Female monkeys were vaccinated with spike protein from the ancestral virus (Wuhan) or an early variant (Gamma). Their infants had high levels of maternal IgG at birth, which more specifically inhibited the virus against which their mother had been immunized.

Adults with Down syndrome demonstrate striatum-first amyloid accumulation with [11C]Pittsburgh Compound-B (PiB) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, which has not been replicated with [18F]florbetapir (FBP). Early striatal accumulation has not been temporally quantified with respect to global cortical measures.
