Here we assess 52 COVID-19 household contacts Studied peripheral blood mononuclear cells (Lymphocytes as opposed to neutrophils) T cells specific for spike, nucleocapsid, membrane, envelope and ORF1 SARS-CoV-2 epitopes, (Open Reading Frame, about a tenth of the viral genome) These T cells cross-react with human endemic coronaviruses. We observe higher frequencies of cross-reactivity Memory T cells cross reacted with nucleocapsid-specific antigens significantly Memory T cells did not seem to cross react with pre-existing spike-cross-reactive T cells Our results are thus consistent with pre-existing non-spike cross-reactive memory T cells protecting SARS-CoV-2-naïve contacts from infection, thereby supporting the inclusion of non-spike antigens in second-generation vaccines.
