Nilla will describe their serology studies on Covid-19 patients representing different disease severity as well as healthy individuals (hospital personnel, blood donors and pregnant women) infected with SARS CoV-2. Nilla will show the quality of antibodies (isotypes and neutralization) and the frequency of antigen-specific memory B cells varies in the population, and discuss what this might mean for potential protection against re-exposure of the virus.
