Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to measure neutralizing SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in maternal serum, cord blood, and breast milk after vaccination and infection to see how they relate to spike protein binding antibodies.
- It involved 100 women who gave birth, assessing their antibody levels to determine the impact of previous infection and vaccination on maternal and infant immunity.
- Results showed that maternal neutralizing antibody levels increased after both vaccination and infection, but decreased quickly; these antibodies were also found in higher concentrations in cord blood than in maternal blood, and spike protein binding antibodies closely related to neutralizing antibody levels.
