Adjuvanted subunit intranasal vaccine reduces SARS-CoV-2 onward transmission in hamsters by Yongjun Sui, Swagata Kar, Bhavna Chawla, Tanya Hoang, YuanKai Yu, Shannon M. Wallace, Hanne Andersen, Jay A. Berzofsky

“…As a subunit intranasal COVID-19 vaccine reduced nasopharyngeal virus more than did an intramuscular (IM) vaccine, we hypothesized that this vaccine might reduce onward transmission to others.MethodsWe vaccinated hamsters with either the IM-administrated licensed mRNA vaccine twice or one dose of mRNA IM followed by adjuvanted subunit intranasal vaccine. 24 hours after SARS-CoV-2 challenge, these animals were housed with naïve recipients in a contactless chamber that allows airborne transmission.ResultsOnward airborne transmission was profoundly blocked: the donor and recipients of the intranasal vaccine-boosted group had lower oral and lung viral loads (VL), which correlated with mucosal ACE2 inhibition activity. …”

Preliminary results of open comparative randomized study PHG-M3/P01-09 «ORION» on application of «Phosphogliv» in combined therapy of chronic hepatitis C by M. V. Mayevskaya

“…Analysis of cases with rapid virologic response (absence of HCV RNA or its level less than 750 copies/ml) within 4 wks of treatment has shown, that only the group phosphogliv/standard interferon α-2b/ribavirin included 3 such cases and that was especially important – all had the 1-st virus genotype. This fact assumes, that phosphogliv can enhance efficacy of standard treatment as adjuvant to antiviral therapy. …”
