CLL Vaccine - I am a post CLL treatment individual age 75, in which group will I fit in for covid-19 vaccine in Ontario, Canada? which vaccine should I get? Thanks

Hi Champlain,-

We have had numerous discussions on that subject- here is one from 10 days ago: healthunlocked.com/cllsuppo...

SNIP: all the experts say to take the first one available, since they all apparently reduce the fatality rate to near zero. That way you will be alive when the statistics show if a different vaccine is better than the others. Then you can take that one as a booster.

There was an excellent discussion one month ago (I found it in the "Related Posts" box on this page - upper right column on computer screens, scroll way down on tablets and mobile devices)

In Ontario you are in faze 2, which is next after the vaccination of 80+ is done. You would qualify into that group being 75 and having blood cancer. I think it is starting in April. I am in the same group. As far as the vaccine, we don’t have a choice which to take at the moment.
