People who need or have had a heart transplant are more likely to get very sick if they get COVID-19.

Heart transplant candidates should receive COVID-19 vaccination prior to transplantation whenever possible to help ensure an adequate immune response.

Those who have had a heart transplant and are on anti-rejection drugs can and also should get vaccinated against COVID-19.

It is not recommended to withhold immunosuppression prior to or after COVID-19 vaccine administration.
