In order to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, high levels of immunity must be achieved globally
.
However, it is unclear how long infection- or vaccine-induced immune memory will last
COVID-19 immune infection
With regard to natural infection, studies have shown that despite declining antibody levels, memory B and T cells are detectable within 8 months of recovery in most subjects, although 10-20% of them show weaker immune memory
.
Information on the longevity of vaccine-induced immune memory is even more sparse, as immune activity began less than a year ago
.
Real-world studies showed that protection against COVID-19 was significantly reduced in all age groups 6 months after a full mRNA vaccination cycle, although protection against severe illness and hospitalization remained high
The data raises the question of whether a dose increase is needed, with many countries now recommending a third dose six months after the second dose
.
This paper investigated the immune memory and booster effects after SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination
.
method:
method: method:We performed a longitudinal evaluation of SARS-CoV-2 immune memory up to 8 months after mRNA vaccination in uninfected and COVID-19 recovered individuals
.
We also assessed the immunological effects of booster injections in two cohorts of individuals
result:
result:We found that memory cells were still detectable 8 months after vaccination, while antibody levels decreased significantly, especially in uninfected subjects
.
.
We also found that booster injections were effective in reactivating immune memory for the spike protein in uninfected subjects, but not in those with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection
.
.
Finally, we observed similar decay kinetics of humoral and cellular immunity to SARS-CoV-2 up to 1 year after natural infection in a cohort of unvaccinated individuals
.
Figure 1: Anti-Spike Antibodies Decrease Faster After Vaccination in Naïve Individuals than in Subjects Recovering from COVID-19
Figure 3: Naïve individuals and subjects recovering from COVID-19 show similar proportions of Spike-specific B cells 8 months after vaccination
Figure 4: In naïve individuals and recovered COVID-19 patients, the frequency of specific CD4+ T cells was comparable at 1 month after vaccination and remained stable at 8 months after vaccination
Figure 6: Booster vaccination restores humoral and cellular immunity more effectively in naïve individuals than in recovered COVID-19 patients
Figure 7: Antibodies (but not B and CD4+ T cells) declined 1 year after natural infection
in conclusion:
Conclusion: Conclusion:The short-term persistence of humoral immunity and reduced neutralization capacity against currently circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants may explain reinfection and breakthrough infection
.
Long-lived memory B and CD4+ T cells may protect against severe disease development
Booster doses restore optimal immunity against the spike protein in uninfected subjects, while the need for booster doses in vaccinated COVID-19 recovered subjects has not been established
