COVID-19
Reducing COVID-19 Related Hospital Admission in Elderly by BCG Vaccination
Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine not only protects against tuberculosis, but has also been shown to induce protection against various infections with a viral aetiology, leading to significant reductions in morbidity and…

Immune System Responses and Trained Immunity After AS01 Administration, Healthy Adult
Improving Vaccine Protection for Adults
As people grow older, their immune system - the body's natural defence against diseases - becomes weaker, making them more vulnerable to infections and less responsive to vaccines.

- Testing
- AS01 adjuvant (0.5 mL intramuscular), YF17D (Stamaril, Sanofi-Pasteur)
- Where

Cholesterol Variability, Trained Immunity
LDL-c Level Variability and Trained Immunity
Statin treatment significantly reduces the incidence of cardiovascular events. However, cholesterol variability is associated with the risk of adverse events such as mortality, myocardial infarction, and stroke.

COVID-19
Reducing Health Care Workers Absenteeism in Covid-19 Pandemic Through BCG Vaccine
Rationale: Covid-19 spreads rapidly throughout the world. A large epidemic in the Netherlands would seriously challenge the available hospital capacity, and this would be augmented by absenteeism of healthcare workers (HCW).
