Does anyone know if you get the Covid vaccine if you are taking Mycophenolate mofetil?

Yes according to the green book

Page 24 for the table of immunosuppression details and page 32 for the autumn guidelines including the aforementioned table

You would be actively encouraged to have it due being immunosuppressed.

Autumn 2025
The committee has recommended that those eligible for COVID-19 vaccination are:
● adults aged 75 years and over
● residents in a care home for older adults
● individuals aged 6 months and over who are immunosupressed (as defined in the "immunosuppression" row of table 3 and table 4

Table 3 includes "individuals treated with steroid sparing agents such as
cyclophosphamide and mycophenolate mofetil."

Based on that I would say yes.
