Male, 34, having something like cold symptom, but all don’t last long. Sore throat for few days (on-off), only yesterday observed that body temp suddenly rise to 37.5 but then quickly drop back after 2 hours, remain between 36.7 -37.0 till now), runny nose also on-off, but mild. During this time NO close contact with any positive case.
Vaccine appointment is in 2 days, can I still proceed to vaccination? As I try to avoid reschedule it last minute.

Hello! Thank you for your enquiry.
Based on current data, mild illness is not a contraindication for Covid vaccination. However, those with moderate to severe illness are advised to reschedule their vaccination to a later date as there is an increased risk of developing severe side effects as well as reduced vaccine efficacy. Please contact a doctor for further assistance regarding this matter. You may also contact JKJAV at 1800-88-828 for more info.
Additionally, you may use our online consultation services for a more detailed assessment.
