Hi, thank you for reaching out to us.
For your information, The American College of Rheumatology COVID-19 Vaccine Clinical Guidance recommends people with autoimmune disease including lupus/SLE to take the COVID-19. However, it is best for your mother to do a pre-vaccination assessment and consult with her doctor regarding her suitability to receive the vaccine before registering for the vaccination.
This is only our general information regarding your inquiry. If you have further questions and in need of a second opinion, please contact us at (DoctorOnCall) to speak with our doctor in person. Thank you.
