We are delighted to be able to share the results of the Cov-Boost trial which were published in The Lancet overnight. Saul Faust, trial lead, said: “Southampton’s #CovBoost trial has informed the UK which boosters are safe to use this winter.” Read more: uhs.nhs.uk/whats-new/pres…

Results from the UK-wide trial Cov-Boost shows that six COVID-19 vaccines are safe and boost immunity for people who have had two doses of AstraZeneca or Pfizer-BioNTech. Read more: bit.ly/3lvzmQd

The UKHSA played a key role in the laboratory testing of samples from the Cov-Boost trial, which assessed possible vaccines for the UK’s booster rollout. We will shortly begin testing samples from the trial against the new #OmicronVariant to assess their effectiveness.

Are you aged 18 - 30 and have had 2 doses of a #COVID19 vaccine? You may be eligible for our new sub-study, trialling lower doses of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines as 3rd dose boosters for young adults! Click here to find out more 👇 covboost.org.uk/participate-su…

A new sub-study of Cov-Boost, trialling lower #covid19 vaccine booster doses has launched. The study will take place at 15 hospitals across England, Wales and Scotland, and will include a total of over 900 participants.bit.ly/3rJncpc

If you’re 18-30 & haven’t had your #COVID19 booster yet, you may be eligible for Cov-Boost. The study looks at the effectiveness of different doses of Pfizer & Moderna. Receive up to £225 (depending on no. of visits) to cover travel & inconvenience. covboost.org.uk

#Covid19 #vaccination study alert! Open in Leeds Research & Innovation the Cov-Boost study is inviting 18-30 year olds looking at the use of different COVID-19 vaccines and doses for giving a third dose. Interested, contact [email protected] or call 07425 628243.

The Southampton-led Cov-Boost study provided world-first data on the safety of third vaccine doses, guiding the UK’s autumn 2021 booster rollout. New results from the nationwide study show the lasting impact of booster jabs in staying protected from #COVID19

Excited to finally share the Cov-Boost data on persistence of immunity following third dose boosters for #COVID19 It makes a real difference which booster you get depending on your primary vaccine course Tonnes of data here - let's take a look! 🧵 1/ journalofinfection.com/article/S0163-…

Summary: - Drops in S IgG by up to ~half by day 84 - Small drop for T cells - S IgG drop more for mRNA boosters - After 2x BNT, day 84 S IgG as good or better following Adenovirus boosters vs mRNA - Reduced but still good neutralisation vs omicron at day 28 for mRNA boosters 9/

The results of the Cov-Boost fourth dose booster substudy are now online in The Lancet Infectious Diseases We demonstrated fourth doses of covid vaccines were safe and well tolerated and boost antibody levels above their peak following a third dose thelancet.com/journals/lanin…

Great to see the outstanding work of the @southamptonCRF receiving such prominent national media coverage today. The Southampton-led @Covboost study has important findings for fourth dose #covid jabs in the UK and beyond.

Fourth doses of #covid vaccines have been offered to the most vulnerable in the UK and a wider group might get them later this year. Latest findings from the @southamptonCRF @Covboost study show these jabs offer excellent boosting immunity protection. bit.ly/3vZM3IM

Ahead of Friday's #ClinicalTrialsDay, we want to celebrate those who volunteer and get involved in research - the TrialBlazers. Over the next 2 weeks we'll be sharing their stories and examples of how you can #BePartOfResearch and join the TrialBlazers 🦸‍♂️ bepartofresearch.nihr.ac.uk/trialblazers/?…

Thank you for the exceptional hard work, flexibility and dedication to studies such as Cov-Boost 👏#BiomedicalScienceDay2022
