Getting insufficient sleep in the days surrounding a vaccination could weaken its effectiveness, particularly for men, a new study has found.
Dr. Marc Siegel, clinical professor of medicine at NYU Langone Medical Center, was not surprised by the study's findings , given sleep's proven connection to the immune system.
Yet the researchers estimated that insufficient sleep in the days surrounding a COVID vaccine could result in reduced antibodies similar to what would be seen two months after receiving the jab.The researchers looked at two different types of studies: self-reported, where the participants submitted their own sleep patterns, and objective, where the participants’ sleep was tracked by special devices or in a sleep lab.
For the objective studies, there was a"robust decrease in antibody response" for men, the findings stated. Also, he said more research is needed to determine the specific windows of time when sleep might be most important.
