@bosco17 I think if people are aware that the protection the vaccine is giving them is less due to their being on immunosuppressants then they hopefully will not get a false sense of protection. It's important that immunocompromised people are aware of that. I plan to have an antibody test myself. The study results released by Johns Hopkins at this point are after one shot. I had my second shot over a month ago so I am hoping that my response has improved over what they saw in the study after the first shot.

I think the bigger danger lies in them seeing others finally able to do more and then they too will follow along. I am dealing with that myself right now. It's very discouraging but from what I have heard, for us to be somewhat safe we need to wait until more people are vaccinated, preferably until we reach "herd immunity", if that is possible. Hopefully, those who have vaccine hesitancy will finally realize that they don't need to be concerned and choose to get a vaccine, protecting themselves and contributing to protecting others.

Here is a link to an article about some of the myths surrounding the vaccine for those who have "vaccine hesitancy" for whatever reasons. I think it really explains the inaccuracy of these myths that have been propagated by a small group of people for whatever reason. I put this in another response a day or two ago in a conversation about the vaccine. I think it answers pretty much all of the questions and concerns that people have.

Have you gotten the vaccine yet?
