The time course of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 is not yet well elucidated, especially in people who underwent a vaccination campaign. In this study, we measured the antibodies anti-S1 and anti-RBD with two different methods, both in patients and in vaccinated subjects. One hundred and eight specimens from 48 patients with COVID-19 (time from the onset of symptoms from 3 to 368 days) and 60 specimens from 20 vaccinated subjects (collected after 14 days from the first dose, 14 days and 3 months after a second dose of Comirnaty) were evaluated. We used an ELISA method that measured IgG against anti-Spike 1, and a chemiluminescence immunoassay that measured IgG anti-RBD. In the patients, the antibodies concentrations tended to decline after a few months, with both the methods, but they persisted relatively high up to nearly a year after the symptoms. In the vaccinated subjects, the antibodies were already detectable after the first dose, but after the booster, they showed a significant increase. However, the decrease was rapid, given that 3 months after the second vaccination, they were reduced to less than a quarter. The conversion of the results into BAU units improves the relationship between the two methods. However, in the vaccinated subjects, there was no evidence of proportional error after the conversion, while in the patients, the difference between the two methods remained significant.
