Abstract

1205 Figure 1Respondents indicated which factors would have a positive influence on their likelihood of getting vaccinated against COVID-19;more than two-thirds of respondents indicated they would be more likely to pursue vaccination if they were presented with evidence of COVID-19 vaccine safety in lupus.[Figure omitted. See PDF]ConclusionsThese results indicate an opportunity for healthcare professionals and patient advocacy organizations to assuage unfounded patient concerns, such as vaccine interactions with medications or food allergies being a contraindication to COVID-19 vaccination, while reassuring patients that vaccine-triggered flares are rare.AcknowledgementWe would like to thank the Lupus Foundation of American for their partnership in this research.
