Second dose of covishield
Hi
Please suggest if I shall take my grandfather for a second dose.
First dose on 10th March (had minimal symptoms just weakness). 8 weeks gap ends around 5 May. So we need to take him to get vaccinated before that. But the covid cases are increasing and we're worried he might contract covid in the hospital.
Also, he has asthma and has been on external oxygen support since a year (10 hours a day on doctor's advice last year).
What's the best decision to take at this point?
