概要 | Now that great effectiveness of intramuscular delivery of messenger RNA vaccines against COVID-19 has been proven, it becomes one of critical issues to maintain the immune potency. Intranasal vaccination has an advantage of easy self-administration but some difficulties in the vaccine formulation for effective mucosal immunization. The potency of the COVID-19 booster vaccination could be monitored even at home by SARS-CoV-2 specific IgA (as local immunity) and IgG (as systemic immunity) in the saliva. Such a safe and feasible strategy to boost the immunity is proposed, especially for vulnerable people, when the COVID-19 booster vaccination is beginning. |
