More attention should be paid to personal protection and disease prevention. Vaccination of COVID-19 can effectively prevent COVID-19 virus infection and delay or prevent patients from developing into critical illness and reduce mortality. The safety and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccine in this population were evaluated in order to play a scientific and theoretical supporting role in guiding COVID-19 vaccination more scientifically, reasonably and effectively. The samples of this study were collected and tested in the second affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University. Patients with contraindications for vaccination will be excluded. The detected indexes included blood routine test, CD4, HIV virus load, COVID-19 antibody titer, antibody duration and other indexes of healthy people (control group) and HIV infenction people after vaccination ( 1, 3, 6 months after vaccination).
