Covid -19 vaccinations are to start for all blood cancer patients - How do you feel? - tick what applies
I would have liked to have ticked, ‘keen to have it but afraid it may not work for me’.
I suppose that comes under ‘worried about the future’ but only the first two choices appeared for me initially!

Questions extended within the allowance to enable , have a go now
Largely positive but just unsure about the uptake I'll have, and whether the 2nd dose should ideally come sooner.
There is nothing to lose. I don't believe it will do any harm but a lot still unknown about how effective it will be.
It would be useful to have a clearer indication of what percentage immunity response those of us with cll are likely to achieve with a first does of Covid-19 vaccine. Anything over 70% would make me feel more positive. (I appreciate some protection is better than none)
I voted other as I intend to first have the individualized discussion on March 30th with my specialist in addition to having a less heightened risk perspective due to my geographic location.
However, I perceive each person as having unique individual needs, and I believe that the science behind the vaccine support is sound.

As I've trusted just about every vaccine throughout my life, why should anyone mistrust this one? There are some people who it's not right for, and that's the same for lots of other vaccines too. I had my 1st one last week with no issues 😊
I will be first in the queue. Bring it on!!
I like to think through webinars i have listened to I have the information I need to make choices for myself but would be interested to see how others who have CLL and on watch and wait view this opportunity to have the vaccine.
I hope it will be effective; I hope people realise it's not the end of lockdown just yet. The consensus of opinion seems to be that it can do no harm.
As a Registered Nurse with Watch and wait CLL was fortunate to receive the Pfizer vaccine 12 days ago.... I am of the mind that some immunity is better than none. Trying to remain positive and hopeful is the best option I can give myself and others.
