In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

One of the current health challenges in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic that started in Wuhan in 2019, and still responsible for successive waves, is to better understand and diagnose the infection. The new variants - delta, then omicron, which appeared in November 2021 and then their sub-variants BA.2, then BA.4 and 5, and more recently BQ.1 and the sub-variant XBB.1.5 are increasingly transmissible and responsible for some degree of immune escape. Hence the importance of a better understanding of infection- or vaccine-induced immunity in order to optimize existing prophylactic or therapeutic strategies, or even to develop new, more effective ones. Mucosal immunity could play a particularly important role in interrupting the infection cycle at the entry point of the virus. The key role of innate immunity has been demonstrated in particular, via interferons and the composition of th
