To vaccinate or not to vaccinate? That is the question.

@rosemarya @estrada53 Frankly I am purposely not contacting them. I want very much to get the vaccine and Mass General is extremely conservative - for instance, they advise against the shingles vaccine but most transplant centers do not. If I contact them and they say no I will feel I have to follow that advice. If I have heard nothing from them and every other good transplant center is saying yes I may go ahead and get it since I have not been told not to.
I have heard conflicting things about Mayo. I think I heard that MN said no and FL said yes. What is the official word from them, Rosemary?

I watched a video of a Mayo doctor and he advised for transplants to get the vaccination. He stated(trying to remember correctly) that instead of the 95 % effectiveness it would be around 30-40 % for transplant patients. I don't know tell you how to view it.
