We calculate the change in the effective mass and width of a Z boson in the
environment of a quark-gluon plasma under the conditions expected in Pb-Pb
collisions at the LHC. The change in width is predicted to be only about 1 MeV
at a temperature of 1 GeV, compared to the natural width of 2490$\pm$7 MeV. The
mass shift is even smaller. Hence no observable effects are to be expected.
