Resumo: Studies have shown reductions in the immune response capacity with the aging process (immunosenescence). Lifestyle factors (physical activity and diet) have been investigated as possible adjuvants to improve the effect of vaccines on the immune system in the elderly. The aim of this opinion article is to analyze studies on physical activity and the effect of influenza vaccines in an attempt to suggest that their results can also be found in future studies on physical activity and vaccines against COVID-19. Considering the results of the studies analyzed, it could be suggested that the practice of physical activity improves responses to the influenza vaccine. Thus, it could be assumed that, when transferring these findings to COVID-19, the importance of regular physical activity in the specific elderly population becomes extremely relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Fatores de estilo de vida (atividade física e dieta) começaram a ser investigados como possíveis coadjuvantes para melhorar o efeito das vacinas sobre o sistema imunológico em idosos. O objetivo deste artigo de opinião é analisar os estudos sobre atividade física e o efeito de vacinas contra a influenza, na tentativa de sugerir que os seus resultados possam ser encontrados, também, em futuras pesquisas sobre atividade física e vacinas contra o COVID-19. Considerando os resultados dos trabalhos analisados, pode-se sugerir que a prática de atividade física melhora as respostas à vacina contra a influenza. Desta forma, pode-se supor, que ao se fazer a transferência destes achados para o COVID-19, a importância da prática regular da atividade física na população específica de idosos passa a ser extremamente relevante durante a atual pandemia.  Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.
