Article Synopsis
- * Methods: Blood samples were collected from individuals who had recovered from SARS-CoV-2 at 3 and 13 months post-infection, as well as from vaccinated individuals at 5 months post-vaccination, with a focus on comparing individuals based on BMI levels.
- * Results: Higher BMI is linked to reduced antibody responses following infection but not significantly after vaccination, highlighting the need for vaccination in individuals with a higher BMI for better immune protection.
