Abstract
In December 2020, France began vaccinations using the messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) to combat the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Based on the risk for severe COVID-19, patients with autoimmune diseases (AIDs) who are receiving, or about to receive, steroids or immunosuppressive drugs have been prioritized for vaccination.1
