Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to examine how long antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 last and how factors like age, gender, and viral load affect the immune response in patients.
- Serum samples were collected from 231 COVID-19 patients in Brazil over several months, analyzing the levels of different antibody types (IgA, IgM, IgG, IgE) and noting trends in their production.
- Results indicated that while IgA and IgM levels peaked and then declined, IgG levels remained stable; older patients produced more IgA, and a correlation between viral load and antibody production was mainly seen in the older demographic.
