Can I get the COVID-19 vaccine if I’m a living kidney donor?
I’m 45 years old and I’ve donated one of my kidney in 2015 and I’m wondering if it is safe for me to get the COVID-19 vaccination.

Actually, COVID19 (the disease) can cause renal failure. Which is really bad in a person with only one kidney. Assuming there are no "red flags" in your medical history such as a history of severe allergic reaction, you really should get the vaccine asap.

Most likely.
but you need to contact your healthcare provider to confirm the risk is worth the reward.

Of course it is, why ever not. There are some people born with one kidney who have jabs when they go abroad.
