Have you received warning about Paxlovid from your transplant team?

My Kidney/Liver Transplant was in June 2019. I take 4mg of tac and 4 Cellcept capsules daily. After two Moderna shots I had zero antibodies. So I took two more - which did show antibodies. A month ago I went for my Booster, and since I had a Transplant, they gave me a full dose. I hope this information helps others. I have received ZERO direction from my Phoenix based transplant team and have been following Johns Hopkins instead.

Hi @benlam11 Congratulations on your wonderful transplant AND your covid antibodies. That is awesome...You won the lottery! (I think the current percentage chance for an immune suppressed transplant patient to get antibodies from the vaccine is about 50%).

Hi @jennifer0726 You and I are in same boat when it comes to zero antibodies from the vaccine. Are you looking into possibly getting the new AstraZeneca Evusheld antibodies shot if the vaccine booster doesn't do anything? Evusheld is two shots that you get at the same time and you take it every six months to keep the covid antibodies in your system. The supply is very limited right now, but the manufacturer is gearing up for a greater supply in a few months.
