As per latest government guidelines a person who has recovered from CoViD needs to wait for at least 90 days before going for vaccination.
Next Steps
Follow CoViD appropriate behaviour.
Health Tips
Don't worry as you must have developed antibodies against CoViD-19 virus. Those will protect you for those 90 days. But continue to follow social distancing hand washing and use masks
