SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination Coverage and Factors Associated with Low Uptake in a Cohort of People Living with HIV

People living with HIV (PLWH) are prioritised for SARS-CoV-2 vaccination due to their vulnerability to severe COVID-19. Therefore, the epidemiological surveillance of vaccination coverage and the timely identification of suboptimally vaccinated PLWH is vital. We assessed SARS-CoV-2 vaccination cover...

Resumo:People living with HIV (PLWH) are prioritised for SARS-CoV-2 vaccination due to their vulnerability to severe COVID-19. Therefore, the epidemiological surveillance of vaccination coverage and the timely identification of suboptimally vaccinated PLWH is vital. We assessed SARS-CoV-2 vaccination coverage and factors associated with under-vaccination among PLWH in Catalonia, Spain. As of 11.12.2021, 9945/14942 PLWH (66.6%) had received ≥1 dose of a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Non-Spanish origin (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 0.64, 95% CI 0.59-0.70), CD4 count of 200-349 cells/μL (aOR 0.74, 95% CI 0.64-0.86) or 350-499 cells/μL (aOR 0.79, 95% CI 0.70-0.88), detectable plasma HIV-RNA (aOR 0.61 95% CI 0.53-0.70), and previous SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis (aOR 0.58 95% CI 0.51-0.65) were associated with under-vaccination. SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis (437 [9.5%] vs. 323 [3.5%], p < 0.001), associated hospitalisations (10 [2.3%] vs. 0 [0%], p < 0.001), intensive care unit admissions (6 [1.4%] vs. 0 [0%], p < 0.001), and deaths (10 [2.3%] vs. 0 [0%], p < 0.001) were higher among unvaccinated PLWH. Vaccination coverage was lower among PLWH with a CD4 count
