Comparing immune responses from COVID-19 infection and vaccination

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to compare the immune responses generated by natural SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 vaccination. It will recruit subjects prioritized for vaccination, including healthcare workers and patients previously infected with the virus. The study will collect demographic and clinical data, along with repeated blood samples, to evaluate the kinetics, duration, and breadth of antibody responses, as well as B and T cellular responses. Additionally, it will assess short and long-term complications associated with both natural infection and vaccination.
