The immune biology of natural and immune escape
pandemics/epidemics - UPDATED!
In this second running of this unique deep dive into the immune biology of epidemics and pandemics, Dr Vanden Bossche will bring new insights and updated material in order to provide comprehensive insights into the intricate interplay between pathogens and the host immune system. If you would like a comprehensive understanding how
this natural interaction influences the evolutionary dynamics of viral immune evasion and the adaptive responses of the host immune system at a population level, then you can’t afford to miss this course. Even if you were one of the lucky ones to join Dr Vanden Bossche’s first course in 2023, attending again will deepen your knowledge base, give you new insights in this very complex area and allow you to interact once more with Dr Vanden Bossche and have your questions answered.
This course also covers the influence of pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical interventions on the complex relationship between pathogens and the host immune system. It explains how large-scale human interventions in this delicate balance may affect the evolutionary dynamics of pandemics or multi-country epidemics. It also shows how populations develop herd immunity to fight global outbreaks, which can control the pathogen and drive it into endemicity to make them a regular part of the environment. The emphasis will be mainly placed on highly contagious pathogens that suddenly cause(d) acute epidemics or pandemics (such as, for example, coronaviruses, influenza viruses, enteroviruses, poxviruses). By gaining deeper insights into how immune responses can either control the pathogen or lead to pathogen immune escape, students will learn how a better understanding of this complex ecosystem
can inform sound pandemic/epidemic management and preparedness. Additionally, you’ll understand the biological rationale underlying the differences between global pandemics like COVID-19, epidemics that spread across countries, and smaller outbreaks, and how we can best respond to them.

Potential Clinical Implications of Geert's Viral Shift Predictions
From Vejon Health (https://www.youtube.com/@VejonHealth):
In March 2021, Geert Vanden Bossche (Virologist and Vaccine Developer) warned of the dangers of mass vaccination during a pandemic to drive viral evolution.
Recent further unusual patterns in viral evolution have indicated to him that the virus is now making more changes which will allow it to evade all vaccines.
Three clinicians will reflect on his assumptions and analyse disease presentation in the general public.
- Dr Shankara Chetty (South Africa)
- Dr Robert Rennebohm (USA)
- Dr Philip McMillan (UK)

10. Risks of mRNA Covid-19 Vaccines: Impact on Individual and Public Health
🔷 mRNA-based Covid-19 vaccines are considered problematic from both an individual and public health perspective due to their ability to shift the focus of the immune response to poorly immunogenic domains of spike protein. However, individuals who have received a single dose of an mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine or a maximum of two doses of a non-mRNA vaccine, and subsequently experience a symptomatic breakthrough infection, are believed to retain the ability to train the broadly protective capacity of their cell-based innate immune system.

9. Breaking the Blockade: SARS-CoV-2 Adapting to Vaccine Immunity
🔷 With more people getting vaccinated against COVID-19, it is important to know that the virus more readily adapts, selecting variants capable of breaking through suboptimal vaccine-mediated immune pressure.

8. Breakthrough Infections Via Diminished Neutralizing Capacity of Vaccine-Induced Antibodies
🔷 Mass vaccination generated an immune escape landscape where vaccine breakthrough infections enabled Omicron to resist the neutralizing capacity of antibodies, leading to an overall weakened immune response, thereby further enhancing viral immune escape.

7. Trained-Cell-Based Innate Immunity: How It Protects the Unvaccinated from Covid19 Escape Variants

6. Omicron Causes Enhanced Large-Scale Immune Escape Dynamics
🔷 The advent of Omicron caused viral immune escape dynamics to reach a point of no return, transforming the immune escape pandemic into an 'inescapable' self-catalyzing chain of enhanced immune escape, instead of driving it into endemicity.
