CONNECTICUT, USA — Question: Our viewer, Emelie recently asked: "If you contract COVID-19, do you have to wait to a certain amount of time to get the vaccine?"
Answer: Dr Syed Hussain, from Trinity Health says you can choose to wait 90 days after a recently Coved infection, but once your acute symptoms have gone away and are past the 14 day isolation period, you are good to go to get vaccinated.
However, Dr Hussain says there is one caveat. “If you’ve received convalescent plasma or antibodies during your recent illness with Covid 19 than you will have to wait for a 90 day period so there is no interaction between the CV vaccine as well as the therapy you received,” explained Dr Hussain.
