Showing the relationship between T cell defects, responses to vaccines and outcomes. Vaccines shift the disease severity to the milder end of the spectrum. Instead of fatal disease, vaccinated patients with T cell defects will have a milder version of the infection. There is a risk of Chronic COVID-19 in immunodeficient patients and a vigorous T cell response to vaccines shifts the disease severity to the milder end of the spectrum. COVID-19 disease severity according to WHO criteria.
