Cold and cough 3 days after 2nd dose
Hello,
This is for my father. He received the second dose of vaccine 3 days ago. Today evening (29th April) he developed a runny nose and is sneezing and coughing occasionally. No fever or sore throat.
Is there a risk of covid infection or could this be a side effect of the vaccine?
We have one family member who is covid positive and quarantined at home.
Thank you!
