SAN ANTONIO (June 30, 2021) In a U.S. and Swiss study, nearly all patients with cancer developed good immune response to the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines three to four weeks after receiving their second dose, but the fact that a small group of the patients exhibited no response raised questions about how their protection against the virus will be addressed moving forward.
Among the 131 patients studied, 94% developed antibodies to the coronavirus. Seven high-risk patients did not. We could not find any antibodies against the virus in those patients, said Dimpy P. Shah, MD, PhD, of the Mays Cancer Center, home to UT Health San Antonio MD Anderson. That has implications for the future. Should we provide a third dose of vaccine after cancer therapy has completed in certain high-risk patients?

A striking look at the UK justice system – podcasts of the week Hannah J Davies, Hannah Verdier and Elena Morresi
Picks of the week
Josie Bevan’s Radio 4 series and podcast, Prison Bag, charted her family’s unexpected and traumatic experience with the UK penal system following husband Rob’s conviction for fraud. This striking and honest follow-up considers the justice system more generally, and what it seeks to achieve. Insights come from the likes of Carl Cattermole, who wrote a book about his experience in Wormwood Scrubs and describes prison as a “static pirate ship”, and Dave Merritt, whose son Jack was killed in the London Bridge terror attack in 2019 while working with ex-offenders.
