Response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in Belatacept Kidney transplant recipients. A, Comparison of anti–severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) mRNA positive immune responses in kidney transplant recipients at month 3 after vaccination who were either on belatacept or on tacrolimus immunosuppressive regimen. B, Anti–SARS-CoV-2 mRNA antibody titers in kidney transplant recipients who received belatacept. The dot-plot shows all anti–SARS-CoV-2 mRNA titers at months 2 and 3 after vaccination. The red point shows the average; the red bar represents the interquartile. C, anti–SARS-CoV-2 mRNA positive immune responses in belatacept-treated kidney transplant recipients after the third vaccination.
