T cells and Natural Immunity to COVID



In this video, I talk about the importance and different functions of T cells as it pertains to natural immunity to COVID. People with natural immunity to COVID develop antibodies as well as T cell responses to many different parts of SARS-CoV-2 not just a spike protein. I talk about 2 studies on natural immunity to COVID. As always, there are links to the studies below.
