Researchers at Fiocruz Pernambuco have developed a new vaccine against yellow fever. Based on virus RNA, it was tested in mice and the results achieved 100% protection, even the index reached by the conventional vaccine currently offered by the Unified Health System (SUS).
Among the advantages of this new immunization is the possibility of being offered to the attenuated virus vaccine groups (children, pregnant women, elderly people, immunosuppressed persons and people with allergies to egg proteins), as well as large-scale production capacity.
The increased coverage of the DNA vaccine may be of more benefit to the population at the time of the disease outbreak, as is now the case in Brazil, where 1,170 suspected cases have been reported in six states, with deaths reported in three of them. Another advantage is that the new vaccine is safer.
According to Rafael Dhalia and Ernesto Marques (developers of the vaccine), the safety lies in the fact that the immunization is done without the presence of the live virus, even if weakened, which makes null the chance of adverse reactions and cause death by the fact of DNA is considered an inert molecule in our body. Before reaching the market, the vaccine created at Fiocruz Pernambuco needs to be tested on humans to ensure its safety and effectiveness.
