Transplant Patients Scared After COVID Vaccine Revelation
Newsy
Johns Hopkins University found only 54% of fully vaccinated organ transplant recipients developed antibodies.
"I remember getting my test results at four in the morning and excitedly rushing to check them and being just devastated to learn that the vaccine had produced no immune response in me at all," Candida Moss said. As a kidney transplant recipient, Candida Moss is at a high risk of catching COVID-19. So she rushed out to get vaccinated the first chance she could. But a test taken weeks after her second dose showed Moss' body never developed the necessary antibodies to protect her from the coronavirus. Moss: "It's very scary. … It's very difficult for me to know, 'How do I navigate the world now [that] everyone is wandering about without masks on?'"More Related News
