Vaccine non-responders and severe adverse events

Eyer Klaus, an Associate Professor at Aarhus University’s Department of Biomedicine, explores the causes, impact, and potential resolutions of vaccine non-responsiveness and severe side effects.
Antibody binding to human cell receptors is a crucial aspect of the immune response and plays a fundamental role in various physiological processes, including immune defense, signaling, and regulation of cellular functions. Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins, are proteins produced by the immune system in response to the presence of foreign substances, such as pathogens or abnormal cells.
