TY - JOUR T1 - Children’s vaccines do not induce cross reactivity against SARS-CoV JF - Journal of Clinical Pathology JO - J Clin Pathol SP - 208 LP - 211 DO - 10.1136/jcp.2006.038893 VL - 60 IS - 2 AU - Yang Yu AU - Huali Jin AU - Ze Chen AU - Qingling L Yu AU - Yijie J Ma AU - Xiaolin L Sun AU - Bin Wang Y1 - 2007/02/01 UR - http://jcp.bmj.com/content/60/2/208.abstract N2 - In contrast with adults, children infected by severe acute respiratory syndrome-corona virus (SARS-CoV) develop milder clinical symptoms. Because of this, it is speculated that children vaccinated with various childhood vaccines might develop cross immunity against SARS-CoV. Antisera and T cells from mice immunised with various vaccines were used to determine whether they developed cross reactivity against SARS-CoV. The results showed no marked cross reactivity against SARS-CoV, which implies that the reduced symptoms among children infected by SARS-CoV may be caused by other factors. ER -
