Abstract

In this project we will investigate, using highly sensitive immune assays, the development of short and long-lasting immunity, both humoral and cellular, specific against SARS-cOv-2, at the time of infection and at different time points afterwards up to 24 months in previously healthy individuals, patients with relevant co-morbidities, solid organ transplant patients receiving chronic immunosuppression and patients with malignancies receiving chemotherapy.
