My doc ordered these for me because I didn’t get antibodies from the vaccine and with CLL I am high risk for Covid.

Has any had Evushield injections or know anything about these antibodies?
I am currently going to the Mayo Clinic and had the same questions. Currently 43 and on W&W. I have had 3 Moderna shots. My antibody test in October showed I had antibodies. I was told by my dr to just get it, but I get scared when I see the side effects. I guess everything these days has side effects so I should just get this done. I wish there was more data on this but I haven’t seen much. I think the consensus is if you have CLL then its an extra layer of protection against these ongoing variants. So I am leaning on just getting the injections.

That’s great you got a doctor who ordered it for you, sadly some doctors are not aware of it. I was fortunate to get the Evusheld injection. It was two shots; one in each butt. I had no side effects. It’s highly recommended for immunicompromised like us.
Highly recommend reading what Neil has referenced. Due to being on a BTK inhibitor(Imbruvica)and no antibodies after 3 covid immunizations, my doctor approved the injections for me.
Got it. No side effects.
