Is there any connection between CRP levels and getting the COVID vaccine? And if there is, what CRP level should I be looking out for? Also, are there other things I should keep an eye on before getting vaccinated?

CRP (C-reactive protein) is not directly related to covid vaccination. However, it can be used as a marker of inflammation in the body. There is no specific CRP value that determines eligibility for covid vaccination. Before taking the vaccine, it is important to check for any allergies to vaccine components, previous adverse reactions to vaccines, and any current illnesses or infections. It is also recommended to inform the healthcare provider about any medications being taken, especially immunosuppressive medications.

I'm dealing with a fever that's been going on for two days now. The doctor mentioned it's viral, but I'm just wondering how long it'll usually take to get better. Would it be a few more days, or could it last longer?

-Viral fevers usually last 35 days, but rest and hydration can help you recover faster. If the fever persists beyond 5 days or worsens, follow up with your doctor. Take care!
