Abstract

This project will evaluate the magnitude and duration of COVID-19 vaccine immune response over time in persons with and without HIV (control). Laboratory analysis investigating both antibody and cellular immune responses will also consider recognition of emerging Variants of Concern. This study also includes looking at socio-demographic and other correlates of immunity differences to try to help direct public health response around handling vaccination for individuals living with HIV and, potentially, other immunocompromised individuals.
