Hello Everyone,

Happy Thanksgiving to those that celebrate! My question is about the Covid vaccine. I do plan to get it soon, yet would like to know if anyone on Besremi has had any issues with the vaccine (Pfizer) All my previous shots have happened before I was taking Besremi. I never had any reactions from them. I have scheduled the vaccine a week in between my next dose. Also, not sure about the RSV vaccine either. Has anyone had that one? I'm not too sure I want it. Looks like minimal research on it. Thanks for your input!

I have done several COVID vaccines since being on Besremi. I have had no issues. I do make it a point to space out my vaccines my at least two weeks. I did not react well to getting flu and pneumonia at the same time. I will likely get the RSV vaccine in the near future.

Partly to your question: I had tragic outcome with the Moderna+Flu while on Bes. I also never had any abnormal vax reactions before.

Hunter's note on timing is very important. The worst option is choosing the strongest vax formulas, take them ~1 week apart and then to continue IFN doses when the very rare warnings are showing. You can read my many posts on a 1/million tragic outcome as my decline continues.

For the goal of reducing (the already extremely low) risks you're doing right by choosing Pfizer. It is a smaller dose than Moderna (30 vs 50mcg)

good Morning Pogm,

I have had four shots, only one on Besremi. No problem for me, and took flu shot same time. Best of Luck.
