ABSTRACT
Introduction: one way to determine the response to the SARS-Cov-2 vaccine can be done by quantifying IgG antibodies against the Spike protein of the virus (IgGS).
Objectives: the objective of the study was to determine if the level of antibodies generated changed with the type of vaccine administered.
Material and methods: a descriptive, cross-sectional and prospective study was carried out, with the patients who attended the laboratory, during the period from August 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021, to whom the IgGS study was requested by chemiluminescence, as part of their requested studies, in addition to having their complete vaccination schedule at the time of the study.
Results: the results show that in our population the application of vaccines with mRNA platforms predominated. The percentage of positive results obtained in general was 93.7%, the highest proportion of positives was found with Moderna 99.4% (n = 165), Sputnik 96.6% (n = 28) and Pfizer 94.9% vaccines.
Conclusions: the titers found cannot be correlated with the efficacy of the vaccine, since it is necessary to analyze other types of variables that can interfere with it.
