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 feeling quite uneasy tonight. It's like I've got chills and I'm shivering. It feels like a fever, but I don't actually have one. There's also some irritation in my throat and I just feel really weak overall. What could be going on and what should I do?

-It sounds like you're experiencing early symptoms of a viral infection or flu-like illness. Keep yourself warm, drink plenty of fluids (warm water or herbal teas), and rest well. If your throat irritation worsens, try saltwater gargles or lozenges. Monit
