COVID-19 vaccines: how effective are they in people with weakened immune systems?

The British Society for Immunology is pleased to hold this free public webinar ‘COVID-19 vaccines: how effective are they in people with weakened immune systems?’ Approximately half a million people in the UK have immune systems that function sub-optimally, either due to a medical condition or due to medication they take. How well do vaccines work for these people in protecting them from catching COVID-19? Join our panel of experts to hear about the cutting-edge research to understand the immune response after COVID-19 vaccination in people who are immunosuppressed and how this can be managed. What can we do in future to protect this group of people from COVID-19? What is the patient perspective and how can lived experience be meaningfully involved in immunology research? Participants: Sir Jeremy Farrar, Director of Wellcome Lynn Laidlaw, Patient and Public Involvement Contributor from UK Coronavirus Immunology Consortium Professor Paul Moss, University of Birmingham, Principal Investigator of UK Coronavirus Immunology Consortium Dr Michelle Willicombe, Imperial College London Chair: Dr Doug Brown, British Society for Immunology Information in the webinar correct as of 15 September 2021 when the webinar took place.
