Our research in this report is important for patients with primary immunodeficiency.

Does COVID-19 vaccination affect gut microbiome? We find minimal, if any, impact, even under immunodeficiency. Results encourage vaccine acceptance esp. considering large microbiome shifts observed during infection 🙏🏽 brilliant lab members @Thav_Lab @MRC_TU @Cambridge_Uni
