Miyamoto et al. conduct a cohort study involving 4496 Japanese adults to assess the correlation between antibody levels and infection risk. Higher anti-N antibody levels are linked to reduced risks of both symptomatic and asymptomatic infections, unlike anti-spike (S) antibodies and BA.5 neutralizing antibodies, which mainly reduce symptomatic infection risk.
