Effectiveness of Covid vaccines will be studied in people with cancer and other low immunity conditions
The immune response to Covid-19 vaccinations in patients with certain immunosuppressed conditions, such as cancer, is set to be investigated in a new study funded by the Medical Research Council (MRC).
As well as cancer, patients with inflammatory arthritis, disease of the kidney or liver, or who are receiving a stem cell transplant, may be at increased risk of the more severe complications of infection from Covid-19.
