Many of the COVID-19 vaccines studies have included a small number of people living with HIV in their trials. Despite limited data, available information suggests current WHO recommended COVID-19 vaccines are safe for people living with HIV. The currently available vaccine products are not live vaccines, they include genetic material from SARS-CoV-2 which cannot replicate. Kindly share her complete history either she is no insulin or oral hypoglycaemic medication and what medication she taking for hypertension and HIV , Last CD4 count done and value of it will be very helpful in deciding that.
