Abstract
We have investigated the evolution of the neutralizing response against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants at 8 months after Pfizer-BNT162b2 vaccination in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)–naive (n = 21) and COVID-19–convalescent (n = 21) individuals. Neutralizing levels declined for all variants (range 2- to 3.7-fold). Eight months after vaccination, a significant proportion (4/21) of naive individuals lacked detectable neutralizing activity against the highly transmissible SARS-CoV-2 delta variant. In the convalescent group, the impressive high initial humoral response resulted in detectable neutralizing antibody levels against all variants throughout this period.
