Article Synopsis
  • The study explores how mRNA vaccines for COVID-19 trigger immune responses, revealing that the first dose leads to modest immune reactions while the second dose causes stronger interferon and inflammatory responses.
  • Blood samples taken at high frequency showed that both doses generated different patterns of interferon responses, indicating variations in immune reaction quality and quantity.
  • The findings suggest distinct immune response patterns are associated with COVID-19 severity, emphasizing the importance of closely monitoring immune responses after vaccination.

In the current COVID-19 global pandemic, there is a lack of reliable clinical tools to assist clinicians to perform accurate triage. Host response biomarkers have recently shown promise in risk stratification of disease progression; however, the role of these biomarkers in predicting disease progression in patients with COVID-19 is unknown.
