However, it is important to note that 24% say they would not take the vaccine while 22% are uncertain. Conducted October 19 - November 17, the national survey included 703 people with lupus and 63 of their family members and friends. Respondents represented all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Those who would get the vaccine are just as motivated by wanting to protect others (97%) from the virus as they are about protecting themselves (98%). This finding is particularly poignant as the lupus population is considered more vulnerable to COVID-19 because their immune systems are weakened by the disease and many of its treatments.
