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. …”
