Article Synopsis
- Pre-vaccination SARS-CoV-2 infection enhances COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness, and breakthrough infections after vaccination can further improve immunity, leading to what is called 'hybrid immunity'.
- A study analyzed the complementarity determining regions (CDR) of anti-RBD antibodies from individuals with hybrid immunity and those vaccinated but not previously infected.
- Results indicate that individuals with hybrid immunity exhibit a unique CDR profile that is different from vaccinated individuals without prior infection, suggesting that both infection and vaccination contribute to more robust immune responses.
