    AbstractRecommendations for vaccination of patients with rheumatic Diseases. Patients with rheumatic diseases are particularly at risk from infections. Vaccinations are suitable to reduce this risk. Current Recommendations of national (STIKO and Wagner et al.) and international committees (EULAR) provide a basis for the secure and effective use of vaccinations.Important new developments, such as sequential vaccination against pneumococcus or the approval of a vaccine against Herpes Zoster, improve the possibilities of an effective infection protection. Special attention must be paid to the current recommendations for the use of live vaccines like MMR vaccination in patients under immunosuppressive therapy.Thieme. All rights reserved.
