The resulting immune background developed by its poorly vaccinated population has however not been described. METHODS In this study, serological analysis and specific T cell response descriptions were used to describe the history of exposures of the capital's blood donors to SARS-CoV-2 and its VOCs. Samples were collected early 2022, and pools of multiple immunogenic peptides of SARS-CoV-2 were used in an IFN-γ secretion ELISPOT assay to characterize the specific T-cell immunity developed against these potential epitopes. RESULTS Multiple epidemic waves have led to 92.1% of donors having detectable antibodies, and 94.8% having developed T-cells against SARS-CoV-2. Heterogeneous reactivities to different strain-derived peptides suggested multiple immunological backgrounds in the population including 16.1% of individuals exposed at least once to a unique strain, 27.1% to two strains, 28.5% to three strains, and 23.1% to four distinct strains. CONCLUSIONS Cross-reactivity increased with multiple exposures but did not decrease the risk of re-infection. These results describe the extremely complex immunological background developed following multiple natural immunizations.","PeriodicalId":502725,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infection and Public Health","volume":"23 1","pages":"175-181"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139299312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A rebound in IMD cases was feared upon easing these measures. METHODS We conducted a retrospective descriptive study using the French National Reference Center Database for meningococci between 2015 and 2022. We scored serogroups, sex, age groups, and clonal complexes of the corresponding isolates. FINDINGS Our data clearly show a decline in the number of IMD cases for all serogroups and age groups until 2021. This decline was mainly due to a decrease in IMD cases provoked by the hyperinvasive ST-11 clonal complex. However, since the fall of 2021, there has been an increase in IMD cases, which accelerated in the second half of 2022. This rebound concerned all age groups, in particular 16-24 years. The increase in cases due to serogroups B, W, and Y were mainly due to the expansion of isolates of the ST-7460, the clonal complex ST-9316 and the clonal complex ST-23, respectively. INTERPRETATION IMD epidemiology changes constantly and profound epidemiological changes have been recently observed. The surveillance of IMD needs to be enhanced using molecular tools. Additionally, vaccination strategies need to be updated to acknowledge recent epidemiological changes of these vaccine-preventable serogroups.","PeriodicalId":502725,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infection and Public Health","volume":"49 1","pages":"1954-1960"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139330092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
