Novel Adenovirus-based Vaccine for Uganda SARS COV-2 viruses
REFNo: HS1153ES
To develop a Novel SARS-Cov-2 Adeno-Vectored Vaccine against COVID-19. Briefly, we propose two adenovirus vector constructs using both S1 and S2 SARS-CoV-2 glycoproteins previously generated for the subunit vaccine design at CoVAB. Alternatively, these genes can also be amplified directly from the genome at the UVRI laboratories. Although most of the world is focused on SARS-CoV-2 Spike as an antigen, there are additional viral capsid proteins that should also be considered including the Envelope and N proteins.

DETERMINATION OF CROSS-SPECIES TRANSMISSION OF COVID-19 AT ANIMAL-HUMAN INTERFACE USING A ONE HEALTH APPROACH FOR IMPROVED DISEASE SURVEILLANCE AND CONTROL
REFNo: HS905ES
General Objectives
To assess existence of SARS-CoV-2 in domestic and wild animals (in Amuru/ Greater Rakai and UWEC) and corona virus antibody in humans (Amuru/ Greater Rakai) with no history of infection, using a one health approach.
Specific Objectives
• Assess prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in wild, livestock and companion animals, which may act as reservoirs of the causative agent in areas with confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Uganda
• Assess prevalence of the virus-specific antibodies in humans with no known history of contact with confirmed COVID-19 cases
• To determine the genetic relatedness between the human virus isolates with those obtained from the animals in order to confirm cross-host species transmission in Amuru and Greater Rakai districts.
