Relative infectiousness of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine breakthrough infections, reinfections, and primary infections.
( Springer , 2022 , Article)SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections in vaccinated individuals and in those who had a prior infection have been observed globally, but the transmission potential of these infections is unknown. The RT-qPCR cycle threshold ... -
A novel method to generate key-dependent s-boxes with identical algebraic properties
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)The s-box plays the vital role of creating confusion between the ciphertext and secret key in any cryptosystem, and is the only nonlinear component in many block ciphers. Dynamic s-boxes, as compared to static, improve ... -
Detection of DNA Bases via Field Effect Transistor of Graphene Nanoribbon with a Nanopore: Semi-empirical Modeling

BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness against the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant in Qatar.
( Nature Researc , 2021 , Article)With the global expansion of the highly transmissible SARS-CoV-2 Delta (B.1.617.2) variant, we conducted a matched test-negative case-control study to assess the real-world effectiveness of COVID-19 messenger RNA vaccines ... -
Association of Prior SARS-CoV-2 Infection With Risk of Breakthrough Infection Following mRNA Vaccination in Qatar.
( American Medical Association , 2021 , Article)The effect of prior SARS-CoV-2 infection on vaccine protection remains poorly understood. To assess protection from SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infection after mRNA vaccination among persons with vs without prior SARS-CoV-2 ... -
SARS-CoV-2 antibody-positivity protects against reinfection for at least seven months with 95% efficacy
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Background Reinfection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been documented, raising public health concerns. SARS-CoV-2 reinfections were assessed in a cohort of antibody-positive persons ... -
mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness against the B.1.1.7 and B.1.351 variants and severe COVID-19 disease in Qatar
(2021 , Article)The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic continues to be a global health concern. The mRNA-1273 (Moderna) vaccine was reported to have an efficacy of 94.1% at preventing symptomatic COVID-19 due to infection with ‘wild-type’ variants in a ... -
Epidemiological impact of prioritising SARS-CoV-2 vaccination by antibody status: Mathematical modelling analyses
( BMJ Publishing Group , 2021 , Article)Background Vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 have been developed, but their availability falls far short of global needs. This study aimed to investigate the impact of prioritising available doses on the basis of recipient ... -
Bayesian inference for Pr ( Y<X ) in the exponential distribution based on records
( Elsevier , 2014 , Article)We consider Bayesian estimation of the stress–strength reliability based on record values. The estimators are derived under the squared error loss function in the one parameter as well as two-parameter exponential ... -
