The CLL experts feel it is safe for their patients and I agree.

Hi,I am on ibrutinib with monthly Obinutuzumab , my consultant insisted I have the vaccine based on a lot of work done in Germany. I have had first jab and will be monitoring my Neutralising antibodies bi monthly, but I suspect I won't mount much of response due to my CLL, but at least I will know.

Stay safe.
