Makalede COVID-19 pandemisi dönemindeki erişkin çağı pnömokok aşılamasındaki artışın halka yayılan bilgilere dayandığı belirtilmiştir. Bunun yanında pnömokok aşılamalarının COVID-19 klinik seyri üzerine etkilerini araştıran birçok çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bazı çalışmalar pnömokok aşısının SARS-CoV-2 enfeksiyonuna karşı orta düzeyde koruma sağladığını belirtirken, özellikle erken dönemde yapılan çalışmalar herhangi bir etkisinin olmadığını ifade etmişlerdir. Daha güncel ve kapsamlı araştırmaların bu konuda net bir anlayış sunacağına inanıyorum. KW - Pnömokok aşıları KW - COVID-19 KW - İletişim N2 - I read with great interest the article by Karacepis and colleagues discussing the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on adult vaccinations. The article states that the increase in adult pneumococcal vaccinations during the COVID-19 pandemic is based on information spread among the public. Additionally, there are many studies investigating the effects of pneumococcal vaccinations on the clinical course of COVID-19. While some studies indicate that the pneumococcal vaccine provides moderate protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly those conducted in the early stages have stated that there was no effect. I believe that more recent and comprehensive research will provide a clearer understanding of this issue. CR - 1.Karaçepiş C, Mutlu HH, Gülek A, Mutlu HH.
