Recurrence of Herpetic Keratitis after COVID-19 Vaccination: A Report of Two Cases by Ali Mahdavi Fard, Jeffrey Desilets, Sangita Patel

“…The COVID-19 vaccines work by generating both adaptive humoral and cellular immune responses in humans, including elevation of anti-spike neutralizing antibody titers, antigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell responses, and increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines such as interferon gamma (IFNγ). The general activation of the T-cell-mediated immune response and proinflammatory cytokines such as IFNγ may underlie the role of the COVID vaccines in reactivation of herpetic stromal keratitis and the clinical findings in our reported cases.…”

Anti-Inflammatory and Antimicrobial Actions of Vitamin D in Combating TB/HIV by Anna K. Coussens, Adrian R. Martineau, Robert J. Wilkinson

“…Moreover, maintaining vitamin D sufficiency prior to MTB infection enhances the innate antimicrobial response to T cell-mediated interferon-γ. Conversely, vitamin D can act to inhibit expression and secretion of a broad range of inflammatory mediators and matrix degrading enzymes driving immunopathology during active TB and antiretroviral- (ARV-) mediated immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS). …”
