Hi Denny,
I moved your question to the discussion where you received a response from @patyrod. I wanted to make sure you saw it here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/611127/

Mayo Clinic recommends getting the vaccine.

"Can I get a COVID-19 vaccine if I have an existing health condition?
Yes, if you have an existing health condition you can get a COVID-19 vaccine — as long as you haven't had an allergic reaction to a first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine or any of its ingredients. But there is limited information about the safety of the COVID-19 vaccines in people who have weakened immune systems or autoimmune conditions.

COVID-19 vaccines also might not fully protect people from COVID-19 who have a weakened immune system that is caused by HIV, certain conditions or medications. It might be necessary to continue taking precautions."
