By deep immune profiling, we identified three immunotypes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients including: (1) patients with robust activation and proliferation of CD4 T cells, relative lack of cTfh, together with modest activation of TEMRA-like as well as highly activated or exhausted CD8 T cells and a signature of T-bet+ PB; (2) Tbetbright effector-like CD8 T cell responses, less robust CD4 T cell responses, and Ki67+ PB and memory B cells; and (3) an immunotype largely lacking detectable lymphocyte response to infection, suggesting a failure of immune activation.
