Viral vector-based antibodies vary from most customary immunizations in that they don't really contain antigens, but instead utilize the body's own cells to deliver them. They do this by utilizing an adjusted infection (the vector) to convey hereditary code for antigen, on account of COVID-19 spike proteins found on the outside of the infection, into human cells. By contaminating cells and training them to make a lot of antigen, which at that point trigger a safe reaction, the antibody mirrors what occurs during normal disease with specific microbes - particularly infections. This has the benefit of setting off a solid cell invulnerable reaction by T cells too the creation of antibodies by B cells. An illustration of a viral vector immunization is the rVSV-ZEBOV antibody against Ebola.
