If I have a history of allergies, can I get the vaccine?
Vaccines who have suffered from anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction, should be cautious.
If you go to the emergency room or have had a severe allergy that could block your airways, you should tell your doctor before vaccination.
If you receive a vaccination after consultation and have an adverse reaction, you can request compensation from the public health center.
Compensation is decided by a committee specializing in immunization damage compensation.
Can I get vaccinated while fighting cancer?
Cancer patients can also get the vaccine.
However, it is better to avoid it during chemotherapy.
This is because the body can be a lot harder.
If you are taking immunosuppressants, it is best to consult with your doctor before deciding whether to get the vaccine.
Once hit, how long will the effect be?
Experts believe that the effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccine will last a year.
This is possible if there are no new strains of viruses of completely different species.
Even after vaccination, you must wear a mask.
This is essential until the quarantine authorities determine that collective immunity has been created.
How is the proof of vaccination?
You can also get a certificate that you have been vaccinated.
You can get it through the future vaccination website or through the government 24 that you already have.
However, it does not work in other countries.
Because there are no international guidelines or standards yet.
In the long run, vaccine passports may be introduced.
