Hi, @jerrynord. Welcome to the Connect Transplant discussion. I am happy to meet you and even more happy o read how you are implementing some great ideas to prevent exposure to the coronavirus. I think that we transplantees could teach others about how we do it day after day as our normal.
I like your idea for wearing a glove while pumping gas. Just today I have seen several people (not on here) questioning whether they could get COVID-19 by pumping gas.
I am a liver and kidney recipient. Please tell me a little about yourself. What organ did you receive? When? How is life going since the transplant?

I had a liver transplant in 2009 in Jacksonville when I was 68. One of the medicines I was put on immediately was Tacrolymus twice a day. I have been well ever since with no complications. I go to Mayo for my yearly checkup.
Amazing you have had both kidney and liver transplants. How have you been doing?
