I'm also high risk because of age and because I had my spleen removed because of Hodgkins. I got a shot. It should have been possible for most high-risk people to get shots. That was supposedly what they were reserving them for.
I'm sorry that you've had to go through so much. Hodgkins was one of the first diagnoses they gave me, but it was incorrect. When I saw pictures of all of those sick people standing in long lines waiting to get their flu shot, I felt bad for them. Some of them were on oxygen, so I decided to wait to get one. No matter how bad things are, I know there are a lot of people worse off than I am. I opted to wait, so those who are worse can get theirs.
WRONG. I know of at least two high risk people who have not been able to get it. One is a family member.Yet illegal kids and elderly are getting it.
