SARS-CoV-2 antibody response duration and neutralization following natural infection.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The role of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) neutralizing antibody response from natural infection and vaccination, and the potential determinants of this response are poorly understood. Characterizing this antibody response and the factors associated with neutralization can help inform future prevention efforts and improve clinical outcomes in those infected.

Objectives

The goals of this study were to prospectively evaluate SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels and the neutralizing antibody responses among naturally infected adults and to determine demographic and behavioral factors independently associated with these responses.

Methods

Serum was collected from seropositive individuals at baseline, four-weeks, and three-months followin
