[CIS PIDD] [cis-pidd] Patient question

[Church, Joseph]

Colleagues:

I saw a young adult with CVID today.  He has just gotten engaged and asked the following:  when he has children how much of an infectious risk do they present to him?

I guess they present an increased risk for viral respiratory infections, but between appropriate immunizations of the kids and his excellent adherance with SCIG infusions he should be at no increased risk for life-threatening infections.

Any other thoughts?
