SARS‐CoV‐2 infection triggers more potent antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) responses than mRNA‐, vector‐, and inactivated virus‐based COVID‐19 vaccines
Published 2024“…Here, we investigated ADCC activity in convalescent sera from infected patients with wild‐type (WT) severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus‐2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) or omicron variant compared with three coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) vaccine platforms and postvaccination breakthrough infection (BTI). …”

Airflow dynamics in an emergency department: A CFD simulation study to analyse COVID-19 dispersion
Published 2021“…The analysis revealed that three critical areas of the emergency department, namely overnight patient beds, operating rooms, and resuscitation rooms, had significantly higher air velocity, dispersion, and mixing levels than the rest of the department's spaces. According to the two scenarios examined, the possibility of air transmission from these locations to neighboring areas becomes apparent, increasing the likelihood of transmitting the virus from these locations and infecting people in the adjacent areas, including patients and health care providers. …”
