Omicron: Sinopharm and Sinovac shots fend off severe illness, WHO expert says

“The vaccines have different rankings in terms of prevention of infections, but what we know well so far is that all of them prevent death … Our prediction is their ability to prevent severe [illness], hospitalisation and death will be maintained,” he said.

“What we have seen from right now is what is going to protect against severe [illness], hospitalisation and death is your T-cell response. 


The neutralisation antibodies go down and it’s the T-cells. And what we know from other vaccines is they do prevent it, whether it’s the Sinovac or Sinopharm [vaccine].”

T-cells are not specific … T-cells use a brute force,” Mahamud said.

“The T-cells maintain the ability to recognise [variants] and protect from getting severe disease.”

Your thread title is misleading. WHO is referring to most vaccines including these 2.

Inactivated vaccines generate more T-cells than Pfizer or Moderna vaccines....?

Not only that.

===
Because these vaccines are simply weakened versions of natural pathogens, the immune system responds as it would to any other cellular invader, mobilising a range of defences against it, including killer T cells (which identify and destroy infected cells), helper T cells (which support antibody production) and antibody-producing B cells (which target pathogens lurking elsewhere in the body, e.g. the blood). This immune response continues until the virus is cleared from the body, meaning there is plenty of time for memory cells against the virus to develop. Because of this, live attenuated vaccines can trigger an immune response which is almost as good as being exposed to the wild virus, but without falling ill.

Inactivated virus vaccines also contain the disease-causing virus, or parts of it, but their genetic material has been destroyed. For this reason, they are considered safer and more stable than live attenuated vaccines, and they can be given to people with compromised immune systems. Even though their genetic material has been destroyed, inactivated viruses usually contain many proteins which the immune system can react to. But because they cannot infect cells, inactivated vaccines only stimulate antibody-mediated responses, and this response may be weaker and less long-lived. To overcome this problem, inactivated vaccines are often given alongside adjuvants (agents that stimulate the immune system) and booster doses may be required.

Traditional way of producing vaccines is still the safest and less worries.

You are right.  I agrees.  Your killer cells will be yr 1st line of defense which will be yr T-cells determining yr strong immune system.

Just heard news our super world class experts now says Sinos need 3+1 to be effective. Seems to imply the daily nos. are not P&M vaxxed but dare not reveal truth

Think about it. China locked down drastically for single digit cases, when they have already vaccinated majority of population using inferior sinovac. Why are they so afraid of the virus when vaccination rate is so high?

novavax is gene based vaccine. experimental. jab with risk. since sinkies so interested in novavax, they can be the first to be lab rats

I don't think Sinkees are prepared to be lab rats......
