    Abstract Background: Patients with penicillin allergy labels often receive alternative antibiotics for perioperative prophylaxis, as opposed to first-line cephalosporins (cefazolin/cefuroxime). Provider misconceptions about the risk of cross-reactivity likely drive this prescribing behavior, which is problematic because of its association with increased risk of surgical-site infections.
    Objective: To develop, implement, and assess the safety of a streamlined approach to perioperative antibiotic selection for surgical patients with a penicillin allergy label, to reduce the use of second-line antibiotics.
    Methods: A multidisciplinary task force developed an institutional algorithm for antibiotic selection in penicillin-allergic surgical patients. The percentage of patients receiving a first-line cephalosporin was compared before and after algorithm utilization. The safety of this approach was assessed via chart review of all patients who received epinephrine or diphenhydramine in the operating room, or diphenhydramine within 24 hours postoperatively, assessing for any adverse reactions to cephalosporin administration.
    Results: Between September 2016 and May 2019, 9.3% of surgical patients had documented penicillin allergy (n = 2296). At baseline, 22% of these patients received a cephalosporin, with an increase to more than 80% after algorithm implementation (P < .0001). Among 551 patients with penicillin allergy label who received a cephalosporin after algorithm implementation, no immediate allergic reactions requiring epinephrine were identified; 1 patient had a delayed rash that did not require cephalosporin discontinuation. Three patients received diphenhydramine for "itching" without rash in the setting of concomitant narcotic administration.
    Conclusions: Using a streamlined algorithm, we were able to significantly reduce the use of second-line antibiotics in penicillin-allergic surgical patients without severe adverse reactions.

    Abstract Background: Human adenovirus (HAdV) infections can lead to high mortality in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients, with rare reports of donor-derived infection.
    Methods: Two renal transplant recipients with HAdV-11 infection who received kidneys from the same donor are described. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was performed.
    Results: WGS showed 100% nucleotide sequence identity for the 2 HAdV-11 isolates. The patients presented with distinct clinical syndromes, and both were treated with brincidofovir.
    Conclusions: Donor-derived HAdV infection is presumed to be low; however, disseminated HAdV in SOT recipients can be severe, and clinicians should be aware of the clinical course and treatment options.

    Abstract The BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) and mRNA-1273 (Moderna) vaccines generate potent neutralizing antibodies against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, the global emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants with mutations in the spike protein, the principal antigenic target of these vaccines, has raised concerns over the neutralizing activity of vaccine-induced antibody responses. The Omicron variant, which emerged in November 2021, consists of over 30 mutations within the spike protein. Here, we used an authentic live virus neutralization assay to examine the neutralizing activity of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant against mRNA vaccine-induced antibody responses. Following the 2nd dose, we observed a 30-fold reduction in neutralizing activity against the omicron variant. Through six months after the 2nd dose, none of the sera from naïve vaccinated subjects showed neutralizing activity against the Omicron variant. In contrast, recovered vaccinated individuals showed a 22-fold reduction with more than half of the subjects retaining neutralizing antibody responses. Following a booster shot (3rd dose), we observed a 14-fold reduction in neutralizing activity against the omicron variant and over 90% of boosted subjects showed neutralizing activity against the omicron variant. These findings show that a 3rd dose is required to provide robust neutralizing antibody responses against the Omicron variant.
