Led by the researchers at Johns Hopkins University in the United States, the study concluded that in contrast to immunocompetent participants in vaccine trials, a proportion as low as 17 per cent of solid organ transplant recipients mounted a positive antibody response to the first dose of SARS-CoV-2 messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines. However, for those receiving anti–metabolite maintenance immunosuppression were less likely to respond. As a part of the study, the researchers assessed antibody re
