Detailed explanation-1: -If you’re unwell on the day of your vaccination or have a fever over 38°C it’s important to delay your COVID-19 vaccine until you’re feeling better.
Detailed explanation-2: -If you are unwell, it is better to wait until you have recovered to have your vaccine, but you should try to have it as soon as possible. You should not attend a vaccine appointment if you are self-isolating, waiting for a COVID-19 test or unsure if you are fit and well.
Detailed explanation-3: -If for any reason you can’t keep your baby’s vaccination appointment, doctors say that a vaccine can be delayed by up to a month without putting a baby’s health at risk. But you should only delay a vaccine after speaking to your paediatrician and not unless you really need to.
Detailed explanation-4: -Evidence continues to build showing that COVID-19 vaccination before and during pregnancy is safe, effective, and beneficial to both the pregnant person and the baby. The benefits of receiving a COVID-19 vaccine outweigh any potential risks of vaccination during pregnancy.
