Covaxin Second dose after infection
My father took first dose covaxin on march 24th. Then fell ill on April 4th with severe cough. He got tested positive for covid . He has since recovered and tested negative as of April 21st. It's time for the second dose now. Is it safe to take the vaccine after an active infection? If not how long should he wait to take the next shot?
