Abstract
The vaccine is safe for patients with SLE and it does not affect the clinical manifestations of SLE including renal features, disease activity, or the requirement for steroids or cytotoxic drugs. However, the vaccine may trigger the generation of autoantibodies which is usually short term and is not associated with clinical significance.
