Abstract excerpt
The continuing emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants highlights the need to update COVID-19 vaccine compositions. However, immune imprinting induced by vaccination based on the ancestral (hereafter referred to as WT) strain would compromise the antibody response to Omicron-based boosters1-5. Vaccination strategies to counter immune imprinting are critically needed. Here we investigated the degree and dynamics of...
