    Abstract Purpose of review: The aim of this study was to summarize new data and perspectives in pretransplant vaccination, with a particular focus on COVID-19 vaccination and vaccination requirements.
    Recent findings: Pretransplant vaccination produces superior markers of immunity and is expected to have greater clinical benefit, compared with posttransplant vaccination. As such, efforts are underway to identify and characterize barriers to pretransplant vaccination, with a particular focus on COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy. Unfortunately, vaccine hesitancy is common in transplant patients, often motivated by individual side effect and safety concerns. COVID-19 vaccination requirements have been implemented in some centres, informed by ethical principles, including beneficence, utility and justice.
    Summary: Barriers to pretransplant vaccination can be understood in three categories: hard stops, including issues of vaccine availability, eligibility, safety and feasibility; soft stops, including issues of convenience, prioritization and care coordination; and volitional stops related to vaccine hesitancy and refusal. All of these barriers present opportunities for improvement based on recent data.

    Abstract Long-acting injectable antiretroviral therapy (LA-ART) is a powerful new addition to the treatments available for patients living with HIV, but broad acceptance and uptake could be compromised by what we know about patients' and clinicians' experiences with long-acting injectable antipsychotics (LAI-APs). Treatment of stigmatized conditions, such as psychiatric illness or HIV, using long-acting injection is ethically fraught with patients' fear of coercion and forced administration. Strategies that emphasize patient-centered, patient-directed care and that place limits on when LAI can be administered forcibly can help promote LA-ART's acceptance and use.

    Abstract Purpose of review: The approach to ongoing organ transplantation and management of COVID-19 in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTR) has evolved tremendously since the pandemic's beginning. We summarize the current literature surrounding the virology of SARS-CoV-2, epidemiology of COVID-19 in transplant recipients, review the clinical features and complications of COVID-19 in SOTR, and discuss the safety and efficacy of current therapies and candidate vaccines in this population.
    Recent findings: Despite initial suspensions in organ transplantation during early 2020, routine donor testing and de-crowding of hospitals have allowed transplant activity to resume at pre-pandemic rates. COVID-19-associated mortality in SOTR is similar to that of the general population, and lower than that of patients with end-organ disease awaiting transplant. The optimal approach to immunosuppression in SOTR with COVID-19 is unknown and disease severity may influence management decisions. Many vaccines in development are likely to be safe for immunocompromised hosts, though post-marketing investigations will be required to determine the efficacy in the SOTR.
    Summary: Though there are multiple unique considerations in the care of SOTR with COVID-19, immunosuppression does not appear to have a detrimental impact on overall outcome. Organ transplantation remains a lifesaving intervention and can be safely performed despite a global pandemic.

    Abstract Health care workers have been prioritized for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination, but vaccine hesitancy among workers may limit uptake. Institutions may wish to consider SARS-CoV-2 vaccine mandates for health care workers, but such proposals raise important ethical questions. Arguments supporting mandates emphasize the proposed favorable balance of harms and benefits for both individuals and communities, as well as moral duties of health care workers and organizations. Arguments in opposition seek to challenge some claims about utility and raise additional concerns about infringement on autonomy, damage to organizational relationships, and injustice. While available SARS-CoV-2 vaccines remain under an experimental designation, mandates may be excessively problematic, but following approval by the Food and Drug Administration mandates may be reconsidered. The authors summarize ethical arguments and practical considerations, concluding that mandates may be ethically permissible in select circumstances.
