Professor Patrick Mark was recently involved in a study demonstrating that dialysis patients have suboptimal responses to COVID-19 vaccination. They appear to be particularly vulnerable to the Delta variant, making the recent introduction of booster vaccines for the ‘clinically extremely vulnerable’ an extremely welcome development. The study was published in the Lancet. Carr, E. J. et al. (2021) Neutralising antibodies after COVID-19 vaccination in UK haemodialysis patients. Lancet, (doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(21)01854-7)' Read the study here: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)01854-7/fulltext?fbclid=IwAR06u0GxyvMzHVVhoQ3lPbSQQGteiXImPYHm844-5_PTKS5huLXN6bpJWfM
