Query regarding 2nd dose of covaxin
I got vaccinated with the first dose of covaxin on 4th January, 2022. A few days back a family member tested positive for covid. I got my antigen test done twice(both times negative) however I have low grade fever. So should I wait for my dose 2 . The scheduled date for it is between 1st and 15th feb.

Like the above doctors have advised, it’s better to wait until your symptoms subside and then go ahead with taking the vaccine

You can ideally take vaccination only 30 days after getting tested positive. Though you had been tested negative but I strongly suggest you to wait for 30 days after your symptoms ( light fever ) and then go ahead with your second dose. Otherwise your infection can flare up.
Next Steps
wait for 30 days after your symptoms.
