A fourth dose of mRNA coronavirus vaccine boosts antibodies and other immune responses to higher levels than seen after the third dose, according to UK trial data.

Researchers recruited 166 adults who had received a booster dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA vaccine after two doses of either AstraZeneca’s viral vector vaccine or initial inoculation with Pfizer-BioNTech’s shots.
