I'm wondering, after how many days of having a common cold can my mom safely get her second dose of Covishield? It's already time for her to get it, but she recently had a cold that's mostly under control now, though she's still got a bit of a cough. Is it okay for her to take the vaccine now, or would it be a problem if she delays the second dose because the vaccine isn't available?

I'm really concerned about my test results. My RMP in haematology came back negative, but I'm seeing some strange numbers in the Widal test. The typhi O is at 1160, and the typhi H is 180. Plus, my eosinophils are at 10 in the DLC section. What does all this mean? Should I be worried about these levels?

no need to worry follow your doctors advice
