B. I and III are correct
C. II and III are correct
D. All statements are correct
9. A vaccine for SARS-CoV-2 in clinical trials generated neutralizing IgG
antibodies, antigen-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T effector cells, and memory B

B. Peptides generated from the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine were presented in MHC class
II molecules.
C. Neutralizing antibodies provide protection by activating complement.
D. Dendritic cells did not need to be activated by the vaccine to produce
neutralizing antibodies or CD8+ effector T cells.
