@question5 I found this article that you may find helpful.

Normal Iron and Hemoglobin Levels Are Needed for Optimizing the Response to COVID-19 Vaccination:

I am not a medical professional, so would always suggest consulting with your doctor in order to make the decision that is best/right for you with your unique health concerns and risks. Have you reached out to ask for a recommendation from him/her?

Hi, yes I read that article hence my reaching out to mayoclinic. I am curious as to the approach drs at Mayo advise. My dr. Initially when my hemoglobin was around 7.5 and other numbers were low, said to wait until we retake bloodwork. But I approached her in email last week and she said to get the vaccine I don’t have to wait. However no further explanation.
Thanks !
