Association of Self-Reported COVID-19 Vaccination Status with COVID-19 Infection among Adult Long-Term Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Survivors.

ABSTRACT: Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients experience significant morbidity and mortality from coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) infection. Data are limited regarding long-term HCT survivors' uptake of and experiences with COVID-19 vaccination and infection. This study aimed to characterize COVID-19 vaccination uptake, use of other prevention measures, and COVID-19 infection outcomes in adult HCT recipients at our institution. Between July 1, 2021, and June 30, 2022, long-term adult HCT survivors were surveyed regarding overall health, chronic graft-versus-host (cGVHD) status, and experiences with COVID-19 vaccinations, prevention measures, and infections.
