To the Editor:During the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)pan-demic globally,patients with chronic liver diseases(CLD),par-ticularly cirrhosis,hepatobiliary malignancies,candidates for liver transplantation(LT),and immunosuppressed LT recipients appear to be at increased risk of infections,which leads to an increase in mortality[1-6].Apart from physical distancing,quarantine and isolation,vaccination is crucial for the restraining of the epidemic and the protection from severe acute respiratory syndrome coron-avirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)infection and aggravation of COVID-19[7,8].A recent prospective,multicenter,open-label study in China has demonstrated the safety of inactivated whole-virion SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in patients with CLD.
