ABSTRACT
The pandemic of COVID-19 is still rampaging all over the world, so it is urgent to popularize vaccination. Meanwhile, pulmonary tuberculosis is one of the chronic infectious diseases with a high incidence in China. Since these diseases all occur in lung tissue, patients with TB and COVID-19 co-infection show more serious conditions and poorer treatment effects. However, we have limited knowledge about the protective efficacy, immunogenicity and safety of COVID-19 vaccine in patients with TB at present, with a lack of corresponding evidence-based medicine as well. Therefore, this paper reviews the pathogenesis and epidemiology of TB, discusses the immune status of patients with TB and summarizes the existing proposals for vaccination of patients with TB at home and abroad. Furthermore, we analyze the existing clinical trials in TB patients and other special populations, and finally discuss the strategy of vaccination for patients with TB during the COVID-19 pandemic and the necessity of clinical research on COVID-19 vaccines with target population of TB patients.
