الوصف: | OBJECTIVE: Uganda has registered fewer coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases and deaths per capita than Western countries. The lower numbers of cases and deaths might be due to pre-existing cross-immunity induced by circulating common cold human coronaviruses (HCoVs) before the COVID-19 pandemic. To investigate pre-existing mucosal antibodies against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of COVID-19, a comparison was performed of IgA reactivity to SARS-CoV-2 and HCoVs in milk from mothers collected in 2018. METHODS: Ugandan and United States milk samples were run on an ELISA to measure specific IgA to SARS-CoV-2 and HCoVs NL63, OC43, HKU1, and 229E spike proteins. Pooled plasma from United States SARS-CoV-2-positive and negative cases were positive and negative controls, respectively. RESULTS: One Ugandan mother had high milk IgA reactivity against all HCoVs and SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins. Ugandan mothers had significantly higher IgA reactivity against the betacoronavirus HCoV-OC43 than United States mothers (P = 0.018). By contrast, United States mothers had significantly higher IgA reactivity against the alphacoronaviruses HCoV-229E and HCoV-NL63 than Ugandan mothers (P < 0.0001 and P = 0.035, respectively). CONCLUSION: Some Ugandan mothers have pre-existing HCoV-induced IgA antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, which may be passed to infants via breastfeeding. |
