Can you give a reference for "With mice, even one dose of mRNA vaccine gives essentially permanent antibody titers at a very high level- this is not the case for humans and unfortunately we do not yet know why", please?

It was from a personal correspondence with a researcher on mRNA vaccines who is interrogating their mechanisms; this paper however describes the finding:

Excellent review, thank you. How did you find the actual peer review (was there a link from the original publication)?

Again, don't bring a mechanism to an epidemiology fight, right?

Bring a mechanism to an ongoing conversation, a research project, or an outcomes surveillance party!

(I've never been invited to an "outcomes surveillance party.")

RRID does reviews of preprints and this one didn’t change much at all between the preprint and final version. Nature also sometimes posts the peer review files but they didn’t seem to for this one (yet).
