Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention belongs to the technical field of intelligent system for vaccination, and also relates to the technical field of medical information processing and the technical field of communication, and is specifically to an intelligent vaccine nebulization system and a method of use thereof.

BACKGROUND TECHNOLOGY

A large number of studies of vaccines show that: for infectious diseases that infect body through respiratory mucosa, partial vaccination is more effective and safer than peripheral vaccination. Partial vaccination, such as inhaled aerosol COVID-19 vaccine, has fought the defense against virus at mucosal membrane, and could avoid blood-borne infections caused by bacteria contamination upon the opening of injection needles.

The inhaled aerosol COVID-19 vaccine is effective because it could activate mucosal immunity of body. Mucosal immunity is related to globulin A (IgA) and this immunoglobulin could be obtained from breast milk at birth and begins to produce automatically as grown up with its distribution in breast milk, saliva and mucosal secretions on gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract and genito-urinary tract, which is the first line of defense to prevent the invasion of pathogens.

The inhaled aerosol COVID-19 vaccine could activate the production of IgA: the inhaled vaccine transports the antigen to the nasopharyngeal associated lymphoid tissue (NALT) and presents the antigen to the cell (APC), and then presents it to T cells, which can then activate IgA+B cell development. After antigen-specific CD4+ cells and IgA+B cells migrate to the upper respiratory tract through the thoracic duct and blood circulation, IgA+B cells differentiate into IgA+plasma cells under the action of the cytokines secreted by CD4+ cells to produce IgA dimers. It then binds to the polymerized Ig receptors existing on the epithelial mucosal cells to become secreted IgA, which is finally released to the upper respiratory tract surface to play a protective role.

At the Pujiang Innovation Forum on Jun. 3, 2021, Chen Wei, a researcher of the Academy of Military Sciences, who is also an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, stated that an adenovirus vector inhaled aerosol COVID-19 vaccine developed by her team is applying for emergency use. This means that in the future, the COVID-19 vaccine could be vaccinated in a non-injection manner by only inhaling the atomized vaccine and holding breath for a few seconds.

Compared with the injection vaccine, the advantages of inhaled aerosol COVID-19 vaccine are obvious, which includes:

• • 1. The dose is small, which is about only one-fifth compared with that of the injection route, no vaccine bottle is required, this solves a problem called ‘locking’ in the manufacture of vaccine bottles, and transportation requirements of vaccine is correspondingly reduced.
  • 2. The production capacity is increased because vaccine dose is reduced to only one-fifth of traditional injection vaccine; in another word, the reduction in single dosage means a significant increase in production capacity.
  • 3. The immune effect is good, the injection vaccine could only produce two types of immunity: humoral immunity+cellular immunity, but the inhaled aerosol vaccine could produce three types of immunity: humoral immunity+cellular immunity+mucosal immunity and the protection effect is better.
  • 4. The immune response is fast. After the nebulization vaccine being inhaled, it could quickly take effect in nasal, throat, trachea, alveoli and mucous membranes.
  • 5. The population of immunization is much easier. Compared with injection, inhaled vaccine is less painful. It is much more suitable for people who are ‘fear of needles’ or ‘need phobia’, and more likely to be accepted by children.
