Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has rapidly evolved since late 2019, due to highly transmissible Omicron variants. While most Canadian paramedics have received COVID-19 vaccination, the optimal ongoing vaccination strategy is unclear. We investigated neutralizing antibody (NtAb) response against wild-type (WT) Wuhan Hu-1 and Omicron BA.4/5 lineages based on the number of doses and past SARS-CoV-2 infection, at 18 months post-initial vaccination (with a Wuhan Hu-1 platform mRNA vaccine [BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273]). Demographic information, previous COVID-19 vaccination, infection history, and blood samples were collected from paramedics 18 months post-initial mRNA COVID-19 vaccine dose. Outcome measures were ACE2 percent inhibition against Omicron BA.4/5 and WT antigens. We compared outcomes based on number of vaccine doses (two vs. three) and previous SARS-CoV-2 infection status, using the Mann-Whitney U test. Of 657 participants, the median age was 40 years (IQR 33-50) and 251 (42 %) were females. Overall, median percent inhibition to BA.4/5 and WT was 71.61 % (IQR 39.44-92.82) and 98.60 % (IQR 83.07-99.73), respectively. Those with a past SARS-CoV-2 infection had a higher median percent inhibition to BA.4/5 and WT, when compared to uninfected individuals overall and when stratified by two or three vaccine doses. When comparing two vs. three WT vaccine doses among SARS-CoV-2 negative participants, we did not detect a difference in BA.4/5 percent inhibition, but there was a difference in WT percent inhibition. Among those with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection(s), when comparing two vs. three WT vaccine doses, there was no observed difference between groups. These findings demonstrate that additional Whttps://www.covid19immunitytaskforce.ca/citf-databank/#accessing https://www.covid19immunitytaskforce.ca/citf-databank/#accessinguhan Hu-1 platform mRNA vaccines did not improve NtAb response to BA.4/5, but prior SARS-CoV-2 infection enhances NtAb response.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
