Les chercheurs et conseillers soutenus par le GTIC, ainsi que les responsables de la santé des gouvernements fédéral, provinciaux et territoriaux, se sont réunis à Vancouver pour la Réunion scientifique du GTIC au début du mois de mars 2023. L’objectif était de partager les résultats de la recherche et les leçons tirées de trois années de pandémie de COVID-19.

Près de 70 chercheurs et stagiaires ont présenté des résultats de recherche originaux sous forme d’affiches électroniques accompagnés de vidéos explicatives. Nous avons téléchargé un grand nombre de ces affiches et des vidéos qui les accompagnent ci-dessous et nous en ajouterons d’autres au fur et à mesure que les équipes de recherche nous donneront l’autorisation de les partager publiquement. Nous avons téléchargé un grand nombre de ces affiches et des vidéos qui les accompagnent (en anglais seulement). Les présentations d’affiches offrent un aperçu intéressant des connaissances acquises grâce au financement du GTIC.

What is serosurveillance and why is it important?

Serosurveillance is a common way of seeing how many people have been previously infected with a certain infectious agent, in this case SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19. Blood samples from hundreds of thousands of Canadians are currently being tested to check levels of antibodies, which suggest a past infection. Serosurveillance can also help determine priority groups for vaccination and will be used to monitor the effectiveness of vaccines.

What does “vaccine surveillance” mean?

Vaccine surveillance includes studies of vaccine effectiveness (how good vaccines are at preventing severe disease, new infections, and transmission) and safety (identifying and quantifying the vaccine adverse effects). Although vaccines go through numerous trials before being approved for use, it is crucial to monitor their effectiveness and safety within a broader population and with various population groups (children, pregnant women, elderly, etc.).
