Enhanced Immune Response and Vaccination Strategies
The chapter explores the impact of SARS-CoV-2 exposure on T cell and IgG responses in individuals with varied vaccination and infection histories, highlighting the consistent high T cell responses and increasing antibody responses with multiple exposures.
