Open AccessEnhanced cholera surveillance to improve vaccination campaign efficiency
Systematic testing for Vibrio cholerae O1 is rare, which means that the world’s limited supply of oral cholera vaccines (OCVs) may not be delivered to areas with the highest true cholera burden. Here we used a ph...

Open AccessClinical surveillance systems obscure the true cholera infection burden in an endemic region
Our understanding of cholera transmission and burden largely relies on clinic-based surveillance, which can obscure trends, bias burden estimates and limit the impact of targeted cholera-prevention measures. S...

Open AccessLong term anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody kinetics and correlate of protection against Omicron BA.1/BA.2 infection
Binding antibody levels against SARS-CoV-2 have shown to be correlates of protection against infection with pre-Omicron lineages. This has been challenged by the emergence of immune-evasive variants, notably t...
