This table compares the average titer levels (median/interquartile range = IQR) on T3 with T2 (different columns) for the different anti-SpikeS1 IgA, IgG, RBD-IgG antibodies as well as for cellular immunity via Interferon-γ release assay = IGRA measurements in patients who received different combinations of mRNA vaccine (different rows). For this evaluation, all participants with asymptomatic* or documented symptomatic** COVID-19 disease before and during vaccination up to T3 (6 months) were excluded.

BNT162b2 = BNT162b2-mRNA or tozinameran or brand name Comirnaty; 1273 = 1273-mRNA or brand name Spikevax.

*Asymptomatic COVID-19 disease definition–neither knowledge nor symptoms of COVID-19 disease, but IgG-antibody reaction to nucleocapsid (T0, T2, or T3) or the Spike protein subunit S1 (only T0) of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is positive.

**Symptomatic COVID-19 disease definition–SARS-CoV-2 PCR positive patients with clinical symptoms.
