RNA vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have demonstrated ∼95% efficacy in phase III clinical trials. Although complete vaccination consisted of 2 doses, the onset of protection for both licensed RNA vaccines was observed as early as 12 days after a single dose. The adaptive immune response that coincides with this onset of protection could represent the necessary elements of immunity against COVID-19. Serological and T cell analysis was performed in a cohort of 20 healthcare workers after receiving the first dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 vaccine. The primary endpoint was the adaptive immune responses detectable at days 7 and 10 after dosing. Spike-specific T cells and binding antibodies were detectable 10 days after the first dose of the vaccine, in contrast to receptor-blocking and severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) neutralizing antibodies, which were mostly undetectable at this early time point. Our findings suggest that early T cell and binding antibody responses, rather than either receptor-blocking or virus neutralizing activity, induced early protection against COVID-19. The study was funded by a generous donation from The Hour Glass to support COVID-19 research. RNA vaccines have shown efficacy in preventing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as early as 12 days after the first dose. Vaccine efficacy onset presents a unique opportunity to define the necessary elements of immunity against COVID-19. Kalimuddin et al. tracked the serological and T cell responses longitudinally in 20 healthcare workers after the first Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 vaccine dose. Anti-spike immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgA antibodies and spike-specific T cells were detectable at day 10 after the first dose; neutralizing and receptor-blocking antibodies remained mostly undetectable at this time point. These results suggest that binding antibodies and T cell responses are responsible for early protection against COVID-19 and call for circumspection on the prevailing notion that neutralizing antibodies are absolutely required for protection. Kalimuddin et al. show that spike protein-binding antibodies and spike-specific T cells, but not neutralizing antibodies, could explain the onset of vaccine efficacy after the first dose of BNT162b2 vaccination. Their findings provide insight into the components of the adaptive immune response necessary for protection against COVID-19.
