To date, there are no data available on the safety of COVID-19 vaccines in Latin American patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
Characterize safety of COVID-19 vaccines in Latin American (LATAM) patients with Multiple Sclerosis (pwMS).
A cross-sectional study between February 1, 2021, and April 30, 2021. Individuals with MS from LATAM countries were invited to participate in a self-administered web-based survey, through MS patient organizations from the region.
393 vaccinated pwMS from 10 different Latin American countries were included. The vaccines administered were: inactivated virus vaccines (IVV) in 38.2% of patients, adenovirus vector vaccines (AdV) in 48.8% and mRNA vaccines 13%. All patients received at least one dose of any of the COVID-19 vaccines and 123 (31.3%) declared receiving a second dose. Mean (SD) age 41.5 (11.8) years, 82.4% female, MS disease duration: 8.4 (8.2) years. No serious adverse events were reported with any of the COVID-19 vaccines after either the first or second dose. A lower frequency of adverse events was found with IVV (22%) in comparison with AdV (46.4%) and mRNA (35.3%) ( < 0.01). Five participants reported having an MS relapse after IVV first dose.
COVID-19 vaccines applied in LATAM proved safe for MS patients.
迄今为止,尚无关于新冠病毒疫苗在拉丁美洲多发性硬化症(MS)患者中安全性的数据。
描述新冠病毒疫苗在拉丁美洲多发性硬化症(pwMS)患者中的安全性。
一项于2021年2月1日至2021年4月30日开展的横断面研究。通过该地区的MS患者组织,邀请来自拉丁美洲国家的MS患者参与一项基于网络的自我管理调查。
纳入了来自10个不同拉丁美洲国家的393名接种疫苗的pwMS患者。所接种的疫苗为:38.2%的患者接种了灭活病毒疫苗(IVV),48.8%接种了腺病毒载体疫苗(AdV),13%接种了mRNA疫苗。所有患者均接受了至少一剂任何一种新冠病毒疫苗,123名(31.3%)宣称接种了第二剂。平均(标准差)年龄为41.5(11.8)岁,女性占82.4%,MS病程为8.4(8.2)年。在接种第一剂或第二剂任何一种新冠病毒疫苗后,均未报告严重不良事件。与AdV(46.4%)和mRNA(35.3%)相比,IVV的不良事件发生率较低(22%)(<0.01)。5名参与者报告在接种IVV第一剂后出现MS复发。
在拉丁美洲应用的新冠病毒疫苗对MS患者而言是安全的。
