ABSTRACT: Background
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine is thought to be the most effective preventive method of controlling the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic. Some patients with immune-related diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, however, may hesitate to be vaccinated for various reasons. Although several guidelines recommend vaccinating all IBD patients with inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, there is still a lack of real-world data on the safety of inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccines and COVID-19 vaccination rate in IBD patients. In this study, we investigated the reasons for hesitancy in COVID-19 vaccination, the COVID-19 vaccination rate, and the safety of SARS-CoV-2-inactivated vaccination in patients with IBD.Methods
This was a retrospective study. A total of 418 participants with IBD were enrolled to calculate the vaccination rates. A total of 232 patients with IBD who did not receive SARS-CoV-2 vaccination were recruited to investigate the reasons for hesitation. A follow-up survey of 151 IBD patients and 188 healthy participants who had received the SARS-CoV-2-inactivated vaccination was conducted to analyze adverse reactions.Results
The COVID-19 vaccination rate was 49.3% and almost half of the participants were 'Concerned about the safety of the vaccine (such as adverse reactions) due to IBD'. After SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, adverse reactions were mild or moderate. The adverse reactions in the IBD and non-IBD populations were roughly the same, and IBD medications did not increase the risk of adverse reactions.Conclusion
SARS-CoV-2-inactivated vaccination rates in IBD patients are still low and a significant proportion of patients are hesitant about the vaccine because of safety concerns. SARS-CoV-2-inactivated vaccination in patients with IBD appears to be safe.
