Pre-existing polymerase-specific T cells expand in abortive seronegative SARS-CoV-2 infection

2021-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Individuals with likely exposure to the highly infectious SARS-CoV-2 do not necessarily develop PCR or antibody positivity, suggesting some may clear sub-clinical infection before seroconversion. T cells can contribute to the rapid clearance of SARS-CoV-2 and other coronavirus infections 1–5 . We hypothesised that pre-existing memory T cell responses, with cross-protective potential against SARS-CoV-2 6–12 , would...
