“…The proportion of patients with antibody response to COVID‐19 vaccines varied from 23% to 47% (Table 1 ) 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 and was lower compared to patients with other hematologic malignancies and healthy controls. 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 Agha et al 37 showed that patients with CLL were significantly less likely to develop SARS‐CoV‐2 antibodies than patients with other hematologic malignancies (23.1% vs. 61.1%, p = .01). This, in combination with advanced age and other comorbid conditions, put patients with CLL at increased risk of morbidity and mortality from SARS‐CoV‐2 infection, despite the protective role of vaccines in the broad population.…”
