La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI), US, scientists demonstrated how antibodies obtained from a clinical study participant attach to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and neutralise the virus. The vaccine prompts the body to produce the spike protein, which allows the immune system to develop antibodies against the real virus.
