I’m not clear that it increases his risk. I am not aware of any research on this topic. We know that people who are immuocompromised themselves shed more virus but I would need to more carefully evaluate the literature to see if a person who is immunocompromised would actually be more susceptible to infection themselves. I just not sure exactly how that would work but I’ll check more into it.
