How well COVID-19 vaccines work in people with tuberculosis

This trial is testing how well COVID-19 vaccines work in people who have tuberculosis (TB). Researchers want to understand whether people with TB develop the same protective immune response after vaccination as healthy people do. The study will compare the body's immune response in both groups using blood tests after vaccination.

People with tuberculosis are at higher risk for severe COVID-19 illness, so it's important to know whether this treatment protects them as effectively as it does healthier people. Understanding how well the vaccine works in this vulnerable group will help doctors better protect patients with TB.
