I've seen a lot about the vaccine and COVID , and would like to toss a few things out there. First, I'm a four time kidney transplant, I got the virus in March and just had a cough, it surely could have been a lot worse but than so can a bad pneumonia, I have not changed the way I do things, except for the mask wearing indoors. I'm always careful when I go places, always have been and regardless of what they say, virus's are sometimes unavoidable, since I have had it and am producing antibodies, I will not get a vaccine, now I want to say we are responsible for ourselves and should make our own decisions about what's right for you, we can be careful and live without fear.....now if your a brand new transplant patient, your at a higher risk than almost a one out there, so you need to limit your public involvement to a bare minimum, in conclusion stay vigilant, live wisely and not out of fear, ( we are His workmanship) Eph.2:10, God Bless Merry Christmas

@ca426 This is so well written. Thank you for your wise words. I too had COVID--much like yours--a little worse. I'd like t to know how long immunity to the virus lasts. Will be doing some reading about that. I may wait for the vaccine until more is known of its possible side effects.
