A longitudinal analysis of the neutralizing antibody response dynamics in 214 COVID-19 convalescents up to 16 months after infection shows that despite substantial declines in antibody levels over time, they could still provide protection against circulating variants even after one year of infection in most individuals, although neutralizing activities were reduced, particularly against Beta, Delta and Mu SARS-CoV-2 variants.
