Abstract

As demonstrated by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, coronaviruses pose a significant pandemic threat. Here, we show that coronavirus disease 2019 mRNA vaccination can induce significant levels of cross-reactive antibodies against diverse coronavirus spike proteins. While these antibodies are binding antibodies that likely have little neutralization capacity and while their contribution to cross-protection is unclear, it is possible that they may play a role in protection from progression to severe disease with novel coronaviruses.
