“…The general findings from these studies were that (1) fewer patients mounted SARS-CoV-2–specific IgG (30-75%) and T-cell responses (∼50-70%) compared to healthy donors (∼95-100%), (2) titers of SARS-CoV-2–specific IgG, efficacy of virus neutralization, and magnitude of T-cell responses were reduced in patients compared to healthy donors, and (3) poor vaccine-induced immunity in patients correlated with reduced numbers of CD4 + T cells or memory B cells, low serum IgG and IgA, and older age. 80 , 158 , 159 , 160 , 161 , 162 , 163 , 164 , 165 , 166 , 167 , 168 , 169 , 170 , 171 , 172 , 173 Importantly, IEI that disrupt type I IFN–mediated immunity or autoantibodies against type I IFN do not impair humoral immune responses to RNA vaccines. 174 Furthermore, despite normal levels of neutralizing IgG, some patients with anti–type I IFN autoantibodies develop breakthrough COVID-19 pneumonia.…”
