I am a liver transplant recipiant and am wondering how safe these top 3 Covid injections are for transplants. I would like Mayo to make a statement on these as they do for other medicines as they do for other medicines. As we are immune compromised and may get offered a vaccine I would like to know ahead of time.

@jerrynord, - Jerry, I think that we are all (I know that I am) having similar concerns about COVID vaccine. We are fearful of it being rushed through trials and are concerned about its safety. I have complete confidence to place my trust in Mayo, and all of our esteemed transplant centers to give us the information and guidance that we will need when the vaccine is approved and available.

I would like to stress that there is a lot of confusing and conflicting information that is coming thru a variety of media and news outlets. To locate trustworthy, accurate, and current information go to sites like Mayo Clinic, CDC and FDA.
