AI Summary
Using single-cell sequencing, researchers studied immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 in healthy adults to understand why some individuals do not get COVID-19 after exposure. They identified unique immune responses associated with resisting viral infection, providing insights into potential protective mechanisms.
Scientists have discovered novel immune responses that help explain how some individuals avoid getting COVID-19. Using single-cell sequencing, researchers studied immune responses against SARS-CoV-2 infection in healthy adult volunteers. Not all exposed participants went on to develop a COVID-19 infection, allowing the team to uncover unique immune responses associated with resisting sustained viral infection and disease.
