Evusheld and sports

[Reinhard]

I had my 5th jab last week, I always produced antibodies but surprisingly after some discussion with my doc I additionally will get Evusheld on Tuesday next week. I am of course happy about a double protection but I have booked a ski tour in the Alps on Wednesday. This will be quite demanding in high altitude between 3000 and 4000 m.

I learned that I don't have to expect side effects with Evusheld.

Do you think strenuous sport will cause any problem that short after an Evusheld injection?

Best regards

Reinhard

I have had the Evusheld shots ( there were two of them) and the nurse had me wait about an hour to make sure I didn't have a reaction. (I didn't) and felt fine afterward. I'm not a doctor though. Maybe a quick call to yours would put your mind at ease. I haven't heard of any precautions that are needed, but it's always good to check.

I will talk to my doc for sure. Thanks

no side effects at all after my shot and the administering nurse said after 200 patients no negative side effects

Thanks a lot

I'd be tempted to delay the shot until after your ski tour - exercise at 3000-4000m is quite a demand on anyone's body (I speak as an ex ski instructor), even for someone fit - which I know you will be, to even be planning this! A great many health professionals would have no experience of the effects of this type of altitude.

You are right, to delay it would be safest was.

It would be a great shame to not enjoy your day's ski touring - there won't be many more opportunities this season. Have fun 🎿😊

So I had the shots yesterday, and as far as I can tell, no side effects. I sleep on my back, and it was fine. No pain at the injection sites.
