Vasculitis COVID-19 Vaccine 2022 Community Poll
Below are the results from our May 2022 survey.
To close out May’s Vasculitis Awareness Month, the Vasculitis Patient-Powered Research Network (VPPRN) and Vasculitis Foundation (VF) asked our community of patients with vasculitis to share their opinions and behaviors surrounding the COVID-19 vaccine.
We received an incredible response from our community – 1,244 total participants. Of that number, 1,083 are members of the VPPRN – you are powering the VPPRN so special shout-out to you! Thank you to all those who participated and for updating us on your health.
Take a look at what you told us.

Conclusions
Based on these results, we see significant progress in COVID-19 vaccination rates since February 2021.
94% of those who responded have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine (compared to only 30% in February 2021) AND
The number of individuals who have not received, or do not plan to receive, the COVID-19 vaccine has decreased substantially from 23% in February 2021 to just 6% in 2022.
