“…The long-term immune response elicited following mRNA vaccination is similar to that of SARS-CoV-2 infection, with studies reporting strong circulating memory B cell responses after two consecutive doses [ 7 ]. For convalescent COVID-19 subjects, strong Spike-specific and neutralizing antibody responses appear rapidly following the initial mRNA vaccine dose, with several studies suggesting that additional booster doses may have limited immunological benefit in this subject population [ [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] ]. This expediated protective immunity likely stems from the pre-existent SARS-CoV-2-specific B cell memory responses present in these individuals that may be driven by germinal centre formation, which produces high affinity, long-lasting memory B cells able to secrete virus-neutralizing antibodies [ 4 , 16 ].…”
