Uptake and safety of pneumococcal vaccination in adults with immune mediated inflammatory diseases: a UK wide observational study. Rheumatology, Article keae160. https://doi.org/10.1093/rheumatology/keae160

Objective The uptake and safety of pneumococcal vaccination in people with immune mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) is poorly understood. We investigated the UK wide pneumococcal vaccine uptake in adults with IMIDs and explored the association b...

Background: Methotrexate is the first-line treatment for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases and reduces vaccine-induced immunity. We evaluated if a 2-week interruption of methotrexate treatment immediately after COVID-19 booster vaccination improv...
