This is not true. Although such persons do have a higher susceptibility
to infection than usual, this rapidly diminishes by 3-6 months after
transplant when the doses of the immunosuppressive medicine are
reduced. So they have to be a little cautious initially, but later,
even though the infection rate remains a little higher, this does
not interfere with normal daily activities. The infections that
do occur can be treated easily in most cases.
