Immunodeficiency UK supports the two statements issued in March 2021 by The Supply and Access for Everyone (SAFE) Task Force* and the International Patient Organisation for Primary Immunodeficiencies (IPOPI) on two key relevant topics to patients with PIDs:
- Patients with PID need sustained & continued access to their Ig therapies!
- Managing demand for immunoglobulins: PIDs are a priority indication at all times
