Some of the online surveys conducted suggest that people with ME are lesss likely to get side effects from mRNA based vaccines like Moderna and Pfizer, than Astra-Zeneca, which is what the uk has been offering up until now. But it seems like Moderna is now being offered to younger people here (because of the platelet issue I believe?)

I'm in my fifties but have been extreme shielding and holding off my vaccination waiting to see which one is least risky for us - has anyone had experiences of getting access to Moderna in the UK in spite of being in an older age group ?

thanks to everyone on Phoenix Rising for being out there to have this converation with! what a lifeline ...
