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.

The concept of 'hybrid immunity' from combining infection and vaccination is introduced, along with insights into RSV human challenge trials and the importance of innate immunity in controlling initial viral infections.
