TLDR
It is shown that reinforced 40µg intramuscular HBV vaccination schedules are now frequently recommended, either initially in people never vaccinated, or in the lack of an anamnestic response in other situations.
Abstract
HBV immunization is highly recommended in people infected with HIV. However, the classical schedule used in the general population has been shown to be insufficient in people living with HIV. This ...

Efficacy of covid-19 vaccines in immunocompromised patients: systematic review and meta-analysis

- 02 Mar 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the efficacy of covid-19 vaccines was compared between immunocompromised and non-immunocompensated patients. But, the results showed that a third dose of a covid19 mRNA vaccine was associated with seroconversion among vaccine nonresponders with solid cancers, haematological cancers, and immune mediated inflammatory disorders, although response was variable in transplant recipients.

Comparing Immune Responses to Inactivated Vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 between People Living with HIV and HIV-Negative Individuals: A Cross-Sectional Study in China

TL;DR: The immunogenicity of the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccines was lower among PLWH as compared to HIV-negative individuals, and a vaccination guideline specific for PLWH should be developed.

Human TLR9 confers responsiveness to bacterial DNA via species-specific CpG motif recognition

TL;DR: It is shown that human TLR9 expression in human immune cells correlates with responsiveness to bacterial deoxycytidylate-phosphate-deoxyguanylate (CpG)-DNA, and data suggest that hTLR9 conveys CpG-DNA responsiveness to human cells by directly engaging immunostimulating Cpg-DNA.
