FYI, vector vaccines and mRNA vaccines also create t-cell immunity , not just antibodies. It’s not just “inactivated vaccines” that do so.

- lambdaba 5y agoI did not know that. Thank you. Possibly in lesser quantities though? It is only related to the spike protein in the case of Covid. As I understand the natural immunity has a different fingerprint even with covid?
- javagram 5y ago"natural" immunity would create antibodies and immunity that may be related to non-spike proteins of COVID-19 (I believe this depends on your own body's response and the severity of infection exactly what is generated). The vector and mRNA vaccines only expose the spike protein (in various forms), so they don't generate immunity to other proteins of COVID-19.
