Conflict of interest statement

This study was supported by US Department of Veterans Affairs (grant 5I01BX001353 to PH). Funding sources have no role in the study and manuscript preparation. YZ and YL contributed equally. YZ, ZC, CZ, and RL recruited participants, collected specimens, did the clinical laboratory tests, and interpreted findings; YL and LT did the neutralisation assays and assisted statistical analyses; YX and ZZ interpreted findings and revised the manuscript; MC guided statistical analysis and did the data quality checks; PH conceived and designed the study, did the statistical analysis, and wrote the manuscript. No authors were precluded from accessing data in the study, and they accept responsibility to submit for publication. All authors read and approve the final manuscript. YZ and YL contributed equally. We thank the nurses and technicians at the Division of Laboratory Medicine at Xiangyang Central Hospital for their assistance in participant enrollment, blood collection, and sample preparation.
