In this single-center retrospective cohort study, there was no difference in the severity of COVID-19 disease between vaccinated and unvaccinated patients with hematologic malignancies. Recent anti-B-cell therapy was associated with more severe illness.
The effect of vaccination on severity of subsequent COVID-19 in patients with hematologic malignancies (HMs) is unknown. In this single-center retrospective cohort study, we found no difference in severity of COVID-19 disease in vaccinated (n = 16) versus unvaccinated (n = 54) HM patients using an adjusted multiple logistic regression model. Recent anti-B-cell therapy was associated with more severe illness.
