Vero E6suggested: RRID:CVCL_XD71)Software and Algorithms Sentences Resources Macaques were enrolled from a specific pathogen-free colony maintained at the SNPRC and were tested free from SPF-4 ( SNPRCsuggested: (Southwest National Primate Research Center, RRID:SCR_008292)Samples were then transferred to the sample rack on EpMotion EpMotionsuggested: NoneFor antigenic stimulation cells were cultured overnight with SARS-CoV-2 specific peptide pools of the nucleocapsid (N), membrane (M) and spike (S) proteins (PepTivator SARS-CoV-2 peptide pool, Miltenyi Biotech, USA). SARS-CoV-2suggested: (Active Motif Cat# 91351, RRID:AB_2847848)Statistical analyses: Graphs were prepared and statistical comparisons applied using GraphPad Prism version 8 (La Jolla, CA) GraphPad Prismsuggested: (GraphPad Prism, RRID:SCR_002798)2-tailed Student’s t-test, ordinary analysis of variance (ANOVA) or one-way or two-way repeated measure analysis of variance (rmANOVA) with Geisser-Greenhouse correction for sphericity and Tukey’s post hoc correction for multiple-testing (GraphPad Prism 8) was applied wherever applicable and as described in the figure legends.

Researchers are encouraged to share open data when possible (see Nature blog).
Results from LimitationRecognizer: An explicit section about the limitations of the techniques employed in this study was not found. We encourage authors to address study limitations.Results from TrialIdentifier: No clinical trial numbers were referenced.
Results from Barzooka: We found bar graphs of continuous data. We recommend replacing bar graphs with more informative graphics, as many different datasets can lead to the same bar graph. The actual data may suggest different conclusions from the summary statistics. For more information, please see Weissgerber et al (2015).
Results from JetFighter: Please consider improving the rainbow (“jet”) colormap(s) used on pages 79 and 47. At least one figure is not accessible to readers with colorblindness and/or is not true to the data, i.e. not perceptually uniform.
