Conducted in that fourth doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine to all adults aged 60 years or older January 2022, this observational study compared immune response—measured as anti–spike protein immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody titers—before and after third and fourth vaccine doses, thereby providing information on the magnitude and duration of the immune boost. The results show a significant but transient increase in IgG titers after the third dose, decreasing approximately 10-fold after 5 months; titers were then restored immediately after a fourth
