TL;DR: A mathematical model of the generation of immune memory and antibody in response to hepatitis B vaccines is constructed and provides theoretical support for the hypothesis that a single vaccine dose can generate protective immune memory.

TL;DR: It is argued that there will be a need to develop local quantitative expertise to support elimination efforts and that locally tailored quantitative analyses can help achieve sustainable and effective control of NTDs, but also underpin the development of local health care systems.

TL;DR: RSV strain diversity in Dadaab was similar to contemporaneous diversity worldwide, suggested both between-epidemic persistence and new introductions, and was unrelated to the unusual epidemic pattern.

TL;DR: An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the detection of RSV-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgA is evaluated by using oral-fluid samples collected from individuals with RSV infections confirmed by an immunofluorescent antibody test, showing significant promise for the use of oral fluid alone in RSV infection surveillance.

TL;DR: The authors reported dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2) sequence data from 10 clinical samples, including 5 complete genome sequences of the cosmopolitan genotype, obtained from febrile adults seeking outpatient care in coastal Kenya.
