I am not sure why there is so much hub-bub around the Covid-19 vaccines, transplants (heart for me), and guidance from Mayo. My transplant team in Phoenix has been very clear from day one that:
1. In general do not take anything without checking with the transplant team first
2. In specifics, do not take a Covid-19 vaccine until Mayo tells you to do so.
Seems very clear to me.

That said, I understand people are anxious and information can relieve the anxiety. Yet given my success with the new heart I trust Mayo. Remember, when you walk in the lobby you see the big message that says "the needs of the patient come first".
Best always,
