We investigated whether antibodies stimulated by mRNA vaccination (BNT162b2), including 3<sup>rd<\/sup> dose boosting, differ from those generated by infection or adenoviral (ChAdOx1-S and Gam-COVID-Vac) or inactivated viral (BBIBP-CorV) vaccines. We analyzed human <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/topics\/immunology-and-microbiology\/lymph-node\" class=\"topic-link\" title=\"Learn more about lymph nodes from ScienceDirect's AI-generated Topic Pages\">lymph nodes<\/a> after infection or mRNA vaccination for correlates of serological differences. Antibody breadth against viral variants is less after infection compared to all vaccines evaluated, but improves over several months. Viral variant infection elicits variant-specific antibodies, but prior mRNA vaccination imprints serological responses toward Wuhan-Hu-1 rather than variant antigens. In contrast to disrupted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/topics\/immunology-and-microbiology\/germinal-center\" class=\"topic-link\" title=\"Learn more about germinal centers from ScienceDirect's AI-generated Topic Pages\">germinal centers<\/a> (GCs) in lymph nodes during infection, mRNA vaccination stimulates robust GCs containing vaccine mRNA and spike antigen up to 8 weeks post-vaccination in some cases.
