@lblauvel, I'm guessing no one will be able to provide a recommendation for folks with PMR and not on prednisone. I would put myself in that category since PMR really never just goes away but rather just goes into remission after treatment (just my non medical opinion). I get yearly flu shots and my only reaction has been a sore arm for a day at most. I am planning to get the COVID vaccine when it's my turn but I'm not sure when that will be.

Any update? My mom is in the same situation - prior PMR but no longer on prednisone - and just found out it's "her turn" for the vaccine. Thank you.

Will let you know how it goes for my mom, who's getting the first vaccine Sunday (also PMR but no longer on prednisone). Fingers crossed.
