SARS-CoV-2 vaccines and infection induce antibody responses but the evolution of subsequent variants has resulted in the development of escape mutants. Here the authors characterise, at single cell level, the antibody response in donors after a third dose of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination and show difference in breadth, neutralisation and molecular signature according to the vaccination regimen used.
