Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:A fundamental limitation of all of these approaches is that they are not designed to elicit mucosal immunity. As prior work with other respiratory pathogens like influenza has shown, sterilizing immunity to virus re-infection requires adaptive immune responses in the respiratory tract and the lung17,30,31. In the context of COVID19 existing data supports that initial infection in the nasal compartment promotes/facilitates subsequent seeding of the virus to the lung13. The ability of vaccines to thus promote immunity at the mucosal sites and specifically within the nasal compartment can prevent seeding of the initial reservoir and control human transmission. Intranasal vaccination is an attractive platform to elicit systemic and mucosal immunity. The fundamental challenge in intranasal vaccination is the ability to balance safety while ensuring immunogenicity leading to sterilizing immunity. Intranasal administration of live-attenuated vaccines in humans is hampered by concerns of safety32 and the use of the adenovirus vectored vaccines can be hampered by the presence of pre-existing immunity33. Subunit vaccines are attractive candidates that do not suffer from these drawbacks. However, the ability of subunit vaccines to elicit potent and sterilizing immune responses is critically dependent on the choice of appropriate adjuvants. We demonstrate that STINGa encapsulated in liposomes can function as potent adjuvants. A single intranasal immunization with protein S and the adjuva...
