Immunocompromised people require additional protection against COVID-19 because they are unlikely to mount a full response to COVID-19 vaccinations and have a higher risk of severe outcomes if infected. In December 2021, an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) was granted for pre-exposure prophylaxis in immunocompromised people. Here, Dr. Jonathan Li reviews trial data, EUA criteria, efficacy against the Omicron variant, and patient prioritization strategies.
