I have one kidney and i want to get the covid 19 vaccination is it safe with 1 kidney?

It would be safer than an infection with covid. That virus has been shown to target many internal organs including the kidney. It is also becoming evident that the germ will continue to circle the globe for years to come.

I can help you from a personal standpoint - I also have only 1 kidney. I received my vaccine in February and everything went great with both doses. Seen your muscles do all the work when injected with Covid-19 vaccine. no need to worry about that one wonderful kidney!

Get the vaccine. I did. Millions of people have taken. One kidney is more than a person needs for optimal health. Wish you good health!
