We demonstrated that previous vaccination with a vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)–based
Lassa virus vaccine does not alter protective efficacy of subsequent vaccination with a VSV-
based Ebola virus vaccine. These findings demonstrate the utility of VSV-based vaccines
against divergent viral pathogens, even when preexisting immunity to the vaccine vector is
present.
Abstract
We demonstrated that previous vaccination with a vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)–based Lassa virus vaccine does not alter protective efficacy of subsequent vaccination with a VSV-based Ebola virus vaccine. These findings demonstrate the utility of VSV-based vaccines against divergent viral pathogens, even when preexisting immunity to the vaccine vector is present.
