Serology pre- and post-challenge with Delta B.1.617.2/Omicron B.1.1.529. Serum was collected 21 days post vaccination against Lineage A or infection with Delta B.1.617.2, and on 5 DPI/DPE. a Anti-spike IgG response (Lineage A spike), measured by ELISA. Whisker-plots depicting median, upper and lower quantile, min and max values, and individuals. Kruskal–Wallis test, N = 16 animals. b Cross-reactivity of the IgG response, measured by Meso QuickPlex. Violin plots depicting median, upper (75th) and lower (25th) quantiles, and individual values. Two-way ANOVA, followed by Šídák’s multiple comparisons test. N = 16. c Individual neutralizing antibody titers against Delta B.1.617.2 and Omicron B.1.1.529. Points connected by lines indicate the same animal. Delta B.1.617.2 and Omicron B.1.1.529: Two-way ANOVA, followed by Šídák’s multiple comparisons test. Groups of pre-existing immunity: Two-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. N = 16. d, g Change in overall anti-spike IgG response after challenge (donors (d) and sentinels 1 (g)). Whisker-plots depicting median, upper and lower quantile, min and max values, and individual values. Change in titer is represented as Log2 (fold change over pre-challenge value). Dotted line indicates no change. Kruskal–Wallis test, N = 6. e, h Change in cross-reactivity after challenge/re-infection. Violin plots depicting median, upper and lower quantiles, and individual values. Change in titer is represented as Log2 (fold change over pre-challenge value). Dotted line indicates no change in titer. Two-way ANOVA, followed by Šídák’s multiple comparisons test. N = 6 (donors (e) and sentinels 1 (h)). fi Individual neutralizing antibody titers against Delta B.1.617.2 and Omicron B.1.1.529 after challenge. Points connected by lines indicate the same animal. Delta B.1.617.2 and Omicron B.1.1.529: Two-way ANOVA, followed by Šídák’s multiple comparisons test. Groups of pre-existing immunity: Two-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. N = 6 (donors (f) and sentinels 1 (=i)). black = naïve, dark blue = intramuscularly (IM) vaccinated, light blue = intranasally (IN) vaccinated, yellow = previously infected (PI). P-values stated were significant (<0.05). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
