  eLife assessment

  The authors collected and analyzed blood samples from >9,000 participants from two cross-sectional cohort studies in the UK, the ALSPAC cohort and the TwinsUK cohort. They measured anti-Nucleocapsid and anti-Spike antibodies using the collected blood samples. They investigated the variation in antibody levels and risk factors for lower antibody levels following each round of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. They identify that following the third vaccination, risk factors associated with low antibody response after the first vaccination are less likely to lead to sub-protective levels. While this finding is of potential importance, the presentation of the data is diffuse and not focused at times, and more discussion is needed to highlight its relevance to the current stage of the pandemic.
