While we're still learning more about COVID-19 every day, we do know that having a chronic condition puts you at higher risk of severe illness from the virus. Getting your vaccine is your best protection against the virus. But there are also things you can do to minimize your risk if you have a weakened immune system or are immunocompromised.
“In a very terrible situation, I felt safe and secure. I just felt like, that night, the doctors and staff knew the right thing to do.”
