RESUMO
Few data are available on antibody response for some SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, and there is a lack of ability to compare vaccine responses in the same population. This cross-sectional study conducted in Nicaragua examines the SARS-CoV-2 antibody responses in individuals, previously exposed to high infection rates who have received various vaccines. The vaccines under comparison include well-known ones like Pfizer (BNT162b2) and AstraZeneca (ChAdOx1-S), alongside less-studied vaccines including Soberana (Soberana 02), Abdala (CIGB-66), and Sputnik V/Sputnik Light. Overall, 3195 individuals participated, with 2862 vaccinated and 333 unvaccinated. We found that 95% of the unvaccinated were seropositive, with much lower titers than the vaccinated. Among the vaccinated, we found that Soberana recipients mounted the highest anti-spike response (mean difference (MD) = 36,498.8 [20,312.2, 52,685.5]), followed by Abdala (MD = 25,889.9 [10,884.1, 40,895.7]), BNT162b2 (MD = 12,967.2 [7543.7, 18,390.8]) and Sputnik with AstraZeneca as the reference group, adjusting for age, sex, vaccine status, days after last dose, and self-reported COVID-19. In addition, we found that subjects with complete vaccination series had higher antibody magnitude than those with incomplete series. Overall, we found no evidence of waning in the antibody magnitude across vaccines. Our study supports the conclusion that populations with high infection rates still benefit substantially from vaccination.
