SARS-CoV-2 as a Model Pathogen for Rapid Immunosurveillance of Severe Acute Respiratory Illnesses (SARI) and Influenza-Like Illnesses (ILI) in Uganda: A Pilot Platform
REFNo: HS7938ES
Primary Objective
To pilot and establish an integrated immunological surveillance platform in Uganda and the East African region for the real-time functional characterization of circulating variants of SARS-CoV-2 as a model pathogen, creating a scalable framework for future expansion to other SARI and ILI threats.
Specific Objectives
1.
To develop and implement standardized operating procedures (SOPs) for the screening, recruitment, sample collection, transportation, and biobanking of clinical specimens from at least 200 participants presenting with SARI and ILI in Uganda over a 12-month period.
2.
To assess the phenotypic immune escape potential of circulating and newly emergent SARS-CoV-2 variants by quantifying their sensitivity to neutralization by antibodies derived from vaccinated and naturally infected individuals, thereby establishing a workflow applicable to future Influenza and RSV surveillance.
3.
To build sustainable local capacity by training at least 2 NHLDS-CPHL staff in all aspects of the high-throughput pipeline and successfully isolating, expressing, and characterizing variant-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs).

Performance Evaluation of the Pluslife MiniDock MTB Test for Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in high TB/HIV settings in Uganda
REFNo: HS7953ES
GENERAL OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the Pluslife MiniDock MTB Test for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a high TB-HIV setting in Uganda.
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES
1. To determine the diagnostic accuracy of Pluslife MiniDock MTB Test compared to GeneXpert MTB/RIF Ultra and mycobacterial culture as reference standards for detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a high TB/HIV setting in Uganda.
2. To compare diagnostic performance of Pluslife MiniDock MTB Test between tongue swab and sputum specimens for MTB detection in hign TB/HIV setting in Uganda.
3. To evaluate operational characteristics of Pluslife MiniDock MTB Test including result turnaround time, invalid/error rate, and ease of use among health facility operators and laboratory personnel.
4. To assess the feasibility and acceptability of Pluslife MiniDock MTB implementation at peripheral health facility level within Uganda's TB diagnostic pathway.
