Who is vulnerable to a breakthrough infection after Covid mRNA vaccination? Especially those with rapid decline of antibodies or low spike-specific IgA titers early after a booster
www.science.org/doi/full/10....
Longitudinal antibody titers measured after COVID-19 mRNA vaccination can identify individuals at risk for subsequent infection
Individuals at high risk for subsequent SARS-CoV-2 infections can be identified by analyzing antibody titers over time.

🌌 BREAKING: Mars may have left us a message. #NASA’s Perseverance rover has discovered potential #biosignatures — clues that life may not be unique to Earth.
🔭🧪

“This is the closest we’ve come to recognizing that life on Earth is not unique.”

Why do some people get seriously ill while others don't? Our new study in @pnas.org investigated how a population of memory T cells influence #COVID severity

HLA-B*15:01 has been linked to protection from severe COVID, but this is not fool-proof. B*15+ individuals can still succumb to severe infections. Check out a recent study from Prof Kedzierska's lab 👇🏼 showing a lack of public TCR usage in B*15+ patients with severe COVID.
