Same-Arm Boosters Trigger Stronger Immune Response: Australian Study
Australian research, published in Cell, shows that administering COVID-19 booster shots in the same arm as the first dose generates a stronger, faster immune response due to "primed" macrophages near the initial injection site, potentially leading to improved vaccine design.
