Large clones of pre-existing T cells drive early immunity against SARS-COV-2 and LCMV infection

Summary: T cell responses precede antibody and may provide early control of infection. We analyzed the clonal basis of this rapid response following SARS-COV-2 infection. We applied T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing to define the trajectories of individual T cell clones immediately. In SARS-COV-2 PCR...
