Despite the small sample size, our estimates provide evidence of effectiveness of a two-dose regimen against HEV genotype 1 during a protracted outbreak, supporting its use in similar contexts.
Hepatitis E virus (HEV), a leading cause of acute viral hepatitis globally, disproportionately impacts low-income countries through genotypes 1 and 2. These HEV genotypes, primarily transmitted via contaminated water and food, are associated with high ...
Multi-age cohort campaigns had a marked effect on vaccine-type carriage and fractional-dose campaigns met non-inferiority criteria. Such campaigns should be considered in low-coverage settings, including humanitarian emergencies, to accelerate populati...
Borna disease, which is a severe encephalitis that primarily affects horses and sheep, has been recognised for over two centuries. Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) has been identified as a cause of a predominantly fatal encephalitis in humans. Little sci...

We read the Correspondence by Flávia Jacqueline Almeida and colleagues1 with interest. Dengue has affected millions of people annually, with many asymptomatic cases, where the likelihood of viraemic (RNAaemic) blood donors cannot be disregarded.

Historically, sickle cell anaemia has been widely neglected within its global epicentre of sub-Saharan Africa. More than 300 000 children are born with sickle cell anaemia within the region every year.1 Until recently, most of these children would not ...
