Vaccine does work

After reading countless posts on how the covid vaccine does not work very well on patients with cll I put a direct call into my clinic. Well it seems we DO achieve immunity...lots of us! I will be having part 2 of the Moderna and excited. My numbers and globs are normal bc of BR chemo over a year ago. It's going to be very effective . So get your vaccine. And be positive we have another chance today. I will also be getting the immunity test a month after the 2nd dose to make sure. Yay!

I get my second Moderna in 2 weeks and will be tested 3 months later for response. Good luck and 🍻 to some immunity!

What is the immunity test you are speaking of? My oncologist seems reluctant about being able to test to see if the COVID vaccine is effective and I have developed the necessary antibodies.

Not an immunity test more of an antibody test.

2nd Pfizer dose scheduled for tomorrow and antibody test for two weeks after. I’m confident that I will develop antibodies. Maybe not as many as a completely heathy person but anything is something. Even with poor response they predict a mild covid if you do get it, which is a guarantee I would be happy to receive!

Good going. Better than nothing or not at least trying.
