What to do after taking covid-19 vaccine?

           What to do after taking covid-19 vaccine ?

Many people may start to believe that they are completely immune after getting the first dose of the vaccine and go about their business without masks worry-free. However, the two vaccines currently being administered in India have a total of 2 doses. When an individual has finished taking his two doses, and two weeks have passed since their last dose, then a complete immunity against COVID 19 will be developed in their body. Keeping that in mind, here are all the precautions after the COVID vaccine you should be following. All this information is based on the CDC (Centre for Disease Control) guidelines. 

• Don't think that you are completely immune to COVID after vaccination, as no vaccines have a 100 per cent success rate. If you contract COVID after the vaccinations, you may get mild symptoms. There is also the possibility you may be able to transmit COVID to the people who are unvaccinated. 
• Continue to wear a mask in public
• Avoid crowded spaces and stay at least at a distance of six feet from others to keep yourself and people around you safe. 
• If you develop COVID symptoms, do not ignore them thinking you are immune, and consult a doctor immediately.

• Lastly, remember that the vaccination takes a while to kick in, and you will develop immunity a couple of weeks after the second dose. 
• You may develop fever or headaches as a side effect within the first couple of days after vaccination, so you can take Paracetamol tablets and rest. 
• Avoid strenuous physical activity 2-3 days after vaccination.
