Could CanSino’s inhaled coronavirus vaccine booster be a quick, needle-free option?

CanSino’s inhaled Covid-19 vaccine booster induces a higher level of immune response for those vaccinated with two Sinovac shots than a third dose of the Sinovac vaccine, a team of Chinese researchers has found.
Study participants who received the CanSino booster showed “much stronger neutralising antibody responses” – at nearly seven to 11 times higher than that of a three-dose regimen of the Sinovac shot – according to the study of 420 people. The study has not been peer-reviewed.
The results indicated “a potential boost strategy” for people primed with inactivated Covid-19 vaccines, said the team, which included scientists from the Jiangsu provincial centre for disease control and prevention, the Chinese military’s top epidemiologist and virologist Chen Wei and CanSino Biologics employees. They posted the results on the platform Preprints with The Lancet last week.
