@melissadderosa 1/3 VERY IMPORT
.@melissadderosa respectfully my Neurologist who is with .@nyulangone has said I should be vaccinated ASAP. Before we play God by defining who is immunocompromised, it's broad. I have MS, am on immunosuppressive medications & catching a stomach virus put me in

@melissadderosa @nyulangone 2/3
rehab& hosp 4 two months. People with MS can't recover & getting Covid can kill us & will definitely cause permanent increased disabilty, as a stomach virus did to me in 2015. I have lack of sensation in hands & arms. The older we get with MS the harder to recover, I'm 56...

@melissadderosa @nyulangone I'm on an immunosuppressive med monthly, besides the obvious health risk of Covid, there's also a devastating MS progression risk as well. We MUST have access sooner than later. Single mom of 3, getting covid, I won't recover. NY has highest MS pop out of a million in country.

@melissadderosa @nyulangone NYS has a diagnosis of 31 per 10,000 people as of 2017, these are 'known' cases. Our bodies can't fight Covid & MS, both attack the host. I was dxd at 37, I now have relapsing progressive MS. We MUST be on the 1b eligibility list now! Ref: syracuse.com/health/2019/10… Do something!

@melissadderosa @nyulangone @threadreaderapp unroll please

@melissadderosa @nyulangone .@melissadderosa plz read thread I created for u, those with MS must be put on 1B phase immed. Like SO many, like myself, our lives depend on it & most of us too young& don't qualify accord to AM I ELIGIBLE & .@CDCgov really shouldn't decide between us all
