Objectives: To evaluate influenza and pneumococcal vaccine coverage in patients taking biological therapy for chronic inflammatory joint disease and to identify factors associated with the decision to administer these two vaccines.
Methods: Retrospective cross-sectional questionnaire study of a cohort of 584 patients taking biological therapy for chronic inflammatory joint disease (rheumatoid arthritis or spondyloarthritis). We studied the influenza and pneumococcal vaccine coverage rates, information about these vaccines given to patients by the primary-care physician and rheumatologist, and reasons for not administering the vaccines.
