We are entering 2021 with an expanding and effective COVID-19 vaccine armamentarium. Recent interim results from COVID-19 vaccine trials, including more than 80,000 participants worldwide, demonstrate remarkable efficacy and low rate of serious adverse events. Based on experience with other vaccines in transplant recipients and knowing the risk of severe COVID-19 in this population, we believe that COVID-19 vaccines provide potential benefit with minimal risk. We strongly support and encourage COVID-19 vaccination of our transplant recipients.
我们正带着不断扩大且有效的 COVID-19 疫苗武器进入 2021 年。最近 COVID-19 疫苗试验的中期结果,包括全球超过 80000 名参与者,显示出显著的疗效和低严重不良事件发生率。基于在移植受者中使用其他疫苗的经验,并且了解到该人群中 COVID-19 严重感染的风险,我们认为 COVID-19 疫苗具有潜在的益处且风险最小。我们强烈支持并鼓励我们的移植受者接种 COVID-19 疫苗。
