Among 13,137 children at risk in Central Catalonia, average influenza vaccination coverage was only 28.8%; just 7.1% were vaccinated for 5 consecutive seasons. Stronger promotion and continuity are needed. #USRCatCentral

In a survey of 388 families, 53.6% supported routine influenza vaccination, yet 53.1% did not plan vaccination in 2023/24. Paediatrician advice was a key driver; safety concerns and lack of information remained barriers. #USRCatCentral

In an interrupted time-series study in Central Catalonia, the new paediatric influenza vaccination programme was not yet associated with fewer influenza cases or hospitalisations in its early phase. Longer follow-up is needed. #USRCatCentral

🌟L'equip de recerca de la #usrcatcentral ha participat en un estudi clau sobre la immunitat cel·lular enfront de variants de SARS-CoV-2. El treball demostra com el primer contacte amb l'antigen (infecció o vacuna) modela la resposta T tres anys després www.journalofinfection.com/article/S016...
Initial antigen encounter determines robust T-cell immunity against SARS-CoV-2 BA.2.86 variant three years later
We aimed to evaluate the adaptive immune responses' cross-recognition of the hypermutated SARS-CoV-2 BA.2.86 variant and identify the determinants influencing this recognition.
