People who are very overweight are more likely to develop an acute corona pad than people of normal weight. Shortcomings can also occur in the field of vaccination prevention.
Italian researchers looked at the issue of influencing factors such as age, gender and body weight on the effectiveness of Corona vaccines. To do this, they had 248 health workers on the seventh day After the second dose of the Biontech vaccine, blood is drawn and titratedTiter is a measure of the amount of antibodies that can be detected in the blood after vaccination. There were significant differences by age, gender and body weight.
Those study participants younger than 37 fared betterAccording to Ärzteblatt, the Italian researchers found the highest titre values of 453.5 AU / ml here. In subjects 37 to 47 years of age, the titer decreased to 330.9 AU / mL, at age 47 to 56 it was 239.8 AU / mL, and at age 56 it was only 182.4 AU / mL , as well as the results of the study.
Men, the elderly and overweight: the worst combination of vaccinations against Corona
But not only age, but also gender and body weight are key factors influencing the effectiveness of the Corona vaccination. After the vaccination, the women developed more antibodies Both against coronaviruses and men: the caliber was 338.5 AU / ml in women and 212.6 AU / ml in men.

According to Italian researchers led by Gennaro Cilberto of the IRCCS Regina Elena National Cancer Institute in Rome, weight can also significantly reduce graft protection. People with a BMI over 30 have a caliber of 167.0 AU / mlBy comparison, subjects of normal weight (BMI 18.5 to 24.9) had antibody concentrations of 325.8 AU / ml after vaccination. Subjects with a BMI of 25 to 29.9 achieved values of 222.4 AU / ml.

The third dose of Corona vaccine for seriously overweight people?
According to Redaktionsnetzwerk Deutschland (RND), it has not been explained why vaccines work worse in obese people. But that is known Obesity causes chronic inflammatory reactions in the organismThis makes the immune system less responsive to many infections. This may be a possible cause of a decreased immune response to the vaccination.
The Italian researchers suggest Obese people An extra dose or a larger amount of vaccine may be givenAs larger studies confirm that the two conventional doses of the vaccine do not lead to the production of the required amount of antibodies in the body. (GG)
