It is imperative that you get vaccinated for pneumococcal infection. Your doctor can arrange the vaccination. Long Covid is not predictable. Visit this site for info: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd/pneumo/index.html

I know that side effects from Covid vaccines show a person's immune system is working as it should, but I'm honestly nervous about the possibility of side effects once my turn to be vaccinated rolls around. How likely are side effects w/each version?

Does the Covid vaccine respond well in patients with low WBC- low lymphocytes? Neutrophil ct is stable I have congenital neutropenia. I received 2 Pfizer vaccines and a booster. Im still in fear my immune system is too low to respond to the vaccine?
If you got the covid vaccine(both shots) but no booster does that mean that you are not protected because it waned? So, It would be like not never getting the vaccine in the first place. The booster is just the same thing trigger an immune response?
Lost spleen due to trauma. Up to date on vaccines. Without a spleen, otherwise a healthy 24yr old. Chances of fighting off COVID-19? Likelihood of survival if I develop pneumonia from it?
