Abstract

Individuals respond differently to (booster) vaccinations due to differences in their characteristics (for example, age, gender, ethnicity, health status, additional diseases, medication simultaneously used, etc.). These characteristics (covariaat) can be used to predict the immune response of the individual and to determine whether someone will respond. In order to predict the individual response after vaccination, booster vaccine or even SARS-COV-2 infection, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics must be determined. With a mathematical model describing the PK PD, the relationship between the Covariaat and the associated immune response can be assessed.
