C.-Y. Tam, H. Huang, A. J. Zhang, D. Zhou, B. Zhou, , Z. Chen

This study shows that intranasal influenza-based boost vaccination enhances mucosal and systemic immunity against SARS-CoV-2, effectively preventing infection in both upper and lower respiratory systems.
