To be vaccinated or not !?

2021-07-09 19:15:48
I had contracted COVID virus in End of April and currently taking medications for inflammation in sacroiliac joints for over few weeks which appears to be a post COVID issue. Although the medication doesn't include any corticosteroid yet, is it safe to take the COVID vaccine now? Or should I wait further? If so, how many days/weeks more?

You should wait for 3 months after recovering from Covid before taking the first dose, for the vaccine to be more effective. There is no correlation with your medications, you can take the vaccine once 3 months are done.
