Here, Fahlberg et al. describe the cellular immune response during acute, resolving or progressive COVID-19 in SARS-CoV-2 infected non-human primates. The study identifies associations of monocytes and macrophage subtypes in lungs with disease outcome, IL-6 and IL-10 ratio in plasma, and viral replication in bronchial brushes.
