Hi @contentandwell 😊
I was just reading the CDC comments regarding Evusheld and it appears that they are still recommending to take the Evusheld shot even though it's not effective on the latest variants. It sounds like there may be a small percentage chance that the older variant you come in contact with may be neutralized by the Evusheld antibodies. I am going to be curious how each hospital and doctor responds to this new data. It sounds like some hospitals and doctors are not going to bother recommending it for a small percentage chance that it will be effective on the variant you come in contact with. Which hospital is your transplant team...Mayo?

@hello1234 My transplant hospital is Mass General in Boston, one of the foremost research hospitals in the country.

I realize it is possible that a person could catch an older variant but the likelihood of that is pretty slim.
