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've got this sudden sharp pain in my left rib when I breathe in, and it started while I was just sitting at my desk at work. It's been half a day, and it hasn't gone away. I can't take a full deep breath. Do you think this will just go away on its own, or should I be worried?

Ecg and x-ray chest is advised to the patient.
