Immunocompromised pts (autoimmune, cancer, transplants PID/IEI) make up 3%+ of the pop. But are disproportionally affected w breakthrough and severe outcomes The @CDC definition of who is immunocompromised is inadequate @fitterhappierAJ @zach_wallace_md @jeffsparks @JYazdanyMD
First issue is how do we define #immunosompromised? This is complex and not simply by ICD Dx for sure- many people carrying immune mediated Dxs are not functionally immunocompromised though defining who is more complex
