COVID vaccination

My aunt has varicose veins and she is taking medicines for it. She took her first COVID (covishield) dose in March and was infected with COVID in April. She recovered in May and it's been more than 90 days since then. The second dose of covishield was due in July but since 90 days didn't pass after COVID infection, she didn't take the second dose within 129 days. Is it okay to take the second dose now after 140 days since the first dose? Are there anything else we need to consider before taking the vaccine?

So i just wanted to know that can a basic urine. CUlture & sensitivity test show the presence of gonorrhea & chlamydia ( or atleast show or indicate the presence of these both bacterias in urine ? ) or not ? Apart from that does urine culture & sensitivity tests for any type of bacterial infection or it comes with limitations .
