COVID-19 vaccination and acute infection result in cellular and humoral immune responses with various degrees of protection. While most studies have addressed the difference in humoral response between vaccination and acute infection, studies on the cellular response are scarce. We aimed to evaluate differences in immune response among vaccinated patients versus those who had recovered from COVID-19.

- Symptomatic patients who recovered from acute COVID-19 face significant respiratory challenges and require extensive follow-up care, impacting both their health and healthcare systems.
- A study of 275 patients showed that a high percentage had impaired lung function and chest abnormalities three months post-infection, indicating potential long-term effects of the virus.
- Anti-S serological levels emerged as a key indicator, correlating with lung diffusion capacity and previous severity of COVID-19, while other serological markers did not show significant links to health outcomes.
