Cancer Australia FAQs COVID-19 Vaccine

I can understand hesitancy but I’m a lot more afraid of the virus if we have a third surge. Not just getting it but possibly passing it on to someone else. We’re not clear till the rest of the world is.  Like many, I never had a thought about getting breast cancer - statistically an awful lot more likely to occur than a very rare type of clotting. Everyone has to make their own choices, but there are risks with flu shots too.  Certainly talk to your oncologist about any increased risks, in regard to your particular case and treatment. Best wishes.
