    Hi quite concerned,
    i too, as an MDS patient, am concerned. I think the the degree of worry is of course relative.
    I’m on “wait and see” and presently have mild neutropenia. I asked my Dr about travel to FL from NY an he was OK since i have the 3 shots. He recommended staying well masked (which i do with N95 plus a regular blue surgical as added protection).

    Jan 2017 i was diagnosed Low Grade MDS after a bone marrow biopsy. Have had CBCs every 3 months since. RBCs, WBCs and pltls low but not requiring treatment and no symptoms.
    Vaccinated Jan and March 2021 with Pfizer and booster in Oct.
    Small drop in WBC in my latest (Nov ) CBC, otherwise nothing.
