The question often arises on the Corona vaccination date: in which arm? Researchers can now prove that it makes a difference or the same arm is used for refreshment or another.
The Corona vaccinations have a better effect when the required vaccine cans are administered in the same arm. This is the result of a group around Tri Phan from the University of New South Wales in Sydney and the Australian Research Institute Garvan Institute of Medical Research. B memory cells can be better activated.
“This is a fundamental discovery of how the immune system organizes itself to better respond to external threats – nature has devised this ingenious system and we are starting to understand it,” emphasizes Phan.
Better formation of antibodies on the same point
In the case of vaccinations, a harmless version of a pathogen or only part of it is brought into the body. The research team discovered that so-called B commemoration cells, which are decisive to detect pathogens, remain in the lymph nodes that are closest to the puncture place. In the case of a refreshing vaccination in the same place, the B -memory cells can be better activated to form suitable antibodies.
Vucked does not have to worry
MEE LING MUNIER of the same university, however, clearly provides everything for everyone who has already been vaccinated in terms of the more long-term effect: “If you have received your Corona vaccinations in different poor, it is no worries that the differences over time take over.” In a pandemic, however, it could play a crucial role in the immunity of the population how quickly protection develops.
In his research, the team also sees useful knowledge for the future development of vaccines, as they need fewer refreshments. Only Corona vaccines were tested here, others should follow, author Phan said. However, the team assumes that the findings for other vaccinations are also based.
Vaccination Week wants to draw attention to HPV
The European vaccination week is currently active: health authorities draw attention to how important vaccinations are to contain diseases and to protect human life. A focus this time is on protection against human papillomaviruses (HPV), which can cause cervical cancer or tumors in the mouth and throat space. The permanent vaccination commission recommends HPV vaccinations from the age of nine.
