Seasonal flu is on a rise. This is probably that only. COVID is highly unlikely n so is fever due to vaccine after 6days. Just keep a check on her vitals. No need for worry as far as COVID is concerned

Covid is unlikely as she would have developed antibodies by now from previous infection.
It might be seasonal flu
Still rule out covid by RTPCR
