ABSTRACT
We studied the development and persistence of neutralising antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 ancestral strain, and Delta and Omicron (BA.1 and BA.2) variants in Vietnamese healthcare workers (HCWs) up to 15 weeks after booster vaccination. We included 47 HCWs with different pre-existing immune statuses (group 1 (G1) n=21, and group 2 (G2) n=26 without and with prior breakthrough Delta variant infection, respectively). The study participants had completed primary immunisation with ChAdOx1-S and booster vaccination with BNT162b2. Neutralising antibodies were measured using a surrogate virus neutralisation assay. Of the 21 study participants in G1, neutralising antibodies against ancestral strain, Delta variant, BA.1 and BA.2 were (almost) abolished at month 8 after the second dose, but all had detectable neutralising antibodies to the study viruses at week two post booster dose. Of the 26 study participants in G2, neutralising antibody levels to BA.1 and BA.2 were significantly higher than those to the corresponding viruses measured at week 2 post breakthrough infection and before the booster dose. At week 15 post booster vaccination, neutralising antibodies to BA.1 and BA.2 dropped significantly, with more profound changes observed in those without breakthrough Delta variant infection. Booster vaccination enhanced neutralising activities against ancestral strain and Delta variant, as compared to those induced by primary vaccination. These responses were maintained at high levels for at least 15 weeks. Our findings emphasise the importance of the first booster dose in producing cross-neutralising antibodies against Omicron variant. A second booster dose might be needed to maintain long-term protection against Omicron variant.
