Article Synopsis
- Blood transcriptional profiling is used to evaluate immune responses to infections, but traditional blood collection methods hinder accurate analysis during dynamic infections like COVID-19.
- A new at-home self-collection method allows participants to collect blood and nasal swabs every other day, enabling high-frequency measurement of immune response during acute SARS-CoV-2 infections.
- The study found significant differences in immune responses between healthy and COVID-19+ individuals, revealing distinct patterns based on vaccination status, and demonstrating the effectiveness of at-home sampling in tracking immune kinetics.
