Vaccines failures are uncommon, and in HIV-positive individuals whose CD4 count is \u2265500 cells\/mm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>, seroconversion is achieved in 73\u201394% of vaccinees following the second dose. Data were retrieved from the patient's file at the sexually transmitted disease clinic and the AIDS clinic describing this rare case of vaccine failure. A 35-year-old, HIV-positive MSM was vaccinated against HAV on 2007, while his CD4 count was 551 cells\/mm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>. Two years later, he was hospitalized due to acute HAV. The patient's serum drawn two months prior to the onset of acute HAV was retrospectively tested and showed no response to the vaccine. The source of the HAV infection was not identified. The patient's partner who was HIV-negative and had been vaccinated simultaneously with the same batch developed protective antibodies. In conclusion, HIV-positive patients and their providers should be informed about HAV vaccine failure, and post-immunization serologies to hepatitis should be considered to evaluate immunization response. Alternative approaches to develop immunity are needed for non-responders. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/ijsa.2010.010269","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,7,28]],"date-time":"2012-07-28T07:00:11Z","timestamp":1343458811000},"page":"529-530","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["A case of hepatitis a vaccination failure in an HIV-positive man who had sex with men in Israel"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Z","family":"Mor","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Levinsky STI Clinic, Ministry of Health, Sorasky Tel Aviv Medical Centre, Tel Aviv, Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Y","family":"Lurie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hepatitis Clinic, Sorasky Tel Aviv Medical Centre, Tel Aviv, Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E","family":"Katchman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"AIDS Clinic, Sorasky Tel Aviv Medical Centre, Tel Aviv, Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,7,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-ijsa.2010.010269","first-page":"1","volume":"55","author":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.","year":"2006","journal-title":"MMWR"},{"key":"bibr2-ijsa.2010.010269","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1586\/14760584.6.6.891"},{"key":"bibr3-ijsa.2010.010269","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(02)08764-0"},{"key":"bibr4-ijsa.2010.010269","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2893.2006.00822.x"},{"key":"bibr5-ijsa.2010.010269","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0264-410X(03)00502-4"},{"key":"bibr6-ijsa.2010.010269","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/516512"},{"key":"bibr7-ijsa.2010.010269","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/424666"},{"key":"bibr8-ijsa.2010.010269","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/374562"},{"key":"bibr9-ijsa.2010.010269","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2893.2009.01176.x"},{"key":"bibr10-ijsa.2010.010269","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0038-1648904"}],"container-title":["International Journal of STD &amp; AIDS"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/ijsa.2010.010269","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1258\/ijsa.2010.010269","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/ijsa.2010.010269","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,1]],"date-time":"2025-03-01T09:24:35Z","timestamp":1740821075000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1258\/ijsa.2010.010269"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2012,7]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2012,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1258\/ijsa.2010.010269"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1258\/ijsa.2010.010269","relation":{},"ISSN":["0956-4624","1758-1052"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0956-4624","type":"print"},{"value":"1758-1052","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2012,7]]}}}
