“…Recent studies on immunological responses against SARS-CoV-2 provided a detailed picture of immune signatures in COVID-19 patients (either with severe disease, mildly symptomatic or asymptomatic) as compared to convalescent individuals, people that have been in close contact with a COVID-19 patient, and unexposed healthy donors. Such studies consistently reported a major role of T cell responses in developing immunity against SARS-CoV-2 [ 53 , 55 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 ]. Notably, T cell responses were shown to be polyfunctional (involving both CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes), stable, and lasting for at least six months after infection, even though anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies decline with time [ 63 , 65 , 69 ].…”
