Data on safety and immunity elicited by a third booster dose of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine in children and adolescents are scarce. Here we conducted a study based on a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled phase 2 clinical trial (NCT04551547) to assess the safety and immunogenicity of a third dose of CoronaVac. In this study, 384 participants in the vaccine group were assigned to two cohorts. One received the third dose at a 10-months interval (cohort 1) and the other one at a 12-months interval (cohort 2). The primary endpoint is safety and immunogenicity following a third dose of CoronaVac. The secondary endpoint is antibody persistence following the primary two-dose schedule. Severities of local and systemic adverse reactions reported within 28 days after dose 3 were mild and moderate in both cohorts. A third dose of CoronaVac increased GMTs to 681.0 (95%CI: 545.2-850.7) in cohort 1 and 745.2 (95%CI: 577.0-962.3) in cohort 2. Seropositivity rates against the prototype were 100% on day 28 after dose 3. Seropositivity rates against the Omicron variant were 90.6% (cohort 1) and 91.5% (cohort 2). A homologous booster dose of CoronaVac is safe and induces a significant neutralising antibody levels increase in children and adolescents.

NIH genetic sequence database that provides annotated collection of all publicly available DNA sequences for almost 280 000 formally described species (Jan 2014) .These sequences are obtained primarily through submissions from individual laboratories and batch submissions from large-scale sequencing projects, including whole-genome shotgun (WGS) and environmental sampling projects. Most submissions are made using web-based BankIt or standalone Sequin programs, and GenBank staff assigns accession numbers upon data receipt. It is part of International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration and daily data exchange with European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) and DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) ensures worldwide coverage. GenBank is accessible through NCBI Entrez retrieval system, which integrates data from major DNA and protein sequence databases along with taxonomy, genome, mapping, protein structure and domain information, and biomedical journal literature via PubMed. BLAST provides sequence similarity searches of GenBank and other sequence databases. Complete bimonthly releases and daily updates of GenBank database are available by FTP.
